Confederate Pensioners in Anson and Ashe Counties, Jan. 1, 1925

Confederate Pensioners

As the third installment of the list of pensioners furnished by Maj. Baxter Durham, State Auditor, the Jeffersonian this week gives its readers the list for Anson and Ashe counties. Readers in these quarters are asked to study the list carefully. If there appears any names of persons who are not entitled to draw pensions, they are asked to notify the clerk of court of the county in which the pensioner is supposed to reside.

It has been intimated that several thousands of dollars of pension funds are misappropriated annually. The Jeffersonian desires that if such an evil exists that it be exposed. This is the reason for the publication of the pension list.

Here are the lists for the two counties named. Others will follow:
