With these words a stooped and grizzled Inmate of the Soldiers* Home handed Mrs. A. J. Montague yesterday a formidable looking legal document conveying to the Home for Confederate Women, in the event of his death, the title to a modest estate of $200?the accumulation of a lifetime. The old man had sought out Mrs. Montague at the Women's Home to sdd to his servtee on the field the final gift of his life's sav? ings, j To all remonstrances the veteran re? plied firmly that the State was now taking care of him In the fullness of his years, and that he needed nothing further.
