To the Auditor of the State of North Carolina:
We certify that we have carefully examined the application of
Jennette I. Tart
the widow of the late
Henry Tart
,
who enlisted in Company B ,
Major Young Batallion Regiment, North Carolina State Troops,
for a pension
under the provisions of an act entitled "An Act to amend chapter 674 of the Laws of
1907, for the relief of
certain Confederate Soldiers, Sailors, and Widows," ratified March 8,1909, and the
proofs filed in support
thereof; that we are satisfied that the said
Jennette I Tart
is the widow of the late
Henry Tart
who enlisted in
Company
B ,
Major Young Batallion Regiment of North Carolina State Troops, on or
about the 8 or 10th day of May
186 2 . We certify the following allegations set forth in her
application to be true, namely: That she is now
a widow; that she is, and has been for twelve months immediately preceding this
Application for Pension, a
bona fide resident of North Carolina; that she holds no office under the United
States, or under any State
or County, from which she is receiving the sum of three hundred dollars as fees or as
salary annually; that
she is not worth in her own right, or the right of her late husband; property at its
assessed value for taxation
to the amount of two thousand dollars ($2,000), nor has she disposed of property of
such value by gift or vol-
untary conveyance since the 11th of March, 1885, and therefore her application is correct
and just under
the act.
