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.
