      service in the Civil War, neighbors testified "that she owns a small
      house of only 2 rooms worth not over $100. That see owns only one cow
      and 2 hogs and 6 pigs & no other personal property except household
      goods. We also know that she works at Weaving Carpets and other such
      work for the support of her self and family, and we further know that she
      has during the last two years had and received aid from Erie Post No 311
      GAR and also from the board of County Comissioners of Neosho
      County, Kansas."
