Egleton a Special Examiner of the Pension Office, personally appeared Michael Brown ~, who being by me first duly sworn to answer truly all interrogatories propounded to himduring this Special Examination of aforesaid Pension Claim, deposes and says: : His age is 48, P. O. is Seventy Six, Clinton Co. Kentucky. Occupation - Farmer. Was Private of Co. C 12th Ky. Infantry.

I knew Eli Brown from several years before the war, and he was a stout man.

After Eli Brown came out of the Army I could not say what his condition was. I can’t remember that I saw him more than once after his return from the Army.

I did not work on the Rail Road at the time he did. And I don’t know anything at all about his getting hurt.

If he was injured while working on the Rail Road I have no knowledge of it. I did not work on the same but a few days.

I do not know when he died or the cause of his death.

I am not related to client and I am not interested in the case.

Q: Have you understood the
