Congressman Rogers has introduced a bill to pension Mary A. Samuels of Clinton Street, Buffalo, widow of Lewis Samuels, late Lieutenant in the Sixty second New-York Volunteers. Gen. Rogers says that if the the G. A. R. would appoint a competent surgeon to examine all applicants for pensions, who claim that they have been unjustly dealt with at the hands of the Government surgeon, he would have a much greater chance to obtain favorable action from Congress in cases where the applicants have been rejected by the pension authorities.
