Soldier's Application for Pension
July 2, 1906

Samuel J. Taylor applied for pension, age 82, a resident at Howellsville 
postoffice, Robeson County, NC. He enlisted in Company K, 40th Regiment NC 
Troops in the spring of 1862.

The following is a summary of information found in the application:

Soldier was at Fort Fisher and Bald Head, North Carolina.

He was not wounded but for some cause during the war his fingers and hands 
began to draw up and his eye sight is such that he is totally disabled and can 
do no work. This change in his hands was caused by exposure during the war.

Physician remarks: The applicant is totally unfit to do any manual labor. 

Application was approved.
