War Claims Bill Back in Congress for Maryland
Washington reports the Omnibus War Claims bill, carrying about 40,923 for Maryland citizens and churches damaged by Union troops in the Civil War, has been reintroduced by Chairman T W Sims. The move aims to clear long fought battles in Congress with Democrats holding the Senate and hopes for action next December. Key Maryland items include estates and church claims across Frederick, Montgomery, and nearby counties.
