Bill passes Senate to place Hannah Laighton on Pension List
The Senate passed the bill to place Hannah Laighton on the Pension List by a 31 to 9 vote. She is the 94 year old widow of Captain Isaac Davis, the first officer who fell in the American Revolution, and she is severely poor. The report notes she should have been on the Pension List fifty years ago and calls for Congress not to ignore the outrage.
