Chapter 165 of the Acts of the 20th General Assembly, made it the duty of
each assessor in the State, to report the names of all ex soldiers, sailors and
marines, living in his township or town at the time of making the assessment
which was the latter part of January, February and March 1885.
Owing to the fact that the assessors were burdened with an unusual
amount of labor in taking the Agricultural and Mechanical census, in addi-
tion to the ordinary assessment, it is thought that the lists returned are very
imperfect, and the Ajt. General of the State has returned these lists to the
County Auditors for correction, as it is very desirable to have them as full
and accurate as possible.
Every person who sees this list is requested to examine it carefully and if
they discover errors of any kind, omission of soldier's names, or find the name
of any person who was not a soldier on this list, they are requested to report
the same, together with the proper corrections to be made to the County Aud-
itor of Grundy County.
The above list is not in the best form for publication, but is in the form
required by the Ajt. General, and as the corrections are wanted immediately,
there has not been time to arrange the names alphabetically, or to give them
by townships as otherwise should have been done.
