ONLY 123 HEROE8 OF 8IXTIE8 LIVE IN 80UTH CAROLINA Columbia, Juno 5.?The gray-clad veterans of the sixties meeting here . for their national reunion in August Will find Father Time has gleaned heavily among the warriors who returned to South Carolina. The state, claiming the first shot for the cause of the Confederacy, echoed within her boundary, will do well to furnish a hundred representatives in the parade fch?,c features the reunion to open August 80. Year by year the state appropriation for pensions has dwindled as the ranks of the valiant warriors of another generation lingered to teach the youngsters the rebel yell and occasionally meet down memory lane with another stalwart of the conflict between the states. There were 2,625 veterans on the pension rolls in 1926 but each succeeding mouth saw them laid to rest here and there over the state until last year only 261 remained. The reaper's scythe has struck a - i faster tmepo in the past few months as only 123 warriors are now receiving the annual $240. The widows?many young in comparison with their husbands?have however, been thinned by the years. In 1925 there were 4,960. In 1937 2,148 were living. This year 1,430 are receiving pensions. The pensions for veterans and widows aggregated $748,100 in 1926, $372,680 in 1937 and this year they approximate $225,000. For the year beginning July 1, the state has approximately $271,997.
