To the Senate and House of Representatives.
GENTLEMEN: - An act entitled "An act for the "relief of the widow of the Hon. C. A. Yancy," which originated in the House of Representatives, is herewith returned without my approval. My objection to it lies in the fact that it undertakes to appropriate money from the Treasury to private use without assigning a reason in justification. To accommodate my sense of duty to the wishes of the Legislature, I respectfully suggest that the grounds of the appropriation be embodied in the bill so as to place me in possession, officially, of the merits of the case.
J. L. ALCORN, Governor.
