ReasonPension
Other information

Hunt to her, 27 February 1914, p.1: says that he 'regret' that can't help over the fact that refused a pension between Sept 1910 and August 1913.

p.2, Maria to AH, 22 Feb 1914: was too invalided to travel to a Magistrate to take the oath to get naturalised. 'I had to wait such a long time until it was convenient for a Magistrate to come to my house.' It turns out her husband's naturalisation should always have applied to her, and wants it backdated over the 5 years she was delayed.
