The variou" warrants certificat es and scrips wich may be used in the acquriement of title to pub lic lands are know under the gen eral term of ' Land Scrips." The most common of these are Revolutionary Bounty Land Scrip issued in satisfaction of Virginia Land Warrants; Military Bounty Land "Warrants, issued for service in wars prior to March o, 1855; Agricultural College Scrip, issued lo the several States to aid in the establishment of institutions for tn.w.i.;.. ofrrinnH., n.wi ..in,.i,n.,. ics; supreine court and surveyor's cenera serins issued in lieu of guicr.u scrips, luea in itu oi southern private grants sold by the government. l hese warrants or sc-r.ps can be used in the purchase of lands j ust as cash mignt be used, and fees to registers and receivers are re- but as they cannot be sold for quit that much. Another class of scrip, known as certificates of deposits, is that issued on deposits for surveys. The face value is 1.25 per acre, but as they cannot now be used outside of the State in wich the I land surveyed is situated, thev ! annot be sold for that amount, I III" l ill I t iiSM-n imi n urii 44rii would serve. Several scrips of private char- acter not locatable outside certain named States principally Flor - ida have been issued, "but are ! not cfinsideVed of Miffieient gener - a ,nterest to merit 'specific des j criptmn. Soldier's additional homestead 'certificates will take any vacant , unappropriated, unreserved, pub- H(; m ms b(.on sur;.,V,d. These certificates were issued to soldiers, sailors, and marines, who had made homesteads of less than 100 acres prior to June '2'1, ls4, that they might be placed on an equal footing with their comrades who were by law allowed to enter ! u) l"rt Thc juahce of the ! san,,e wns (llt1in!u;(I "XJ.; and i)ersons entitled to additional lfimlu !iri tmw rcMinreil to I'd in ( the local land ofliee and make their additional entries in person. The law forbids the transfer of . uiusi-a-iiim.ni-!!, um hiuh is evaded by means of two powers of attorney one to locate and an- other to sell the land. The value of these certificates is $30 and up- ward per acre. nor wtp 1 here are several private scrips, varying in quantity .f) - tli-ii s.ll ! ju-re ami ' cjr:, i , from 40 to from .$30 to one Ciirard ' Serin th.nt will take mil v offered i . . unonVrcd surveyed land, lie 1 ..f il... 1 1 ...... ,Kt.... iiieni 01 ine liimi is 11 itiiiuiiuu precedent to location. A 'large amountofthis scrip was stolen from the Ueneral land ofliccsome years ago after it had been located and when one of the stolen pieces make its appearance now, the scrip is canceled ahd the location declared void. In numerous cases it has been ascertained that powers of attor ney have been obtained fron the Indians through fraud, and the locations have thus been defeated. Notwithstanding these circumstn ccs it is worth from $35 to M5 per acre. Porterfield scrip is the only scrip that will take land within an incorporated city or town.
