“When a man dies and the widow
marries again, and the second hus
band dies, is she the widow of the first
husband, or of the second one, or of
both?” is asked by an exchange. That
was the conundrum recently before
the pension authorities. The widow
of a federal soldier was drawing a
pension as such widow. She married
again and the pension stopped. Then
the second husband died and the wid
ow made application for reinstate
ment as the widow of the first hus
band, and the claim was allowed.
Consequently, under that ruling, a
widow can never be a widow of any
but her first husband.
