REFUND OF FEES ON ACCOUNT OF M I L I T A R Y SCHOLARSHIPS (9) A statement that on account of the difficulty of verifying service and other papers presented by claimants for military scholarships under the act of the last General Assembly during the pressure of registration, the Registrar directed all applicants to pay their fees and informed them that these fees would be refunded as soon as their cases were reached and verified.
