[NOT FOR PUBLICATION]

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST CIRCUIT

No. 97-1814

ALICE BURNHAM,

Plaintiff, Appellant,

v.

UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS, ET AL.,

Defendants, Appellees.

APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE

[Hon. Joseph A. DiClerico, U.S. District Judge]

Before

Torruella, Chief Judge,

Selya and Stahl, Circuit Judges.

Alice Burnham on brief pro se.

Paul M. Gagnon, United States Attorney, and T. David Plourde,

Assistant United States Attorney, on brief for appellee.

February 26, 1998

Per Curiam. Upon careful review of the briefs and

record, we conclude that the district court properly entered

summary judgment substantially for the reasons stated in the

order dated April 22, 1997, and we perceive no abuse of

discretion in the denial of appellant's motion for

reconsideration or relief from judgment.

Affirmed. See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
