Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Adjutant-General of the State of North Carolina for the Year, 1895 Despite hostile legislation and the lack of that interest inspired by the prospect of a season of instruction and camp experience, the general condition of the Guard has been one of steady improvement. For several years, owing to the increased cost of transportation, &c, the annual appropriation by the State for encampment purposes has been too small to admit of carrying more than two (2) regiments into camp during the year; so that under the most favorable circumstances only two regiments each year could expect to receive the benefit of camp instruction and experience, the others being dependent upon their home drills and exercises for such instruction and information as they could obtain. But even the limited opportunity for practical instruction previously enjoyed was taken from the Guard by the action of the last Legislature, who not only greatly reduced the pitiful appropriation already granted for the support of the troops, but took away from them altogether the annual sum hitherto granted by law for annual encampment. It was apparently hoped and believed that such manifest hostility to the Guard would result in its voluntary and speedy disbandment; but the troops, true to their past record of loyalty to their State and its interests, and of faithful service always cheerfully rendered without question of reward, stood firmly by their colors and organization, manifesting a spirit of patriotism and self-sacrifice which should win for them the esteem and gratitude of all good citizens.
