Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Adjutant General of the State of North Carolina: For the Year 1893 My first care, after assuming the duties of office, was to ascertain the condition of the State Guard, its numbers, equipment, efficiency and general knowledge and observance of the laws, rules and regulations issued and in force for its government. Owing to the absence of all letter-books, reports, correspondence or records pertaining to the Department (except the order-book and roster of commissioned officers), the only recourse for information was to the printed official reports of the Departments for the previous years. A careful examination of these showed such a wide discrepancy of statement and opinion that it soon became apparent that, in order to obtain the desired information, direct correspondence, investigation and inspection under the direction of this Department were necessary. This, of course, involved time and labor, but sufficient information was finally obtained by which a very fair idea of the condition of the Guard was reached. The personel of the Guard has always been most excellent, composed as it is of the flower of the youth of the State, but they were found to be, in many cases, not more than half uniformed, and in some instances even the uniforms worn out and unserviceable, while some of the best companies were found to be equipped with arms that had been condemned as useless and unserviceable years ago. Under the Revised Code of Regulations, published in April, 1892, new forms of books and records for the use of the Guard had been prescribed, but they had never been prepared, printed or distributed. Under such circumstances a high standard of discipline was not to be expected. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
