| An Act for reviving and continuing for a limited time, and amending two several Acts therein mentioned for better regulating the Militia of this Province. (8th March, 1815.) |
55 George III Chapter 1 |
1815 |
An act to continue a former act originally passed in 1803 “An Act for the better regulation of the Militia of this Province, and for repealing certain Acts or Ordinances therein mentioned,” which was amended in 1812. The original act declares that all men between the ages of eighteen and sixty are to be militia men, bound to serve in their division's militia. The amended act amends the maximum age from sixty to fifty. The act also outlines who is to be excepted from this law, how order is to be maintained, and how these men are to be enrolled and trained. This act makes it lawful for men drawn for service to present a substitute in their stead. These acts are to continue in force until 1816, or should a war be declared, until the end of the war. |
