L'mOiIle County in excess in every town
The number Of men called for from the whol
State is about 400, Ihe,e figures are semt.ofiica
and are probably accarate,-at least nearly enouei
so to furnish basis for the action Of towns.
And in this connection we invite the attention
of these deficient towns to The phraseoIogy Of tn
call, which plainly directs draft in the town
deficient on the 18th OF April, whether the quot
OF the State be full or not. 1t is important an,
necessary that these men should be raised the,
are nee led to ill up the l7th regiment arc
towns cannot do better than set about the worl
at once. And even il towns are not deficient /
will be the part Of prudence for them to still
continue to raise more men. The men can b,
ised more readily and for smaller bounty nov
'han when another call ,halI actually come, anc
wise towns will lay by a store OF credits ,gains
that day.
