Militia Matters.

The Ransom guard GO. d. of St.
Adams has been mustered out of the
state militia after ten years service.
The Ransom guard was originally or
ganized in June, 1851, and continued as
an independent company until the
opening of the rebellion, when the ser
vices of the company were promptly
offered to the government and were
of volunteers. In June, 1872, the com
pany was recognized, this being the
second company to organize under the
militia act of that year creating the
state national guard, the new roll com
priSing many old veterans and "A num-
Der of the original members. The com
pany made an innovation by adopting
il uniform similar to that of the New
York city regiments. In 1876 the com
ing one battalion of I02 men under
Major Newton, F. 5. Stranahan com
handing the second company. The st.
Adams brigade band of twenty-siX
pieces was merged in the command
and accompanied the guard on all Oc-
casions. Among these occasions were

ing for ten days on Paramount park

ment in 1873, and at the Yorktown
celebration in October, 1881, and wa:

days. The last meeting of the guarC
as military organization will be helC
this Thursday evening, and Quarter
master General Idle will 90 to St Al

of the company.
The Messenger. from which tn

OF Captain +. :. Stranahan since July
