Acknowledgement Gyger has made
somewhat unusual ruling. 1t Is that the
department valves its right to demand
that officers who wish to be placed upon
the retired list must have served ten years
cOnsecutively. They will be retired at
their wish after they have served ten years,
whether cOnsecutively or not. The ruling
was made necessary by former Adlutant-
General kingsley's order. which mustered
out the entire guard OF the State By that
order many officers found themselves
within few months OF the required ten
years service. but were not able to NIL the
term, and were barred from the retired
list. 1t IS understood that IN sueh cases
the Adjutant-General Will appoint the ag-
grieyed officers to purely honorary POSI-
tions, that they may NIL out the required
term. and go on the retired list.
