The Calvin vagrant law of Georgia is
just the thing We need in South Carolina
as there are enough loafing negroes hang

and which we will see the necessity OF
before always, is that any person who
owns rifle must give bond to keep the
same, except officers of the law, military
or other companies commissioned by the
Governor, or show to the satisfaction OF
the board of registration that he is entitled
to keep one, just as he would have to
show that he was entitled to receive a
registration certificate.
