ALABAMA OLD
MILITARY LAWS
Copy of Bylaws of Mobile
Rifles, Drawn in 1887,
is Found.

Capt. John Callaghan of the Mobile
Rifles, has made a find of which he
is most proud, and of which there is
being much talk in military circles,
says a special from Mobile to the
Montgomery Advertiser.
In examining his old desk at the ar
mOTy the other day, it was found that
it contained a hidden shelf On that
shelf was a printed copy Of the first
constitution and bylaws of the com
pany, drawn up on February 2, 1885,
and revised on January Il, 1887. The
printed copy bears the printers date
of 1912.
Many Of the provisions made in
these bylaws would make the citizen
soldier of today take a great deal more
interest in the affairs of the company,
and il is certain that no man would
have permitted him sci: TO enlist UT
less he meant to pay strict attention to
his duties. or that he had large
bank roll with which to pay the fines
that would be inflicted on him.
The fines for failure to put in an
appearance at dress parade were, for
commissioned officer. 81; a nonCOm-
missioned officer, So; and for A pri-
vate, So.
For failure to appear at regular
drills an officer would have TO pay S.;
a non-commissiOned officer 81. and a
private, 81. Absence from company
meetings meant that an officer would
have to pay 50. a non-commissioned
officer 81 and a private 80 cents. These
fines were all enforceable. and arrear-
ages meant the suspension from men,
ssership, but il did not excuse the men,
ser from his obligation to perform
military service
There are a number of other inter
esting things in the book, and ii IS
Capt. CaIlaghan's intention TO have a
number Of copies of it made.

Why? Simply because there five hundred

this shop existed until they those advertise

CeIIent street location too.
This is a concrete case, the facts of which I
personally know. The Englshman depended upon
the quality of his goods and his beautifully crested

perpendicular backed dress-parade clerks; all of

the whole show into the newspaper; admission free
