528 Journal and Correspondence
company therein, and advise me as soon as possible, that the
General may be enabled to lay the plan before the Council of
Safety for their approbation, without which it will not perhaps
be put in practice, you are to have the effective arms in your
company valued by the Commissioned officers or any three of
them and marked B.i.&c and so progressively upwards taking
a list thereof with the owners names, opposite its number that
the same may be replaced or paid for by the Publick if lost or
rendered useless in the service. It would be adviseable to
place the best of these arms in the first division to be delivered
over occasionally to the second, third & fourth, you will be
pleased to loose no time in arraining your Compy and
acquainting each person to what division they belong, if your
Company should be incomplete the deficiency should fall in
the last division as it can be easily supplied from those who
have been in service before them &c.
