SEC. 4. The officer making the enrollment shall at the time

days after receiving such notice file a written statement of
such exemption, verified by affidavits, in the office of the clerk
of the Superior Court of Baltimore City, or in the office of the
clerk of the Circuit Court of the county in which the enroll-
ment is made. Such clerk shall thereupon, if such persons be
exempted according to law, mark the word "exempt" opposite
his name; and the remainder of all thus enrolled, and not thus
found to be exempt, shall constitute the militia of the State,
and such clerk shall transmit a copy of such corrected roll to
the Adjutant General and the commanding officer of each or-
ganization in the National Guard. The heads of the fire and
police departments in each city or town shall, whenever an
enrollment is ordered, file in the office of the clerk above
named a certified list of the names of all persons in their com-
mand or departments.

SEC. 5. All persons shall, upon the application of any person
making such enrollment, give the name of and all other
proper information concerning any person within their knowl-
edge liable to be enrolled, under penalty of $10 for every con-
cealment or false information, or refusal to give the informa-
tion requested, to be recovered with costs in the name of the
State in any court or before any justice of the peace having
criminal jurisdiction. The officer making the enrollment shall
within ten days report all persons who shall fail or neglect to
give information to the Adjutant General.

SEC. G. The militia of the State shall be divided into two
classes—the active and the reserve militia. The active militia
shall consist of the organized and uniformed military forces
of the State, which shall be known as the Maryland National
Guard; the reserve militia shall consist of all those liable to
services in the militia, but not serving in the National Guard.
