- Summary
- The General Assembly of New Hampshire has passed a bill to bring the Continental Army in that state up to quota by calling on men to volunteer for the war. If this is not sufficient, men will be drafted for one year. A number have now been engaged for the war and new orders are out to complete the quota. The Assembly has noted the other acts passed by Congress and have passed an act for raising the state quota of $45,000,000.
