The following volunteers in the Independent Companies of Albemarle
County bound themselves to the ensuing Resolves by subscribing
thereto:
1. Should they fail or fly back, they should be held unworthy of
the rights of freemen, and as inimical to the cause of America.
2. Any one elected as Captain, Lieutenant, or Ensign, and refusing
to serve, shall pay, the first £25, the second £15, and the third
£10, for the use of the Company.
3. To obey the officers by themselves elected, muster four times a
year, provide gun, shot-pouch and powder horn, and appear on duty
