Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pennsylvania, Political, Governmental, Military and Civil: Military Volume The military history of Pennsylvania dates from the year 1747, although in the charter to William Penn, the Governor was given the authority to levy, muster, and train men, to make war upon and pursue the enemy, even beyond the limits of the Province. That the early authorities felt the necessity of armed forces is evidenced from the fact that in 1702, only twenty years after the granting of the charter, Lieutenant Governor Hamilton asked the Assembly to enact a bill for providing what may come against us by land or by sea nothing, however, was done under it in the way of organizing any military force for defense. Lieutenant Governor Evans, a few years later, urged a similar law, and sent to the Assembly a form of an act for establishing and regulating militia, but the idea was unpopular, and failed of passage. Several similar bills were also defeated, yet the Assembly occasion ally appropriated funds for the King's use, for the purchase of bread, beef, pork, flour, wheat, and 'other grain' for the maintenance of those who voluntarily offered to bear arms in the defense of the Province. Franklin says the other grain meant black grains, otherwise gunpowder, and While the Assembly would not sanc tion the purchase of munitions of war, no Governor was ever charged with appli cation of public moneys in making use of them for this purpose. So far as the Assembly was concerned there was no provision made for raising and maintaining an armed force, that provision being vested in the Governor by provision of the charter. Benjamin Franklin, in the year 1747, was largely instrumental in effecting a military association, which was entirely a voluntary organization, made up of about of the most influential men of the Province, and with this influence the total enrollment was in a short time increased to The following year the aggre gate membership in the Associated Companies, by which name the organization became known, was horse, foot, and artillery, each armed and equipped at personal expense, and the officers chosen from the members. Franklin was one of the original colonels, but being unable to serve, another was elected in his stead. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Government, Federal and State: In Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, and Indiana, 1861-1865 The Civil War will afford ample ground for historical research and study for generations to come. Massachusetts is far ahead of other States in the preservation and arrangement of all records, especially those in manuscript. Her "shoestring files" contain the original story of the stalwart doings in those days, comprising several hundred volumes of manuscript, well arranged and kept under lock and key. Careful search was made here; and I was indebted to Governor Crane, Mr. Hamlin, and the other officials, for constant courtesy. The archives at Albany and at Harrisburg were examined. The excellent biography by Foulke sufficiently lighted up and colored the extensive correspondence of Morton as it was set forth in the "Official Records of the Rebellion." This enormous collection of printed matter is a mine of crude ore, and from it will be drawn the maturing history of our pregnant Civil War. James Ford Rhodes's account is exhaustive, absolutely impartial, and very graphic. I have used freely his widespread authorities. I differ in construing the facts at some important points, as will appear in the following pages. Very likely the difference was in that I could not rise to the heights of his sedate charitableness.
