 troops, that every one may know how he shall have to behave 

 himself. 



First : every soldier shall without any resistance obey and 

 respect the officers appointed to command him, or are to be

 Ordinance shall receive corporal punishment as an example 

 to others.

 to preserve carefully his musket, gunpowder, lead, matches, 

 and other arms, which he is ordered to carry or shall in 

 future be ordered to carry ; without wasting the same 

 through wantonness or carelessness ; on pain as above.
