To the AUTHOR and the Militia Debate in London
A London letter protests that many counties fail to provide militia officers as ordered and urges timely action. It argues standing armies threaten liberty, praises a well regulated militia, and cites Machiavelli and authority to claim property owners should defend rights. A warning from the London Gazette closes with a note on a morning meeting at the Earl of Holderness’s office.
