Militia Serjeants Denied Relief at Exeter Sessions
At Exeter Castle the quarter sessions ruled that men who have served three years in the county militia and do not seek discharge are volunteers and thus barred from county stock relief. Militia serjeants are deemed able to support families in absence, so no relief orders will be granted. Also reports from Morpeth and Salisbury note candidates and a marriage in Southampton. An Wiltshire session tried four felons, two soldiers among them. An erratum corrects a 3 per cent computation.
