"RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE SALEM LIGHT INFANTRY COM- PANY FORMED MAY, 1805. PRINTED BY JOSHUA CUSHING, SALEM, 1805."


The enjoyment of life, liberty and property, our constitution ac- knowledges as the birth-right of every American citizen. This inval- uable inheritance, which we have received unimpaired, we are under the most sacred obligations to transmit inviolate. To this end every method has been provided which the jealous wisdom of our patriotic ancestors could suggest. Arms are placed in our hands, and we are directed by the most evident principles of duty to acquire that skill in the use of them which shall render invincible the courage of freemen fighting in the cause of liberty.


Actuated by these honorable sentiments, we, the subscribers, do agree to form ourselves into an association, to be called "The Salem Light Infantry ;" and, for the well ordering of the affairs of the com- pany, and to strengthen the bond of our union, do hereby establish, in addition to the general provisions of the law, the following articles, viz. :


ARTICLE I.


The company shall consist of one captain, one lieutenant, one en- sign, four sergeants, four corporals, and not more than sixty-four pri- vates, exclusive of the two drummers and two flfers.
