was greatly respected by his medical brethren for his skill, his accurate judgment, his extensive and exact knowledge of the medical sciences, and he was unusually beloved by them, for he was never known to sully the reputation of another by an ungenerous remark. His carefulness in whatever concerned individual character was extraordinary. If he could not speak favorably he was silent."
ROBERT BURNS, son of George and Anna (Adams) Burns, was born in Hudson, Dec. 12, 1792. In his childhood the family removed to Rumney. He studied medicine with Dr. Ezra Bartlett of Warren, teaching school at times during his professional studies. In 1815 he attended lectures at Dartmouth Medical School, but did not graduate. While at Dartmouth he was called to Warren to attend those stricken with the spotted fever. He remained in Warren in active practice until 1818, when he removed to Hebron, where he remained seventeen years. He became a Fellow of the New Hampshire Medical Society in 1824. He was a State senator, 1831, and was elected a representative in the Twenty- third and Twenty-fourth congresses, serving from 1833 to 1837. In the spring of 1835, and immediately preceding his second election to Congress, he removed from Hebron to Plymouth.
At this time Dr. Jonathan Robbins was deceased, and Dr. John Bailey was preparing to remove from this town, but he was asso- ciated over twenty years with Dr. Samuel Rogers and Dr. Samuel Long, whom he survived.
Dr. Burns secured a lucrative practice, and was often called to the neighboring towns. He enjoyed the confidence of the public and was esteemed by the profession. He was a good collector, and in the management of his financial affairs he was successful. In town and social affairs he entertained decided opinions and firmly adhered to his convictions. If he was not a popular leader, he constantly exercised a potent influence among his townsmen. He died June 26, 1866.

THE MILITIA.
XXXI. THE MILITIA.
I MMEDIATELY succeeding the Revolution, the military spirit of the people was spontaneous and universal. Rejoicing in the fruits of victory and proud of the conquest of the patriot army, our fathers hastened to write into the constitution of the State, " A well-regulated militia is the proper, natural, and sure defense of a State." The nurture of the train band found frequent expression in the laws of the State and in the efficient work of organization and discipline. Celebrations and gala days were not complete without a military company, and on greater occasions the dignity and enthusiasm of the assembled people were sup- ported by a regiment. In the measured beat of the drum and in the piercing notes of the fife the youth were inspired, while the veterans of war again listened with pride and heroic bearing to the grand orchestra of the Revolution.
The militia acts of 1780 and 1786 made provision for an in- creased number of regiments and amended the regulations from the necessities of war to the basis of peace. The age limit of the active was reduced from fifty to forty years, and several years later the junior limit was changed from sixteen to eighteen years. In the reorganization of the regiments, the historic eleventh regiment, commanded by Col. David Hobart, and, after June 14, 1779, by Lieut .- Col. David Webster, became the fourteenth, retaining the merit of good service and the honors of war. Plymouth remained a constituent part of the fourteenth regiment until the repeal of the militia laws in 1851.
From an early date in the Revolution and until 1792 the militia was divided into two classes, - the train band and the alarm list. The alarm list included males under seventy years of age who
480
HISTORY OF PLYMOUTH.
were exempt from service in the train band. The captains of the companies in this class of the militia were given the rank of colonel, the lieutenants were lieutenant-colonels, and the ensigns were majors. Until 1792 the active militia or train band was organized in companies and regiments, and officers were commissioned in accordance with laws and regulations mainly matured during the Revolution. Under the act of Dec. 28, 1792, the militia of the State was reorganized, and the number of the regiments was increased to twenty-seven. From 1792 to 1816 the unit of organ- ization was a battalion, and two battalions constituted a regiment. During this period there were no colonels in New Hampshire. The commander of a regiment was commissioned a lieutenant- colonel commandant, and the staff of the governor received similar commissions.
In a perusal of the lists of officers of the fourteenth regiment it should be borne in mind that for twenty-four years, 1792-1816, the field officers were a lieutenant-colonel commandant and two majors. From 1792 to 1808, Plymouth, Holderness, Rumney, Campton, and Thornton constituted the first, and New Chester, Bridgewater, Cockermouth, Alexandria, and Hebron the second battalion of the fourteenth regiment. In 1808, at the organi- zation of the thirty-fourth regiment, the second battalion was joined to the new regiment, and after this date, Plymouth, Holder- ness, and Rumney constituted the first, and Campton, Thornton, Ellsworth, Woodstock, Waterville, and Lincoln the second bat- talion. In the revision of the militia laws in 1816, the earlier titles of the field officers - colonel, lieutenant-colonel, and major - were restored.
For many years the May training and the fall musters were holidays. The drum, the fife, and the boy were unrestrained. The public, pleased with the pomp and display of military pageants, failed not in a manifestation of approval and enthusiasm. In the progress of time an era of peace and a growing spirit of commer- cialism softened the heroic temper of the people, while the doc- trine of non-resistance and the flying doves from the cotes of

peace societies soothed into slumber an early enthusiasm in mili- tary affairs. The militia law of the State was repealed in 1851. From 1784 to 1792 the field officers of the fourteenth regiment, with date of commission, were: -
