two hundred dollars, who shall volunteer to make up the quota of nine-months men; and to each married man who shall thus volunteer the sum of one hundred dollars; and to the dependants of said married man an additional sum equal to that granted by the State. December 2d, Voted, that the town of Truro make all the effort that is in its power to raise volunteers to fill its quota of nine-months men for the military service of the United States, and that Frederick A. Gross, Amasa Paine, and A. H. Newton be a committee to draft some plan for raising the aforesaid volunteers. This committee reported that the selectmen be authorized to offer a bounty of two hundred dollars to any of the citizens of the town who would volunteer to make up said quota, and in case they fail to procure the required number within a reasonable time, then they may use their own discretion in obtaining them elsewhere. The report was accepted. Voted, that we, as a town, disapprove of a draft. 1863. February 4t
