The Militia Ballot

 

“The militia balloting was finished yesterday, in the presence of Sheriff Corbett, His Honor Judge Draper, Sydney Warner, Esq., and the County Attorney. The following are the names of those drafted in Lennox and Addington.”

 

 

Are You Drafted?

 

   Since the balloting for the militia force commenced, not a little excitement is observable amongst those of the young men of the city who are liable for service. The universal question asked is “Are you drafted?” It is a totally erroneous idea to call it a draft; the latter is an Americanized expression and its similarity to that of our cousins on the other side of the line have made it in vogue here.

   It is a “Ballot,” not a draft; and in the Act the word “draft” is not mentioned. As many are in ignorance as to what is required of them when chosen among the service men, a few words may ease the minds of those who are liable to shoulder the musket.

   The militia force is divided into 1st class service men, 2nd class service men and reserve men.

   In the 1st are included those between the years of eighteen and forty-five, who are unmarried, or widowers without children.

   In the 2nd class are those between the same ages as first, but who are married men or widowers with children.

   The 3rd class, or reserve men, are those between forty-five and sixty years of age.

   Each battalion so organized shall continue so organized for a period of three years, when a new ballot takes place, the three years being counted from the time of actual service. As it is now, the rolls are very incomplete and arrangements must be made to obtain a more perfect assessment. There are of course a great many exemptions, such as officers and men of our volunteer force, &c, and all of which parties interested can see in the Statutes of 1863.
