ing :
This excellent company was or

ing valuable service to the State.
P. M. Edmondston was the first
commanding oflicer, anel Captain
Norfleet Smith, commanded the no

eral of the State suard, a3 their
captain. They are now commanded
by Captain G. S. White.
Lieutenant W. E. Whitemore and
private B. E. Pope , served with the
Riflemen throughout tho entire wr.r
between the States, and are still en
thusiastic members. The roster of
the company is thirty-seven , rank
