As an army without cavalry is, in all countries, a very
defective machine, but in this province, circumstanced as it
is, it is impossible to carry on the service, with any
tolerable degree of credit and success, without a certain
proportion of this species of troops, general Lee begs leave
to address himself to the young gentlemen of the different
counties, entreating that they will form themselves into
companies of Light Dragoons, consisting of one Captain, one
Lieutenant, one Cornet, two Serjeants, two Corporals, and a
Trumpet or Horn-Sounder. . . [10 lines]
