At a large meeting of the S citizens of the same District, the fol- ja lowing resolutions, after calling on the ei Convention to dissolve the Executive nj Council and then themselves, were passed: * "r" \ '' 5 "Resolved, That the appointment of d field officers by the Governor and Council, to command the first corps of reserves, is unjust to . the fathers of sons Cl who have been gallantly fighting the battles of the country for the last eiglh- T teen months; that said appointments ^ are without Constitutional authority, and are repudiated by the people of this district. Resolved, That we invite our fellow- If citizens of the first corps of reserves, r: to meet with us on a day to be fixed, in c electing field officers to command them, , and to disregard ail orders from officers appointed by unconstitutional authority. 11 Resolved, That we will not turn out d as regiments or companies, or obey any orders from persons assuming to act as n officers, unless elected by ourselves ac- . cording to the laws of South Carolina."
