To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I am not, however, of the opinion that the bounty ought to be withheld, but that it should be disposed of in procuring for the recruit those neces- saries which he naturally requires for his comfort and decent appearance on entering the service, as he can receive uo pay until after he has been mustered in some company of a regiment to which he may be attached. The 12th section of the act of the 16th March, 1802, directs that there shall be allowed and paid to each able-bodied citizen recruited ...to serve for the term of five years a bounty of twelve dollars ; but the payment of six dollars of said bounty shall be deferred until he shall be mustered, and have joined the corps in which lie is to serve. By disposing of the bounty as suggested above, and on its being so explained to the person who offers to enlist, if the bounty be an object with him, and he being disposed to take advantage of the government, will have a tendency to prevent his enlisting, and thereby the government will avoid the enlisting of such unworthy subjects, and being defrauded by them.
