In all counties east of the Blue Ridge the militia was required to be armed with muskets, but all to the westward of that mountain barrier, might be armed with rifl...es, and if any private made it to appear that he was unable to purchase a rifle, the County-Lieuten- ant, might buy it for him, paying for it out of militia fines in his hands. All regiment-al officers made reports within ten days after the general muster to the County-Lieutenant, who in turn within forty days after receiving these made his annual report to the Gov- ernor. December 15, 1788, it was enacted by the General Assem- bly that each militiaman in the counties on the Western Waters — those in West Virginia — should keep always ready a good musket or rifle, half a pound of good powder, and one pound of lead to be produced whenever called for by his commanding officer.^ 3.
