• sequence_number: 6
• year: 1804
• place_issued: Richmond
• issuing_press: Uncertain
• author: Virginia. Adjutant General's Office.
• notes: A table of the reorganized state militia, listing the divisions and regiments with the names of their commanding officers, reflecting the changes mandated by the act mentioned in the title (Chap. I of the Acts of the December 1803 Assembly); signed repeatedly throughout the text by Samuel Coleman, then Deputy Adjutant General.
  This title lacks imprint; while such circulars were usually printed by the public printer, credit for producing this item is unclear; Meriwether Jones resigned that office in March 1804 and was replaced by Samuel Pleasants; but prior to that change, Jones regularly subcontracted the public work to other printers as he reduced the scale and output of his press in advance of his resignation; so as this title was issued in February or March of 1804, several Richmond printers could have produced the item, hence the indeterminacy here.
