Moore Troops for the War.--I am authorized
by the Secretary of War to raise a Legion for the War. I want an additional Regiment of Infantry,
two companies of Cavalry, and one of Artillery.
A bounty of One Hundred Dollars will be paid to each soldier upon his
enlistment. Cavalry are required to
furnish their own horse for which the government will pay them forty cents per
day, and their full value if killed in battle.
The best arms and equipments to be had in the Confederacy will be
furnished. Recruits will be received
singly or by companies. Turn out and
let's make short work with Abe. Address
me for the present at Kinston, N.C.
Z. B. Vance,
Col. Command'g 26th Reg. N.C.T.
