 GENERAL ORDER 
 
 A RELAXATION of Discipline and of Vigilance being fiequentljr •uffered to prevail among Troops, 
 while on a March, The Commander of the Forces finds it necessary to caution OfTicers against allowr 
 iiig a mistaken indulgence to operate tt»',thc prejudice of the service. Few situations require more unre»^ 
 n'itting attention in the Officers, than the conducting Troops on route with regDlarity and order. His 
 Excellency directs that the foH- ving Instructions be in future strictly observcu. 
 
 The Baggage or Stores in charge of a Detachment or Cc ', are to be prepared befoi the hour appointed 
 for the march or embarkation, and n<i party on the pretence of escorting Baggage, is tu remain behind. 
 
 When movements are made by Water, attention is to be paid in the distribution of the Baggage and the 
 Crews in the Batteaux, so as to iiisUre the Boats moving in compact order, and to avoid all unnecessary 
 delay. 
 
 As far as practicable, t'le men are to embark in the same sections and order in which they are accustomed 
 to parade ; an Oflicer, or {iergeant (in case there are not Officers sufficient^ li to be placed in charge of 
 each Boat. The Boats of each Company are to keep together, and the Companies to preserve their relative 
 position in Battalion ; — A Boat with an Oflicer is to be appointed to lead, and form an advanced Guard, a 
 second B«at is, in like manner, to constitute the rear Guard, and Will prevent any from making the shore 
 or remaining behind. 
 
 .Officers are always to accompany their respective companies ot* division!), and whenever they arrive dt a 
 place of halt, they are not to quit them until their pa 1y is mustered, and every necessary interior arrangement 
 made for the accommodation of the men, the security of their arms and stores, and for the regularity of their 
 messing ; nor are they at any time to absent themselves beyond reach of being able tc superintend the con- 
 duct of their men. The soldiers are not to be permitted to straggle, on any pretence. If fuel or provi« 
 sions are to be sent for, an officer or non-commissioned officer is to accompany the fatigue party ; and when 
 Soldiers are qiiartered in the; houses or barns of the inhabitants, they are to conducl themselves lu an orderly, 
 peaceable manner, and are not to prcsnme to take any wood for fuel, or provisions, or in any way to injure 
 ur destroy the propcrtjr of the inhabitants s .any .soldier so mis)l]|phaTine, it to. be punished fur the same, and 
 to make due compensation to the proprietor. 
 
 The boats, bagghje, or 'stores, are always to be arranged in the most secure manner possible for the 
 night, and a Captain or Subaltern's guard, according to the strength of the detachment, is to be mounted at 
 sunset, (the smallest escorts are to furnish at least one sentry) and the utmost vigilance, ant' every precau- 
 tion, to be observed that is required for an out-picquet in face of the enemy. The Officers in command 
 are required to use every exertion to ensure regularity and vigilance,, and are held particularly responsible 
 that their instructions are strictly adhered, to. i i 
 
 An allowance of Spirits will be issued to Troops on a march, or in batteaux, whenevei- it can be procur- 
 ed ; but as this issue is to be considered as an indulgence, and forming no part of the soldier's ration, it ii 
 to be withheld in all instances of irregular conduct, from the individuals misbehaving; and when that mis*, 
 conduct is not confined to a very few, this indulgence is to be withheld from the whole detachment or corps, 
 until regularity and order is generally evinced. . ,,
