I regret to inform you that the Municipal stock of ammunition has fallen so low that at the moment not only is it insufficient for the immediate requirements of volunteers but, were any double to arise (of which fortunately there is no fear at present) calling for services of the volunteers, the Council could not arm the Corps.
