Excerpt from Military Antiquities Respecting a History of the English Army, From the Conquest to the Present Time, Vol. 1

In forming their armies the following regulations were observed: all such as were qualified to bear arms in one family, were led to the field by the head of that, family. Every ten families made a tything, which was commanded by the borsholder, in his military capacity stiled conductor. Ten tythings constituted an hundred; the soldiers of each hundred were led by the chief magistrate of the hundred, sometimes called the hundredary. Several hundreds, formed a trything, (a) which was commanded by the officer, called a trything-man; and the force of the country or shire, was commanded by the hertoch, dux, or duke, and he by the king, or ant officer called the kynings hold, i. e. the king's lieutenant or general, which office lasted only during the war. In times of peace, or when the king did not think it necessary to have a general, the militia remained under the command of the dukes of each county.

Every landholder was obliged to keep armour and weapons according to his rank and possessions; these he might neither fell, lend, nor pledge, nor even alienate from his heirs. In order to. instruct them in the use of arms, they had their stated times for performing their military exercise; and once in a. year, usually in. the spring, there was a general review of. arms, throughout each, county.

The clergy were exempted from personal military services, not only as being contrary to their profession, but likewise that they; might the better attend to their religious duties.
