In every sham fight he was first and foremost. He was always loudest in proclaiming the "dooty of the milingtary to support the civil power."
'Well, no offence, Muster Mannering, but Perley and me's going over to my sister's at Wood End to-night, afore the milingtary come. The black-browed elderly woman spoke respectfully but firmly. 'What silly nonsense have you got into your heads? shouted the Squire.

What's come to you that you're all scuttling like a pack of rabbits? It's not your skins that'll pay for it it's mine! 'We're told Perley an' me as there'll be milingtary, said Mrs. Perley, unmoved.
