The captains and subalterns of the first regiment will therefore assemble at Smith's tavern at the cross roads in Hallowell, on Monday the twenty-fifth day of May next, at two o'clock in the afternoon, then and there to elect a lieutenant-colonel-commandant in the room of lieutenant-colonel commandant Fairbanks, and to fill such other vacancies of field officers as may exist on the day of election. -- It is presumed that sufficient precaution will now be taken to secure to every elector that notice which the law prescribes; and the adjutant will be responsible for any deficiency. -- Colo. Fairbanks is requested again to preside and make return of the election.
