Volunteers will receive troop pay, one franc a day... Get up, volunteers of the City of Burgundy! Volunteers of the entire department, get up!

The barracks and large public establishments being intended for the troops and the wounded who are announced, the young Mobile Guards will be accommodated at the inhabitant's home.
