"Bands of brigands infest various parts of this department, and carry there devastation and desolation. They take away by force those whom they meet, and oblige them to become thus instruments of disorder and civil war... The EMPEROR has entrusted you with the defense of your homes: he asks you for all military service to help the troops of the line to pacify your own country. Arm yourselves to prevent the common enemy from coming to spread death in the city... Show yourselves then, Inhabitants of the Sarthe; and the happy security which you enjoyed before, will be promptly restored... " - Empire vignette.
