WAIST-BELT PLATE, GRAY GUARDS, C. 1850

_USNM 60489-M (S-K 245). Figure 250._

[Illustration: FIGURE 250]

The unit for which this plate was made cannot be precisely identified.

It is reasonable to assume that there were several Militia

organizations called "Gray Guards." The central "G" probably indicates

"Company G." The whole is cast brass.
