   manding such Battalion or independent Company
   will offer the same as rifle prizes, to be fired for
   under such regulations and conditions as he may
   from time to time fix; but no prizes shall be offered
   for competition unless the minimum sum of two
   pounds sterling shall have been received and is
   available for such purpose.

3. The Officer Commanding the Battalion or in-
   dependent Company will send to the Acting Under-
