| Summary | "Regulations for the establishment and government of the Royal Military Asylum" by an unnamed author is a formal publication likely produced in the early 19th century. This book outlines the framework for the administration and operational guidelines of the Royal Military Asylum, which served as a home for the children of soldiers. The content addresses the protocols for managing the institution, emphasizing the welfare of the children and the responsibilities of the staff involved. The book details various aspects of the asylum's governance, including the appointment of officers, admission criteria for children, and the responsibilities of staff members such as the Commandant, Treasurer, and Chaplain. It establishes a structured hierarchy and delineates explicit rules and regulations for daily operations, ensuring that children, particularly orphans and those with deceased or absent soldier parents, are educated and cared for. Additionally, it includes a comprehensive dietary plan for the inhabitants, reflecting a desire for proper sustenance. Overall, it serves as a historical account of the military's commitment to the welfare of the families affected by service life in the early 19th century.
