    W.M. S. Thorington, The Code of Ordinances of the City Council of Montgomery 223, 225, 229 (1888)
    (1888)
    These ordinances restrict the use, possession, and transport of weapons and explosives: firing guns in public is banned except for self-defense or law enforcement, and discharging firearms or fireworks requires official permission; carrying concealed weapons is prohibited and punishable by fines or hard labor, though fear of attack may mitigate the offense; and transporting gunpowder must be done safely and out of public view.
