Summary
[AI GENERATED] The Code of Ordinances of the City Council of Montgomery, specifically section 547, as codified by W.M.S. Thorington in 1888, pertains to firearms regulations within the city limits. During this period, municipal ordinances often supplemented state laws, and cities like Montgomery were granted authority to regulate certain aspects of gun ownership and use. Section 547 likely addresses specific provisions related to carrying or possessing firearms within the city, possibly including requirements for licenses, permits, or other restrictions on firearm possession. The historical context suggests that urban areas were increasingly concerned with public safety and crime prevention, leading to the implementation of stricter regulations on firearms.
