Seems to be a reference to a British law about colonial America (see Quartering Act, the page that links here), but I don't know enough about that period to say what, if anything, should go in this article. Haeleth22:10, 18 October 2005 (UTC)Reply
I think this article might just be merged into the Quartering Act article since that covers the information much better. There is a very minimal bit of info only found here though so I have not merged the articles. I think more input might help to show whether that is appropriate. I have added a reference to a source which clarifies why it is called the mutiny act. I have also tied it to the Quartering Act article. Any thoughts? Suggestions?
