My thought was for a company of men to start off immediately, to be followed by more later as they could be marshalled. Urgency. Thus, Haleth, I suppose, allows Eodwine, Garstan, Thornden and Deren, with a few others, start off right away, and takes care of marshalling more to follow after, at a probably slower pace. This means that perhaps the foremost company is at most a dozen, at least a half dozen, followed by perhaps 20, 40, or 60 more depending upon what is considered most appropriate. But that's just my thought.
