ITY WARD INES.
WARD 1 .- Includes the villages of Blackinton and Greylock east to the point where the old Williamstown road crosses the Hoosac river near the Fitchburg railroad crossing in Braytonville. The line then runs north to Clarksburg town boundary. From the railroad crossing the line follows the Hoosac river eastward past the fair grounds to Brown street, passing southward along that street and along the east boundary of the cemetery, thence due south to the Adams line.
WARD 2 .- The western boundary of Ward 2 begins at Clarksburg and runs south to the junction of the old Williamstown highway and the Hoosac river, with the river from that point to Brooklyn street for its southern boundary. Thence the line runs northerly to Lib- erty, easterly on Liberty to Phillips street and northerly along Phil- lips street across the hospital grounds due north to the Clarksburg line.
