MIDDLESEX


At a meeting of the County Commissioners for the County of Middlesex, holden at Lowell, within and for said County, on the first Tuesday of September in the year of our Lord one Thousand nine hundred and eight. The inhabitants of Wayland in said County, by their petition to said Commis- sioners-among other matters-pray that a new road be laid out closely following the route of an old road running between the Framingham and Boston road near the house of James F. Thomas, northwesterly about one-half mile to the Natick and Concord road near the former residence of Joseph Bullard, as will fully appear, reference being had to the petition filed of record in the case.


The petition was presented to the County Commissioners at their meeting holden at Cambridge, within and for said County, on the first Tuesday of January, A. D. 1908, when and where said Commissioners caused notice to be given to all persons and corporations interested therein of the time and place when and where they would meet for the purpose of viewing the premises and hearing the parties, as by the notice on file and of record will more fully appear. And at an adjourned meeting said laying out was adjudged to be of common convenience and necessity and thence said petition has been continued to this time. And now the said Commis- sioners make return of their proceedings in the premises, as follows: said Commissioners having given notice as the law directs, met at the Selectmen's room in the Town Hall, in said Wayland, on the eighteenth of June, in the year Nine- teen hundred and eight, when and where the parties appeared,

to wit, the petitioners by W. A. Bullard and others and the respondents by Francis P. White and others. And the prem- ises having been examined, and all parties fully heard, said Commissioners proceeded to lay out a new highway as prayed for in said petition.


And the said Commissioners determine and order that the inhabitants of the said Town of Wayland shall, on or before the first day of July, which shall be in the year 1909, lay open, construct, and complete said highway, so that 16 feet in width thereof throughout the whole, exclusive of gutters on the sides, shall be safe and convenient for the passage of teams of every description with customary loads.
