Samuel C. Carter having received the required number of votes was declared to be elected.
.
Attest.
S. C. CARTER, Town Clerk.
Town Meeting, December 7, 1840.
Voted. That the Selectmen be authorized to convey to the Trustees of Amherst College, by quit claim deed so much of the common in front of the College lot, as is not wanted for the purposes of a highway, upon the terms and con- ditions specified in this petition of the prudential Committee of said trustees.
Attest. S. C. CARTER, T. Clerk.
Copy of the petition of the prudential committee of Amherst College, pre- sented and acted upon at a legal meeting of the inhabitants of the town of Amherst held on the seventh of Dec. 1840.
The undersigned in behalf of the College would respectfully present to the town of Amherst a petition for license to use the Hill in front of the College for College purposes.
The Hill in its present condition is well known to be deformed and inconven- ient. Being a conspicuous object it has been supposed by strangers to furnish evidence of a want of taste and enterprise on the part of the college and of the town and is thus a standing reproach to both. The students who pass over it. to and from their meals six times a day, the Faculty, the Trustees in their annual visits, the benefactors and friends of the Institution and the inhabitants of the place, all unite in viewing it with a common feeling of dissatisfation. The parents of the young men who join the Institution and the young men themselves in their first impressions are disgusted with its deformed appearance and thus in some degree at the outset are disgusted with the College and the town. They regard it as the index of the character of each.
What is thus now useless and worse than useless and a deformity and a reproach to the College and the Town, may be made usefull and ornamental and creditable to both. It is needed by the College as the best place for an observatory to be erected for Astronomical and philosophical purposes. In the want of such a build- ing some of the apparatus now in possession can not be used. Instead of being inconvenient and awkward, it will if put into shape be easy of access. convenient and gracefull. By being smothed in all part of it, and planted with trees and protected by a fence and covered with green-sward and fitted up with walks it may be made a pleasant spot attractive to transient travellers, to visitors and to students about to enter College. It cannot reasonably be expected by anyone that the Col- lege, in its poverty, will employ the expense and the labor necessary for accomplish- ing these desirable improvements, unless it can be secured in the peaceable posses- sion of the Hill when thus improved. This security the town we think will cheer- fully grant on condition that only so much of the eastern side of the common as is not needed for a highway shall be occupied by the college and that the part thus relinquished by the town, shall be used only for College purposes. Your petitioners would therefore respectfully request that the Inhabitants of the town of Amherst at their present meeting would authorize the Selectmen to relinquish to the Trus- tees of Amherst College, their rights in the common in front of the College lot.
