For Avo yours after Mr. Torner's aocond visit lo tho plantation the settlers were not favored with preaching rscept ftom Rev. Mr. Brown, of Westbrook, and Ruv. Mr. Nash, of Gray, each of whom spent a frw sabbaths with them, But the proprietors having stipulated es a condition le the original grant of Ibe township that they would sattle a learned l'rotestant minister in the town within n spentfled time felt onslous to fuifil that obligation ; therefore at their meoling on the 9th nf March, 1770, they voted that they would pay one-half of Ibe chinrge of supporting a minister for three years, und one-thitil of the charge for two years more ; and on tho 7th of November, 1781, they instructed tholr olotk lo write to the settiera relative to potiling a minister and to apprise them of the proprietors' wish Ibat they wonid choose a committee and fully empower it to agree and settle with tho proprietors about It. In tho sumntuer of 1784, Rev.

Those who were ailenated from him jolwed with a number of the people of Buckfield and were invar- porated as a Baptist society, In less than two years twenty more joined this soulety, and the adherents of Mr. Strickland were left few in number.
