A summary of the invoice-list of 1825 may fittingly close the record of the quarter-century, and serve for comparison with that of the year 1800. There were 181 polls, and 18 other tax-payers ; 143 out of the 199 tax-payers were land- owners. For stock there were 74 horse kind that had been kept five winters, 15. four-year-olds, 6 three-year-olds, 9 two- year-olds. Of neat stock there were 70 yoke of cattle that had been wintered five years, 22 yoke of four-year-olds, 122 head of three-year-olds, 193 head of two-year-olds, and 324 cows. Of these last, Jonathan Greeley owned ten, and William Gay, Samuel S. Knowlton, and Moses Shepard had seven each. Out of a total of 12,050 acres of land owned by resident tax- payers, 23 I-4 acres were in orchard, 103 in arable land, 401 acres in mowing, 756 acres in pasture, the balance being unimproved land. Joseph Colby, with 510 acres, was the largest land-owner; Ebenezer and Amial Shepard had 359 acres in common, William Gay had 300, Eliphalet Gay 228, Amos Page 210, Greene French 200, and 43 other men owned above 100 each.

The buildings in town were valued at $10,132 ; the unimproved land, at $10,684. The buildings on the Colby place were valued at $500; those on the Greeley place, at $300.

$300, Elder Job Seamans $200, Widow Molly Adams $66, Jonathan Greeley $500, Capt. Thomas Currier $60. Joseph Colby, Greene French, Moses Trussell, Jonathan Greeley, and Benjamin E. Woodman had carriages of taxable value. The three stores in town, kept by Jonathan Herrick, Jr., Samuel Greenwood, and Benjamin E. Woodman, carried stocks returned at $350, $400, and $400 respectively.
It has been thought best to present a tabular list of town officials in connection with each historical period, in order to avoid repetitions in the biographical sketches and yet preserve to their descendants the pleasant memory of faithful service.
