[SILAS WOOD'S OPINION ON A TITLE.]
[1826, July 26.]
GENTLEMEN-I have not been able to find the original grant to Jacob Brush for his land at Cold Spring, but suppose the land above the bank in Cannons deed was a part of it.
If the tract 52 rods by 15 was below the bank it must have comprehended the shore and gone to the channel and was conveyed to Cannon and will belong to those who hold his title.
I have not seen any deed but Brushes to Cannon but was informed by Judge Hewlett that he held a regular chain of conveyances from the original deed of Brush.
I presume that he will shew them to the Trustees if they wish to see them.
Under these circumstances I should think it imprudent
325

to make a grant to any one within the bounds of Cannons deed who cannot shew title under him to the premises .*

[* This is printed as a specimen of orders changing school districts, but all others are omitted. There are 37 separate orders on file made by school officers, changing the boundaries. of school districts, bearing dates between 1824 and 1872, when Babylon was set off as a separate town. These changes relate to 31 districts. They effect nearly every district. No. 4 is changed seven times ; No. 7, nine times ; No. 19, four times ;, No. 24, three times ; No. 26, four times ; No. 27, three times, and nearly all the others from one to two times each. Since the division of the Town, numerous orders changing bound- aries have been made. It is doubtful, however, whether the boundaries of many of the school districts could be ascer- tained by these imperfect and indefinite records. The bound- aries of all the districts would be re-established by new de- scriptions and carefully marked by monuments. The same observations apply to election and road districts. The Union School District, embracing the village of Huntington, was monumented at the suggestion of the writer, while a member of the Board of Education, about 1869. Records of the elec- tion of Trustees and other school officers in the several school districts, from about 1800, are in the Town Clerk's office, care- fully filed in the order of date, but are too voluminous to allow of their being printed .- C.
