AN ACT INCORPORATING THE TOWN OF NORTH PROVIDENCE.
In. General Assembly at Newport, second Monday in June, 1765.
An Act Dividing the Town of Providence.
Whereas, a large number of the inhabitants of the northern part of the town of Providence preferred a petition and represented unto this Assembly that they are within the limits of said township upwards of four hundred free- men ; and those that dwell in the most compact part are altogether merchants and tradesmen ; and that for the greater part of the petitioners dwell in the more remote part of said township, and are near all farmers, whose interest and business oftentimes differ from the merchants ; that town meetings have often been called and held in the compact part upon matters and things which did not and do not concern the farmers in the northern and more remote parts of said town ; that they, the petitioners, nevertheless, have been and still are obliged to leave farming business and to attend upon said meetings to pre- vent things being voted to their disadvantage, which has occasioned much loss of time, contention and expense, which ought to be borne by the merchants and tradesmen, all which, being very inconvenient, they prayed to be set off, crect- . ed and made into a township. On consideration whereof
Be it enacted by this General Assembly, and by the authority thereof it is enacted, that the said town of Providence be. and the same is hereby, divided into two distinct and separate towns; and that the bounds of the northern part, hereby set off, begin at the new bridge, near to the hill called Solitary Hill; thence bounding on Wanasquatucket river until it comes to .the north- west corner of the town's land at the east end of a place called Forestack meadow ; thence easterly on a straight line to the middle of the Mill bridge; thence on a due east line until it comes to the Soaconck river, so called ; thence northerly bounding on said Seaconck river until it comes to the Smithfield line ; thence bounding by Smithfield line until it comes to Johnston line, and thence bounding westerly by said Johnston line until it comes to the afore- said Solitary Hill ; that all the lands included within the limits aforesaid shall be and hereby are erected and made into a township, to be distinguished, called and known by the namo of North Providence; that the inhabitants thereof shall choose two deputies to represent them in the General Assembly, and that they shall have, hold and enjoy all and singular the liberties, privileges and immunities which the other towns of this Colony enjoy and are entitled to.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforcsaid that all debts due and money belonging to the town of Providence, before the division thereof, by this act made, shall be divided according to the last tax ; and all debts due from the said towns before the said division shall be settled and made iu like manner.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid that all and every of the Justices of the Peace and Military Officers that were chosen and appointed for the town of Providence, who live in that part thereof that is now made North Providence, be, and they are hereby, continued in their respective of- fices, with as full power and ample authority, in every particular, as they had
(Vit. Rec., Vol. 2.) 23
iv
ACT OF INCORPORATION OF NORTH PROVIDENCE.
in consequence of their being chosen into and commissionated for the offices by them respectively sustained ; and John; Olney, Esq., is hereby authorized and fully empowered to issue a warrant and call the freemen of the said town of North Providence to meet togethe at the house of Capt. Thomas Olney, with- in the same, on or before the 8th day of July, in order to choose and appoint all officers necessary for managing and conducting the prudential affairs of said town agreeably to the laws of this Colony.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid that all town meet- ings in said town shall be holden at the dwelling house of the aforesaid Thomas Olney, it being agreed upon by the said petitioners as near the centre and most convenient; and that the said town shall send one grand juror and one petit juror unto all and every the Superior Courts of Judicature, Court of Assize and General Jail Delivery, and also unto all and every the Inferior Court of Common Pleas and General Sessions of the Peace that shall hereafter be holden within and for the County of Providence.
. And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid that the town of Pro- vidence shall forever have and enjoy the full, constant and free use, privilege and improvement of the burying hill or ground that is now to be taken off in the town of North Providence, according as it now is stated and laid out by the town of Providence for burying their dead, making monuments for the same, and also for mustering their train bands and exercising their soldiers thereon, as usual heretofore, to all intents and purposes; anything to the contrary in this act or any part thereof, notwithstanding.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid that for the future the town of Providence shall send one grand and one petit juror to each of the Superior Courts of Judicature, Court of Assize and General Jail Delivery, and one grand and one petit juror to each Inferior Court of Common Pleas and Gen- eral Sessions of the Peace that shall be holden in and for the County of Provi- dence.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid that the poor be divided between the said two towns in proportion tu the taxes and debts.
It is voted and resolved that Henry Harris, Esq., and Col. William Brown be, and they are hereby, appointed a Committee to run the line between the towns of Providence and North Providence; that they erect such monuments in the line as they shall think necessary, and that they make report to this As- sembly as soon as may be.
God save the King.
