Whereas, His Majesty has been graciously pleased by his royal determi- nation to settle the eastern boundaries of this Colony, whereby several large tracts of land and a great number of inhabitants are taken under Jurisdiction of this Government, and it being absolutely necessary for the well governing of the said people that the said tracts of land, with the, inhabitants thereon, be set off and incorporated into Townships, and the same being conveniently situated for the making of five Townships;


Be it, therefore, enacted by the General Assembly, and by the authority of the same it is enacted, that the aforesaid tracts of land, with the inhabit- ants thereon, be set off and incorporated into five Towns in the following manner, viz .:


All that part which heretofore has been called Bristol, with the inhabit- ants thereon, be set off and incorporated into a Township by the name of Bristol; and that part which was heretofore (known) as part of Tiverton, with a part of Dartmouth and Freetown, adjoining thereto, be incorporated into a Township by the name of Tiverton; and that part which has hereto- fore been a part of Little Compton and a part of Dartmouth thereto adjoin- ing be incorporated into a Township by the name of Little Compton; and that the line which formerly divided Tiverton from Little Compton be extend- ed eastly to the Colony line, and the whole to be the dividing lines between said Towns; and that part which has hitherto been a part of Swansey and Barrington, with a small part of Rehoboth thereto adjoining, with the in- habitants thereon, be incorporated into a Township by the name of Warren; and that part which has been commonly called and known by the name of the Gore of Land, with the inhabitants thereon, be incorporated into a Township by the name of Cumberland; and that the inhabitants of each respective Town, for the time being, shall have and enjoy equal liberties and privileges with the other Towns of this Colony, agreeably to our Charter.


And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid that a special Jus- tice of the Peace be chosen and appointed in each of the above-mentioned Towns to keep His Majesty's peace and to call the inhabitants of the respec- tive Towns together by a warrant, to meet on the second Tuesday in February next, to choose such Town Officers as are directed by the laws of this Colony and also deputies to represent said Towns at the adjournment of this Assem- bly.


And that the said Justices be commissionated by His Honor the Gov- ernor, and to continue until the next session of this Assembly; and that the General Treasurer furnish each of the above-mentioned Towns with a Col- ony law book; and that the Secretary send to each of the said Towns a copy of the late act of Assembly, directing the manner of making freemen and regulating the method of voting; and that said law books and copies of said act be delivered to the above-mentioned Justices as soon as conveniently" may be.
