Gray ward's Lich 120 water 3: 2.1

RESIDENCE OF THE REV. MOSES BEAN, 1818.

[blocks in formation]

The original document, of which the above, with the signatures, is a copy, was found among the papers of Nathaniel Emerson, Esq., who in 1776, was one of the selectmen. It bears no indications of ever having been returned to the Committee of Safety, and no copy can be found in the records of the State department.

No names are set down as having refused to sign, and it probably has every name of the required age, then in town. A few months before, the whole number of men over sixteen was one hundred and thirty-nine, and twenty-seven were in the army, so that there would not have been more than ninety-nine over twenty-one years bf age.

Names of Soldiers who served at various times during the War of Independence, from Candia, some of which were found on the Town Record, and others taken from the Army Rolls :
