gal title of part of the said trad was, as they were
informed, in Redford Afhfield, who was not, nor
had not been, to their knowledge, for several years
past, within the United States of America ; and
that a considerable part of the said trad was held
from them by persons having no legal title to the
fame, or having a title to small shares, possessed
large trads ; and that they had been put to consi
derable expence by endeavouring at law to gain
possession of the said lands so held from them, with
out effect, and that they were still desirous of pro
ceeding for that purpose, and to make partition of
the lands to the several owners thereof, in propor
tion to their refpedive rights; but they were ad
vised it could not be legally done without the in
terposition of the Legislature, as one of the owners
was not to be come at; and praying that a law
might be passed for making partition of the said
land among the several owners thereof, in propor
tion to their refpedive shares.
This is to give notice, that a bill will be pre
sented at the next fitting of the Legislature, for
making partition of the said land, agreeably to
