Perceived in your last Gazette 3 Warrant for
I calling a Meeting of the Proprietors of Orford,
from one of his Mzjzity’s Justices of the Peace,
for the Resfons there Mfigned for applying to a Ma
gistrate was because the Proprieter’s Clerk, by whom
the: Praprietors have dire@ted their Meetings to be
called had been applied te and declined. 1 was
yaach f{urprifzd te fee that such a Representation
fhoald be imposed om s Magistrate, tabs made
publick in the manner it has been. Asl am the
Proprietor’s Clerk there aliuded te, if it’s allowed
that I had refuled er negle@ed to comply with the
Request, [ might lay under fame Refleftions, which
if I am silent will be a'lowed—Therefore in Juftics
to myfelf, 4 beg you will inform the Public, as well
a 1 the Proprietors es Offord that I never declined
¢calling that Meeting, according to the Tennor of the
Request, notwithtanding the Confidence of any ene
20 sflert it—e The Stats of the Application mads to
me is thas, On Menday Evening the 10th inst. I
was attending & Proprietor’s Meeting of Orferd,
~when the Request was effered to me by Capt, Wil
liam Simpfen. signed by himfelf and cne ather, I
told him [ wou'd comply with it ; There was at this
Time a Prepcietor’s Meeting fubfilting under a
short Adjsurnment in which most of the Artices in
serted in that Request, were to beatted upon. The
Reco!le@lion es which, after I had parted with Capt.
Simpson, cecafioned a Doubt in my Mind, whether
5t was legal te call 3 Mesting while there was ano
ther fubfiting, in which much Business was io bs
tranfalted—The next Morning Mr. Simpson called
®n me for the Warrant ; I teld him eof my Doubt,
and as he did not request the Meeting to be held
till the 28th of September, I chafe fi:ft to take pre
per Advice; and if legal I was very willing, and
would (eafonsb'y adve 't (e sWarning for the Meet
ing. Mr. Simpfem nfifted that I fhouid eicher de
liver him & Notification, or refu’e his Requift, ia
Auafwer te which I teld him that if there was no
Doubt in my Mind I sppreherded that it weuld be
improper for me te deiiver him the Notification,
which properly belenged to me (in my Capecity)
te pubiifh, and as to denyiog his Request I weuld
not, for [ purpefed to call the Meeting, 2fter I had
teken Advice, if it was in my Power : Upon which
Mr. Simpflen used some warm ard indecent Expres
sions, and left me, =~ This the Worid may de
pend dpon as a true State, however etharwife infi
puited, publickly er privately. Notwithftandieg [
hope the Affsirs of the Tewnthip will fiil remain
in that remarkab'e peaceful snd harmonicus Stats
they have been in, ever since the Graat of the Town-
Jhyp and if any Person or Persons have been or are
now deflzning to the contrary, I with their Endea
vours may prove ineffeftunl, and that fer the future
a greeter Part of their Time may bs empleyed, and
Money expended, 10 2 much betier Purpefe.
