Of the above described territory and is one of the most
nonrsmng villages in this part of the country having sew
efa s and Factories now in operation therein and an
abundance OF unoccupied power on said ers river
which passes through nearly the ofsa territory and
village, all which will unquestionaby, soon be taken nm
and occupied by means of the facilities afforded by the Yer
mont and Massachusetts Railroad which passes through
e whoe length OF said territory upon the banks of said

Is ionr ana one half miles from Royalston Centre eight
miles from Winchendon, seven miles from Athol 6 10
miles from Phillipston and l-2 miles from Templeton-
mat the roads from said village Royalston Centre
