It seems after all that Judge Hunt
has not only not resigned his Office, but
that he will not unless and until con-
gress provides by special enactment that
he may retire upon his salary. So there
is no vacancy on the bench for the pres
ident to fill, and none in tie senate for
Governor Proctor to supply. But Sena-
tor Edmands has had his eulogiums and
Governor Proctor his opportunities just
the same. So if the scheme ever should
work, SO much time and labor will have
been gained.

HISTORY OF DERBY.

1t is not probable that any of the
grantees of the township of Derby had
visited the town previous to the grant,
though Col. Human. or some of his
troops may have passed through this
section during the French aud Indian
war. or during the first years of the
Revolution. Whether they had any
definite knowledge of the country in this
section or not. they were very fortunate
in the location of this grant, and could
not have selected another as good a
township between the Green Mountain
range and the Connecticut river.
The, town extended along the Canada
line seven and one-half miles, from
Memphremagog lake eastward to what
afterwards became known as Holland.
Tbo east line runs nearly north and
south and is 5 miles and % rods in
length; the south line is miles and
200 rods in length the western bound
airy follows the lake and is very irregu-
lar, the distance along the shore of the
lake being z l-2 miles. The town con-
tains 23,04O acres of land. The soil
was naturally very fertile, and, though
much of it has been cropped for more
fifty years, the crops are still good. The
surface of the town is unusually level for
this region of country, and no mountain
and few rough and rocky hills are found
in the whole town. Almost the entire
town, with the exception of small por-
ton covered by ponds, is capable of
being cultivated. From 1879 until
about 1890, the original proprietors of
the town held occasional meetings in
Connecticut for the purpose of maintain
ing their organization, raising funds to
pay taxes, and to procure the survey and
settlement of the town. In 1889 petit
ton was presented to Nath. Brush of
Bennington, VT, for meeting of the
proprietors of the town of Derby, to be
held at Westminster, Vt, to provide
means for paying expenses, and to see if
the proprietors would give the few set
tiers who had just gone into town, the
lots on which they had pitched. At this
meeting it was voted that Samuel Drake
ly be employed to allot the town, for
which he was to receive 70 pounds and
IL shillings. A tax was assessed to pay
the expense. The drawing of the lots
was to be made Jan. l, 1871, but it was
voted that any settler, who made his
| pitch in town previous to that time,
should have the lot on which he settled.
By the terms of the charter of the
town, it became necessary that each
grantee, either himself or by his repre-
sentative, should plant and cultivate at
least five acres of land, and build house
not less than Is feet square on the
ground, within five years after the lines
and limits of the town were established,
or his land should be forfeited. 1t case
of forfeiture the land reverted to the
State to be re-granted to other parties.
The time was afterwards extended, and
we do not learn that any body lost title
on account of delay in taking up his lot
The difficulties in the way of settling
the remote districts were such that the
legislature was very lenient toward tht
proprietors of early chartered towns.
