FEyHE undersigned, Inhabitants of the town of
H. Falmouth, and other towns in the vicinity,
all in said county, respectfully represent that
the road travelled from West Falmouth Post
Office to North Falmouth Post Office, in said
county, is circuitolrs. billy and very inconven-
lent and not sufficient for the necessities OF
public travel either that which is local or from
a greater distance; that a saving in distance
can be made; a better road with less hills be
constructed, involving a much smaller expense
for keeping it in repair, by a new way running
fl sm a point ON said road at from three to four
rods from the southwesterly side of a dwelling
house at Marrilps Corner, so called, now occu-
pied by Edward Libby, leading through lands
of Marcelus Leighton, G. r. Morrill,, John
Coughlin, Lorenzo leighton Wilbur Libby.
John Stewart, heirs OF John Frye, heirs of VIII
liam H. Allen, A. j.. Dearborn and Grenville
Hall to farm load in the northerly part Of
John Woodbury's field; thence by sad farm
road by said Woodbnrys buildings to the term
mus of the road leading from said Woodbury's
land to West Falmouth Post Office called
Post Office on the county road, and such way
would be of common convenience and neces-
sity.
We therefore pray your honorable board that
after due proceedings had, you will lay out and
establish a highway from said point described
above as near the house Of said Edward Libby
to the road called Shady Lane and thence by
said road to the Post Office at West Falmouth
and to the county road there along the short
est practicable route between said points as to
your honors shall seem best. And as in duty

themselves by passing the nights in the
open air with only wolf skins for cover
ings.
