What thorough" Signifies.

The word "burgh" in Saxon stood
for "castle;" hence towns anciently
erected in the vicinity Of castles for
their protection had this name con-
ferrel upon them and the soldiers who
garrisoned these were called burghers.
so the inhabitants Of these towns re-
ceived the sane name. These also
being formed into community. the
constitution formed for their regular
government was denominated the Dor
