GREETING.

WHEREAS, complaint has been made to me A. B. Esquire, one of the justices of the peace in and for said county, dwelling in the said town of Chester, that (here insert the complaint) and the said E. F. having been duly notified to appear before me, and shew cause, if any he had, why the said timber should not be removed, and the said E. F. not appearing, (or not shewing sufficient cause against the same,) and it appearing to me the said justice, upon my own view of the same, that it is necessary for the public good, that the timber mentioned in the said complaint be removed, I do hereby order and require you forthwith to remove the said timber from the highway aforesaid, so that no part of the same may in any way impede or hinder those who may have occasion to travel upon the said highway.

And you are also ordered to sell so much of the said timber as may be necessary to pay the legal costs upon the said complaint taxed by the said justice at two dollars, and also the sum of three dollars, being three times the price of the labor of removing the same, as estimated by the said justice.

And you are to keep such part of the said timber as you may have occasion to sell for the purpose aforesaid four days, unless the said sum shall be sooner paid, and if the said E. F. do not pay the same sums within the space of four days, you are to proceed within forty-eight hours after the expiration of said

four days to sell at public auction, within the said town, so much of the said timber as may be necessary to pay said sums, having first posted up in two public places in the town twenty-four hours before the time of sale a notice of the place, day and hour, of sale, which must be sometime between ten of the clock in the forenoon and six in the afternoon, and a particular description of the said timber. And you

are, immediately after the sale, to deliver, or have ready to deliver, to the said E. F. a particular account of the said sumns, and the amount of the sale of each article.

Herein fail not. Given under my hand and seal this sixteenth day of January, in the year of our Lord eighteen hundred and twenty-six.

A. B. Justice of the Peace.
