Your Petitioners therefore Humbly Pray Your Excellency and Honours
to take their circumstances into your Wise and Compassionate
Consideration, And that a part of the Town of Groton, Beginning at
the line between Groton and Dunstable where inconvenient to Erect a
Township in the it crosses Lancaster [Nashua] River, and so up the
said River until it comes to a Place called and Known by the name
of Joseph Blood's Ford Way on said River, thence a West Point 'till
it comes to Townshend line &c. With such a part and so much of the
Town of Dunstable as this Honourable Court in their great Wisdom
shall think proper, with the Inhabitants Thereon, may be Erected
into a separate and distinct Township, that so they may attend the
Public Worship of God with more ease than at present they can, by
reason of the great distance they live from the Places thereof as
aforesaid.

And Your Petitioners, as in Duty bound, shall ever Pray &c.
