Excerpt from Pioneers of the Eastern Townships: A Work Containing Official and Reliable Information Respecting the Formation of Settlements, With Incidents in Their Early History, and Details of Adventures, Perils and Deliverances The number of Associates required for a township ten miles square, was forty, all of whom, with the Agent, were to take the oath of allegiance before they were accepted, and their names entered in the Letters Patent each Associate being obliged to make actual settlement. The Agent was to bear all the expenses incurred in the survey of the township; to open a road through, and erect, or cause to be erected, mills within the town ship; which conditions were to be fulfilled within a given term of time before the granting of the Letters Patent. Five-sevenths of the township were to be given to the Agent and Associates; of the other two-sevenths, one half was for the disposition of the Crown, the other half for Protestant Clergy; which lands were known as Crown and Clergy reserves.
