In the old time, whenever individuals made suitable application to the General Court, a tract of land for a township was granted to them ; and they became organized at once into three corporations, namely, the township, or municipal body ; the pro- prietors ; and the parish. At first, these bodies were all identical ; but at length they became in general separate ; though cases still exist of the continued identity of two of these bodies, and it may possibly be of all. From the body of propriet...ors each individual received his share, subject always to the sovereign rights of the Commonwealth. Those old proprietors, the men of the Colony of Massachusetts, were actuated by peculiar inducements. They did not come hither, as military invaders in pursuit of conquests, like the Spaniards. Nor were they mercantile or agricultural speculators, like many of the settlers in other parts of the country. Their object was a purely intellectual one, a sentiment, an idea, a principle. They were enthusiasts, bigoted if you please, but still highmindedones, engaged in a great and generous political experi- ment.
