such locality may be constituted a town district under the
said Act; and that no such locality shall exceed two square
miles in area, and no one point in such area shall be distant
more than four miles from any other point therein, except
in the case of military townships; and that in every such
locality not less than two-thirds of the number of the resi-
dent householders shall concur in any such petition, and
each signature to such petition shall be verified by the
attestation of some respectable witness; and that such

on the receipt of any such petition, the Governor may, by
Proclamation, declare that the provisions of the said Act
shall come into force within such locality, and that the
same shall be a town district under the said Act; and,
further, that such Proclamation shall accurately define the
boundaries of the district in accordance with the description
contained in the petition, and shall declare the name by
which such district shall thereafter be known:

described therein, praying that such locality may be consti-
tuted a town district under the said Act:

tioned and set forth in the said petition so presented as
aforesaid), and that the same shall be a town district under
the said Act; and, in further pursuance and exercise of the
said power and authority, I do hereby declare that the
