      of a grist and saw mill, and were put up by Thomas Barber, John Moses,

      mills in good repair, to grind grain for the tolls allowed by law, to
      sell to the inhabitants boards at four and six pence per hundred, and not
      to transport oak to any other town. In consideration of which, the town
      allowed them the mill privileges, the right to take timber on the common
      lands, -- a lot of good timber lands, and twenty pounds payable in town
      rates." This was near the "present" (1845) site of Tuller's Mills. N.B.
