by_o the_o major_n the_o right_a honourable_a the_o lord_n major_n have_v take_v into_o his_o serious_a consideration_n the_o many_o dreadful_a affliction_n which_o this_o city_n have_v of_o late_a

therefore_o think_v it_o one_o duty_n of_o his_o office_n be_v entrust_v to_o take_v all_o possible_a care_n for_o the_o good_a government_n peace_n and_o welfare_n of_o this_o city_n first_o to_o
