Agreeable to the directions of the honourable Committee of Safety of this Colony, we have requested each inhabitant of this Town to sign to the within Declaration, and herewith return the names of those that have signed as within: also those that have not, and refuse to sign, who are as follows, viz:
James Caruth, a Scotchman, declines obliging himself to take up arms against his native country; but declares he will never take up arms against America, and is willing to bear his proportion of the publick taxes with his townsmen.
Moses Welch refuses to take up arms, and pleads conscience for an excuse.
Hezekiah Beedy, John Sanborn, John Clefford Fifield, Ensign Isaac Webster, John Webster, Robert Davise, Samuel Severence, Thomas Merrill, John Tucker, Ephraim IVinslow, John Eastman, John Gilman: These persons appear to be fearful that the signing this Declaration will, in some measure, be an infringement on their just rights and liberties; but they appear to be friendly to their country, and several of them have ventured their lives in the American cause, and the three last named persons are now in the Army.
