We the undersigned, Levi Lincoln, James Bridge, George Bliss, Benjamin J Porter, Lothrop Lewis, and Silas Holman, appointed Commissioners under and by virtue of the law of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, entitled an act relating to the separation of the District of Maine from Massachusetts proper, and forming the same into a separate and independent state. Having endeavored faithfully and assiduously by at different times from the first meeting of said Commissioners, on the thirtieth day of October in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and twenty unto the sixth day of March last to agree upon the description and amount of all such debts, annuities, Indian subsidies or claims which remain due or unsatisfied and upon the description, amount and assignment of a just portion of the productive property held by said Commonwealth as an equivalent and indemnification therefor. And having made a division of the Military Stores and Ordnance belonging to said Commonwealth on the fifth day of March last. Being unable to agree upon and complete an assignment and division of the residue of said Personal property, we adjourned on said sixth day of March last to meet at Portland on the sixteenth day of May instant at which time and place we resumed the subject and made further examinations, and in the spirit and with a view to a compromise mutually made further concessions. Notwithstanding the difficulty of ascertaining the value and amount of said Personal property and the extent of the liabilities of said Commonwealth we have unanimously agreed upon a settlement, assignment, and division thereof, and have assigned the sum of thirty seven thousand, four hundred & seventy one dollars and three Cents, estimated by us as a just portion of the productive property to be held by the said Commonwealth, as an equivalent and indemnification to said Commonwealth for all debts, annuities, and Indian subsidies or claims due from said Commonwealth, which now remain due, or unsatisfied; except the subsidy or annuity which may be due to the Penobscot tribe of Indians after
