Hancock and Washington, as the lines of the two Counties now are. The said tenth Division will be divided into two Brigades, as follows, viz. the Regiments at present commanded by Colonels Parker & Brewer will form the first Brigade, and the Regiments at present commanded by Colonels Stillman & Patten will form the second Brigade of the said Division.

By order of the Commander in Chief Wm. Donnison, Adj. Genl.

Att. H: Sewall, D. A. Genl. ________________________________________________________

General Orders, Head-quarters, Boston, June 20.

                                                                          1795.

Since the Counties of Hancock and Washington have been constitued a Division of the Militia in this Commonwealth, the eighth Division comprizes only the County of Lincoln, the encreasing population of which renders it highly necessary to multiply the number of Regiments in said County to seven or eight, and that they be formed into two Brigades.
