Hatch's house, we raised a heape of stones & from the said rock South east to the Cartway between Samuel & Seth Arnold's, where we raised a heap of stones and from thence to Green's Harbor fresh the path to be the bound, and on the eastward side of said fresh, just above where the said way goes through it we raised a heap of stones and from thence on a straight line to a tree of White Oak with the top broken off called poles, which said tree stands by the Cartway just where an old footpath turned out of it towards Careswell and between the said ways and from thence on a straight line to the South west side of Edward Bumpus' land so called, when he formerly lived at Duck Hill, taking in the said lands of the said Edward Bumpus to the township of Marshfield, and these bounds aforesaid to be the bounds betwixt the said townships of Duxboro and Marshfield forevermore.
