This memorable event is thus recorded in the charter : " That on the 12th day of June, in the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred and nine, all the inhabitants of the township of New Rochcllc, who were members of the said French church, excepting two. unanimously agreed and consented to conform themselves, in the religious worship of their said Church, to the Liturgy and rites of the Church of England as established by law ; and by a solcir.n act or agreement did submit to, and put themselves under the protection of the same."
