Laws, IV. 88. which name was changed to Arlington, April 20, 1867. Ibid., XII. 244. The inhabitants of the territory left on the south side of Charles River petitioned to be made a separate precinct, as early as 1748, and renewed their petition, from time to time, until April 2, 1779, when they were authorized to bring in a bill to incorporate them as an ecclesiastical parish, excepting Samuel Sparhawk, John Gardner, Joanna Gardner, and Moses Griggs, and their estates. Mass. Prov. Rec., XXXIX. 213. This was styled the Third Parish, or Little Cambridge. The whole territory south of Charles River was incorporated, under the name of Brighton, Feb. 24, 1837. Mass.

It is also said: We have supported the gospel among us some part of the year for fourteen years, during which time we set apart a house for divine worship that had been a dwelling-house: upon finding it too small for the congregation we erected a convenient house for the worship of God, . . . . and soon after we had winter-preaching in this house we concluded to have summer-preaching in it also: and we are now in the 5 ye
