This was the beginning of Part V:

The first borough election was held September 8, 1740, the franchise
extending to all freeholders and to all tenants who paid at least five
pounds yearly rent, and who had resided in the town one year. The
officials elected, and the number of votes for each, were as follows:
Chief Burgess, William SHIPLEY, 61; Second Burgess, Joseph WAY, 50; High
Constable, Charles EMPSON, 54; Assistant Burgesses, Thomas WEST, 96;
David FERRIS, 87; George HOWELL, 78; Robert HANNUM, 58; Joshua WAY, 50;
Joshua LITTLER, 45; Town CLERK, Gouldsmith Edward FOLWELL, 96.

The following is a complete list of the burgesses and clerks elected
under the original charter, those given for 1739 being named in the
charter for the offices designated:

Part VI is a continuation of the "clerks"
