VERMONT, CANADIAN
STATE HINTED IN OLD
1 MANUSCRIPT
MONTPELIER, Vt.— f/P)—Ver
mont “shopped around” before
joining the union and at one time
seriously considered becoming
part of Canada.
The present chief executive.
Governor Mortimer R. Proctor,
got details of the dickering from
a manuscript report purchased in
Boston recently.
The report, dated Jan. 12, 1782,
was written by a Vermont legisla
ture committeeman, William Page,
* from a New Hampshire jail to
which he had been committed af
ter fighting for Vermont’s land
rights.
Page told of the legislative com
mittee’s discussions with Congress
about the possibility of Vermont’s
entering the union.
Meeting Fails
Nothing came of the confab,
however, as both New Hampshire
' and New York were reputed to be
opposed to Vermont’s admission
unless she conceded land on both
the east and west boundaries.
When the Vermont legislature
recieved the report of its commit
tee, it named another group to
meet with the New Hampshire
legislature for discussion of the
common boundary.
Dec. 21, 1781, Page said he was
I commissioned by Lt. Gov. Elisha
Payne to report at once to Col. Ira
Allen who was then in New Hamp
shire confering with the Granite
State solons.
Jail Not Explained
Governor Proctor said the man
uscript did not explain what as
sistance Page gave Col. Allen,
adding:
“But it must have been forceful
to land him in jail.”
The manuscript report ended,
he said, with the intimation that
unless further demands by New
Hampshire were overruled by
| Congress, Vermont would join up
with Canada.
