Includes Article I: Of the General Duties of the Towns; Article II: Of the Powers and Obligations of School Districts, and the Assessments and Collection of Moneys, Raised by such Districts; Article III: Of the Duties and Powers of the Superintending School Committees and School Agents, and the Qualifications and Duties of Instructors; Article IV: Special Provisions Relating to the Regulations and Endowment of Schools, and Affecting the Government and Discipline of Literary Institutions.

Very rare. OCLC locates one copy: Trinity College. Sabin and American Imprints report a copy at the Boston Public Library, but not found on their online catalogue. The printed version of Sabin lists this item as 43959, but the online version compiled by Gale assigns this number incorrectly to an 1826 version of 11 pages.
