It was intended in this place to insert a detailed account of all the sales of the lands belonging to the State of Maine, since the separation, but on application at the Land office, it was found that the accounts of the sales prior to the year 1828, are

in such form that an accurate and intelligible detail of the kind desired, could not be obtained in season for this work. Such abstracts therefore only are given, as are afforded by the printed annual reports of the late Land agent, with those of a committee of the Legislature, and auditors, from the year *1824 so 1827 inclusive. The account however for the year 1828 is given in full from minutes furnished by the present Land agent.
