Excerpt from An Opinion Upon the Powers and Duties of the Trustees of the Freeholders and Commonalty of the Town of Huntington: Especially With Reference to Lands Under Tide Waters; The Oyster Fisheries, and Dock Franchises, With a Historical Review of the Early Settlement of the Town At an annual town meeting of the Town of Huntington, held on the 4th day of April, 1871, a Resolution was passed in open meeting authorizing and directing the Trustees of the Town to lease all the oyster grounds within the Town, and before making any such leases to consult and obtain the opinion of counsel as to what particular oyster grounds the Town has control over, and as to the best and safest manner of making such leases. At a meeting of the Trustees, at which there was a full attendance, on the 6th day of May, 1871, the following resolution was passed by the Board: Resolved: That the President of the Board employ counsel, on behalf of the Board, to investigate and give an opinion as to the powers and duties of the Trustees, respecting the rights of the Town to lands under tide waters, and to have the same printed. Pursuant to such authority, the Board of Trustees employed the undersigned to give an opinion in writing upon the points stated in the above resolution. In collecting materials for an opinion we found it necessary to examine the records, as to the ancient charters and grants, in the office of the Secretary of State, at Albany, and to carefully examine the records and papers in the Clerk´s office of the Town of Huntington, and we cheerfully testify to the prompt and valuable aid rendered us by the Deputy Secretary of State, Diedrich Willers, Jr., and the obliging Clerk of the Town, Daniel L. Baylis. We are, also, under obligations to the Librarian of the New York City Library, for the convenient access furnished to its rare and very full collection of ancient text-books and Reports of English Cases bearing upon the subject. We submit the following opinion as embodying our views upon the subjects embraced within the inquiry submitted to us.
