XIII. A ROLL OF MUNICIPAL SERVICE.
The Roll of Mayors will be given in the next section, therefore it will be a fitting addenda to the History of the Corporation to give a roll of some of those who have rendered Municipal service outside the Mayoralty. In giving a list of that kind the space required will not allow us to go further back than the date of the Municipal Reform Act, of 1835, but from that date we will place on record the names of all who have served as Aldermen, Councillors, and Magis trates of the Borough of Dover down to the present time.
When the Municipal Corporations Act came into force in the last week of December 1835, the eighteen Councillors were first chosen and on the first day of the year 1836, the Councillors chose the six Aldermen and then the twenty-four members of the Council chose from amongst themselves Liie Mayor. After that the Magistrates were appointed by the Crown, chosen mainly from the old Bench of Jurats, V:)Ut some townsmen from outside were appointed. In the following lists the names will be given in the order in which they were originally elected or appointed ; Councillors first, Aldermen next, and Magistrates following. In the first
election all the eighteen Councillors were chosen and those who had been members of the old Common Council have an asterisk placed against their names. In sul)sequent years the number of new names varied, and in some years there were no new ones, that depending on the number of old members who retained their seat by re-election, the rule having been from the beginning that two Councillors in each of the three wards should retire every year.
