特授浙江绍兴府新昌县正堂加五级记录十二次宾：为呈请示禁等事。据十都乡宾胡永信、民
人杨相治、王福明、黄明高、蔡贵禄、徐仙国、陈朝增等呈称：五村接壤，先人于明季捐造
胡公境庙一座，庙前有天涨沙涂一带，公议立约，培样竹木，所得花息，以为是庙春祈秋报
之资，兼保庙宇、粮田。前遭杨姓藉砍讦讼控，蒙前任章主委勘讯结，该处沙涂断令仍归胡
公庙为业，照旧培样收花公用。第三堡村民，培植沙涂竹木成林，费尽苦工，近有无耻之徒，
不时登涂伐竹砍木，因无现获，不敢指控。身等清夜思维，沙涂虽蒙断管培样，未沐出示严
禁，是以顽民窃砍无忌，若不预为请禁，不惟竹木难保，抑且祈报无资，为此閤叩出示严禁
等情到县，据此除批示外，合行出示谕禁。为此示仰该处住近居民知悉，自示之后，尔等务
须各安本分，不得盗砍胡公庙前涂内公养竹木，倘敢故违不遵，仍蹈前辙，许干首地保指名
禀县，以凭提案究处，断不宽贷，各宜凛遵毋违！
特示右仰 知悉

By Bin, Magistrate of Xinchang County, Shaoxing Prefecture, Zhejiang, with five merit ranks and twelve commendations:
Regarding petition for prohibition: Hu Yongxin (village elder) and commoners Yang Xiangzhi, Wang Fuming, Huang Minggao, Cai Guilu, Xu Xianguo, Chen Chaozeng et al. petition: Five adjacent villages jointly built Lord Hu Temple in late Ming. Before it lies naturally silted sand flats publicly cultivated with bamboo/woods, proceeds funding spring-autumn sacrifices and protecting temple farmlands. Previously, Yang clan illegally felled trees and litigated. Former Magistrate Zhang investigated and adjudicated: the flats remain temple property for cultivation. Now three-burg villagers' decades of labor have grown woods, but recent thieves frequently steal. Lacking evidence, we dare not accuse. Though flats are judicially confirmed, without official prohibition, outlaws plunder recklessly. Without ban, woods and sacrifices cannot be sustained.
Therefore decreed: All residents near the sand flats are ordered: henceforth, steal no bamboo/woods from temple flats. Violators will be reported to this office by foremen and local guards for prosecution under no leniency. Obey strictly!
