Constables

In colonial times, a constable was the “keeper of peace” responsible for maintaining the tranquility enjoyed by the citizens of a community. When Police Departments were formed, the powers and duties of the constable shifted. Today, constables are responsible for posting Town Meeting and Election warrants, serving civil papers, and overseeing order at Town Meetings and elections.
