 13 subdivision or municipal corporation of the state for which such person
 14 shall be chosen or within which such person's official functions are
 15 required to be exercised, shall not prevent a person from holding the
 16 office of town clerk of the town of Bethany, provided that such person
 17 resides in an adjoining town or village in the county in which such town
 18 is located. Provided, however, the person performing the functions of
 19 town clerk in any other town shall be a resident of such town, unless
