Report of the Selectmen
To the Citizens of Duxbury :
Your board of Selectmen make the following report:
The work of the Selectmen does not vary much from year to year with the exception of extra burdens caused either by Acts of the Legislature or by vote of the town.
The laws are continually changing which require a great deal of study in order to carry on the business of the town economically.
All officers not chosen by ballot were appointed by the Selectmen.
The work of constructing Congress and West streets has been extended as far as money would allow. The State, County and Town each appropriating $5,000.00. The road is completed from the Pembroke line easterly as far as Thomas Alden's Corner so-called. And quite an amount of cutting and filling done on the remainder.
There is one and eight-tenths miles more to build to com- plete the work to the State Highway at Millbrook Corner. It would seem advisable to appropriate at the coming March meeting an amount large enough in connection with what the State and county will donate to complete the work.
As by vote of the town appropriating money for snow equipment. Your Selectmen and Superintendent of Streets purchased from the Eastern Tractor Co., a five-ton Holt Tractor with winter equipment with a five ton Sargent Snow Plow.
This equipment was purchased soon after town meeting for $5,250 which was $250 less than the price would be in the fall.
6
The Tractor has been used at very good advantage in pulling trees and stumps while constructing Congress and West Streets.
We would recommend that the voters be as careful as possible in appropriating any more money than is necessary for the running expenses as the people are feeling the burden of taxation.
Respectfully submitted, SIDNEY C. SOULE WENDELL PHILLIPS ALFRED E. GREEN
Selectmen of Duxbury.
