ADDENDUM. Selectmen's Report.
Stacey Brook.
Since the report of the Board, relating to Stacey Brook, see page 158, went to press, a letter has been received from the Ways and Drainage Commission of the City of Lynn, agreeing to expend a sum of money not co exceed $15,000 for the construction of the concrete culvert referred to, providing the Town of Swampscott would appropriate a like amount.
This is a most important project on which the Board has been engaged for a period of several years and the opportunity is now offered to our citizens to correct the serious nuisance caused by the pollution of Stacy Brook, between New Ocean street and Humphrey street. The necessary recommendation for the appropriation of the sum of $15,000 for this purpose is made on page 158.
