REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN.
THE Selectmen of the town of Weymouth respectfully submit the following Report, annexed to which will be found a schedule of receipts and expenditures for the year ending December 31, 1884.
At the last annual meeting the sum of $11,000 was appropriated for highway purposes. Of this sum $1,500 has been expended in working the widening, straightening, and change of grade of Mid- dle Street from near the Town House to the land of Samuel Estes, in accordance with the plan accepted by the town. About $100 more will be needed to complete the work. The remainder of expenditure has been for general highway repairs, and our roads are now in fair condition.
Hawthorne Street, running from High to Cedar Street, is the only new street laid out and accepted by the town that has not been worked. The land damage in this street is small, and it could probably be built for a sum not exceeding $500.
Owing to the introduction of water through the town during the coming year, the principal street will necessarily be considerably bro- ken up, and for that reason a small appropriation only will be needed for the repairs of highways. Several new streets, and the widening and straightening of old ones, have been petitioned for, and have been laid out by our Board ; but it of course remains with the town to say whether any of them will be accepted, and appropriations made for their working. At a special town meeting, the sum of $500 was appropriated for the widening of a part of Summer Street. The work has been completed within the appropriation, and the street much improved.
The sum of $800 was appropriated at the last annual meeting for the suppression of the illegal sale of intoxicating liquors in the town, and, under this appropriation, the services of F. W. Lewis,
4
Esq., were secured, as prosecuting attorney, and those of Nelson W. Gardner, as special officer. Whether or not this is a judicious expenditure, we leave the town to judge.
A course of lectures was delivered during the past autumn at the Landing, the expenses of which were paid from the income of the "Tufts Fund." These lectures were much better attended than those of the last season, and appeared to give very general satisfaction.
As the Board of Health, we have been called upon much more frequently than in former years, and in most instances where com- plaints have been made, the parties complained. of have cheerfully complied with such suggestions as have been made for the im- . provement of the sanitary condition of their premises.
The guide-boards of the town have been examined, and found to be in good condition.
As will be seen from the accompanying statement of expenses for the year, the total expenditures have been kept within the sum appropriated by the town, and notwithstanding the additional ap- propriation of $4,500 at special town meetings, which amount was not included in the taxes of this year, and an excess of more than $2,100 over the appropriation on Poor Account, as will be shown in that report, the debt of the town has been increased less than $200.
