REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN.
The Selectmen of the Town of Weymouth submit herewith their annual report, with a statement of expenditures on account of the different departments of town service for the year ending Dec. 31, 1892.
HIGHWAYS.
1
The appropriation at the last annual meeting for the general repair of highways was $10,539.38. Of this sum, $10,521.17 has been expended, leaving on hand a balance of $17.51. The several sums appropriated for special purposes have been mostly ex- pended. There remains, however, in the treasury $50 of the amount appropriated for the construction of Front Street as relocated by thé County Commissioners, and which, by their de- cree. should have been completed the present year. At least $2,000 more will be required to finish the work. The sum ex- pended for the removal of snow has exceeded the appropriation $327.62, and that for repairs to the Hingham and Quincy bridges, $695.39 ; the latter was mostly on account of the necessary rebuilding of the abutment at the easterly end of the Hingham bridge, and for repairs to the house occupied by the draw-tender at Quincy Point.
During the year 13,321 loads of gravel have been used in making repairs upon our highways, and they are now in good con- dition, comparing favorably with those of surrounding towns where much larger sums have been expended.
Action is now pending upon petitions for three new streets which may be reported to the town for acceptance at the coming annual meeting, viz. : A street running from Prospect Street to Richmond Street, estimated cost of construction, $300; & street running from Pleasant Street to Torrey Street, estimated cost of construction, $500 ; and an avenue off Broad Street near Vine Street, estimated cost of construction, $300. Of the new streets and relocation of streets already accepted
8
by the town there remain to be constructed a portion of Chard Street in Ward 2, an avenue off Broad Street in Ward 2, a por- tion of Summit Street in Ward 3, the widening of Pearl Street in Ward 1, and the extension of King Avenue, Ward 3, to Broad Street. Appropriations for the completion of some of these streets will probably be asked for.
Shortly after the annual meeting in March last, Henry A. Nash was chosen superintendent of streets, and the local member of the board was given charge of the highways in his respective ward.
STREET RAILWAY.
The Quincy and Boston Street Railway Company have been granted a location for their tracks as follows, viz .: Beginning at a point on the boundary line between the city of Quincy and the town of Weymouth, on the southerly side of the bridge over Wey- mouth Ford River, south of the southerly railing thereon, thence easterly upon a widening of said bridge, to be constructed and maintained by the railway company to Bridge Street, thence along . Bridge Street to its intersection of Sea Street. Beginning again on North Street in front of the shop of Lemuel Torrey, thence on North, Commercial, Middle, and Broad Streets to Commercial Square. Beginning again at the junction of Sea Street with North Street, thence on Sea Street to its termination near the river.
The conditions upon which the company will be allowed to cross the Quincy bridge have been practically agreed upon between the trustees of the bridges and the company, and the details will shortly be arranged.
POLICE DEPARTMENT.
The appropriation for this department was $2,719.66, and the expenditures have been $1,959.43, leaving a balance of $760.23, which should be sufficient to cover expenses for the remainder of the financial year. The balance of the appropriation for the suppression of the illegal sale of intoxicating liquors is $334.73, a sum not sufficient at the present rate of monthly expenditure to
9
cover expenses to March 1. The sum raised in 1891, viz., $500, for the purpose of building a lock-up in Ward 1, still remains in the treasury.
ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
The appropriation for the purpose of electric lighting was $6,206.46, of which amount there remains unexpended the sum of $1,293.72, which, with the present number of lights, will be sufficient to cover expenses to April 1, 1893.
FIRE DEPARTMENT.
For the support of this department the appropriation was $5,275.31 ; expenditures have been $3,742.13, leaving the balance, $1,533.18, to cover expenses to April 1, 1893.
MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSES.
The appropriation for this account was $4,352.66, of which there has been expended $2,926.46, leaving a balance of $1,426.20. As there are now three suits pending against the town for alleged defects in the highways, there is some uncertainty as to whether this amount will cover expenses for the financial year.
TOWN DEBT.
Notes have been approved during the year for $22,000 on account of new library building, and for $2,500 on account of fire-alarm system. There has been paid one note of $5,500, which leaves the amount of notes now outstanding against the town $85,092. 'Two notes will become due in 1893, viz. : one for $3,000, Oct. 1, and one for $2,500, Oct. 15, for the payment of which provision must be made.
SUITS AT LAW.
The action of Enos D. Raymond r. Weymouth, for damages to his property caused by freshets, which was pending in the Superior Court at the date of our last report, was settled by the payment of the sum of $175 by the town to the plaintiff in May last.
10
The action of George W. Gardner v. Weymouthi, in which ex ceptions to the rulings of the Superior Court were pending in the Supreme Judicial Court at the close of last year, was terminated by the entry of judgment for the town, the defendant's exceptions having been sustained by the Supreme Judicial Court.
Three suits against the town have been entered in the Superior Court for Norfolk County during the last year, and are now pend- ing therein, namely : -
The suit of David J. Pierce, administrator of the estate of Harriet N. Clapp v. Weymouth, for personal injuries suffered by Mrs. Clapp from falling on the ice.
The suit of Henry C. Gardner, of Hingham, v. Weymouth, for personal injuries to him, resulting from an alleged " defect " in a street at East Weymouth.
The suit of Margaret A. Hyland, per pro ami, v. Weymouth, forpersonal injuries caused by a fall upon an icy sidewalk.
GUIDE BOARDS.
Many of the guide boards throughout the town are becoming worn and dilapidated, and should be replaced by some of more modern pattern, and the board recommend an appropriation for that purpose.
Respectfully submitted,
J. CLARENCE HOWE, HENRY A. NASH, LEONARD V. TIRRELL, GEO. H. BICKNELL, HIRAM E. RAYMOND, Selectmen of Weymouth.
