Report of the By-Laws Committee
It has been brought decisively to the attention of this Committee that the Town should vote as to the advisability of carrying adequate fire and compensation insurance and we recommend that the Moderator appoint a committee of five to study the problem and report at the next annual town meeting.
After examining the by-laws of several towns of the size of Carver we find that at the present time the Carver By-Laws seem to cover our immediate needs.
Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM H. HARRIMAN, RODNEY GRIFFITH, THOMAS KENNEY, EBENEZER A. SHAW.
