On this work the Highway Commission awarded the contract to the Town at certain prices, the Selectmen sublet the contract to the lowest bidder T. A. Moynihan at certain

other prices, thereby making a profit for the town of $681.40. Before making the contract the Selectmen were obliged to agree to furnish an outlet for drains from the Massachusetts Highway location on Main Street to ditch in C. E. Dodge's field, as there was an appropriation of $2000 for a per- manent road on Willow Street which was a flat undrained location. Acting on the advice of the Engineering Depart- ment of the Highway Commission it was thought advisable to drain Asbury Street from Maple Street and Willow Street from Mill Street to the State Highway drain on Main Street, as the Highway Commission were about to place 12 inch pipe on Main Street, being sufficient for their purposes, in order to connect up with that drain the town was required to pay the difference between a 12 inch pipe and a 15 inch pipe, which was 15 cents per ft., all of which we were able to do out of the profits on the State Highway contract.
