MEMORANDUM.


The city holds 424 shares of Boston & Maine railroad common stock received in exchange for its holdings in Newburyport City railroad stock. The market value of the B. & M. stock at close of books today is quoted at $160 per share. At the price quoted the stock would be worth $67,840, which, if sold at said price, would reduce the net debt of the city that amount.
