EDGESTONES


By making use, as much as possible, of the income cre- ated by setting edgestones that was on hand, some little work was accomplished and the overdraft reduced a trifle, a little over 1230 feet of edgestone was set, and about 97 feet sold for private use.


CONCRETE


No new concrete sidewalks, of any consequence, were laid, although quite a little repair work has been done on the old ones, principally on upper High street, Merrimac and School streets.

ASHES AND RUBBISH


This department also shows an overdraft.

Total appropriation and income


$1,264 00


Expenses


1,453 66


Overdraft


$189 66


The appropriation for this department was not sufficient and an overdraft was unavoidable, even by practicing the ut- most economy and if no extra horse hire had been required.


The actual expenses are:


Two men with each of the 6 teams equals 12 extra men.


12 men at $2 equals $24 per week.


53 weeks @ $24


$1,272 00


Two men levelling dumps @ $1.80 for 53 weeks .. 190 80


$1,462 80


It should receive an appropriation of at least $1500.


In my opinion this department would give better satis- faction at the same cost, if not at less expense, if it were equipped with its own horses and cart and made an entirely separate department, not dependent on the highway and fire departments for its horses, wagons and men.


Some slight credits for ashes sold is carried over to next year.


In closing, I beg to extend to you my sincere thanks for your advice and encouragement and my acknowledgement of many courtesies received at your hands.


Respectfully submitted, G. W. LANGDON,


Superintendent of Highways.

During the year, 56 trees were planted as desired in va- rious parts of the city, although the spring months seemed unusually favorable for the planting, the severe drought of the summer proved too severe for the trees and some will need to be replaced.


The income from this fund has been applied to meet as- sessments made by the board of aldermen on seven different estates, in whole or in part for sidewalk improvements, set-

ANNUAL REPORT


OF THE


Board of Water Commissioners


To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, City of New- buryport :


Gentlemen :- The board of water commissioners here- with submits its annual report for the year ending Nov. 30th, 190I.


The order passed by your honorable body allowing this commisssion to employ one of its members as superintendent only extended to June Ist, 1901. Since that time the work has been done by the foreman and chief engineer under the direction of the board.


The past year has been a busy one in the construction department, the following new mains being laid. Six inch, 1,480 feet on Water street and 830 feet on Ocean avenue four inch, 1,972 feet on Ferry Road; two inch, 320 feet or Auburn street ; 290 feet on Railroad street, and 370 feet on Johnson street.


One hundred and four new applications were received during the year for which So new services were laid, requir- ing 3,690 feet of pipe.


Two breaks in the main on Merrimac street were caused by the construction of the new sewer. There have also been a number of breaks in service pipes along this line due to the same cause.


244


ANNUAL REPORTS


There have been several bad breaks in the six inch ce- ment lined pipe on Water street near Marlboro. This is the only locality that is giving any trouble at the present time and the entire pipe will probably have to be relaid in a few years.


Your commissioners also recognize the fact that many of the hydrants in the centre of the city have too small con- nections and outlets and it will be their policy to correct this evil, from time to time, as the opportunity may offer.


The pumping station is in first class condition and every citizen must share the pride of the commissioners in the model grounds and the fine shape in which they are kept un- der the direction of Engineer Butler. The following is the pumping record for the year :


December 16,823,014 gallons


January


16,466,021 gallons


February 15,646,708 gallons


March 17,230,246 gallons
