To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, City of Newburyport.
Gentlemen :-
The twenty-fifth annual report of the Board of Water Commissioners for the year ending December 18th, 1920 is herewith presented.
Completing the work outlined in our previous report we finished the in- stallation of a six inch main in Chapel Street, and set a hydrant at the corner of this street and Payson Street, offording fire protection for a large tract that had practically no protection previously. All service connections on this street have been changed to the new pipe, the old one having been discontin- ued.
A twelve inch pipe has been laid in Summer Street replacing the four inch one. This pipe is connected with the Merrimac and High street mains, and is tied in at Pleasant and Washington Street. Large size hydrants have been set at the junction of this street and Pleasant and Washington Streets, and all the service pipes were relaid. This improvement must increase the supply throughout the lower section of the city.
Continuing the street work of last year, and in advance of street im- provements, all service pipes in High Street between State Street and Toppan's Lane have been relaid, many of them with larger size pipes. All the fire hydrants, fourteen in number, have been reset with larger ones, and the cross street connections at Auburn and Johnson Street and Vernon Court have been relaid with cast iron pipe. In replacing the hydrant at the head of Johnson Street it was thought best to relocate the same, and a six inch pipe was laid in Johnson Street a distance of 129 ft. and 6 in. and a hydrant located at the end of this pipe, affording better fire protection for all the property in that territory.
Each year the service pipes in the streets grow older the number of re- pairs necessarily increase. This year we have been called upon to make many replacements there having been thirty leaks in these pipes. There have also been six breaks in main pipes.
During the past few years we have been fortunate in being able to secure coal of good quality, there being ample supply at the station at the present time to last until the first of July 1921. This coal cost us $4.00 per ton at the mines.
122
ANNUAL REPORT
In line with the policy outlined in our last report all rates were increased the 1 st of July 1921.
The amount obtained in this way has been sufficient to clear up the balance of $6,000.00 owed the city treasurer last year on bonds, and to pay all our outstanding obligations this year.
The following figures give details of the work during the year, those of the Treasurer giving the financial figures. As stated above all bills against this department are paid.
15 hydrants reset with larger ones.
3 new hydrants set, One in Chapel St., One in Story Ave., and One in Summer Street.
25 new service pipes installed, requiring 925 ft. 8 inches of pipe.
89 service pipes relaid, requiring 1,731 feet of pipe.
30 breaks in service pipes repaired.
6 breaks in main pipes repaired.
129 ft. 6 inches of 6 inch pipe laid in Johnson Street.

ANNUAL REPORT OF CITY SOLICITOR
January 1, 1921.
To the City Council:
Gentlemen :- I submit my annual report.
As to the cases in court pending at the beginning of the year ---
DeCourcey vs. Kenney still awaits the decision of the Judge.
Walsh vs. Newburyport, in the Police Court, still slumbers on and prob- ably will until there is some general dismissal of old cases by the Court.
Eugene Averell vs. Newburyport was decided by the Superior Court in favor of the plaintiff. I took it to the Supreme Judicial Court, which decided it in favor of the city.
Tolman vs. City of Newburyport has not been reached for trial.
The tax appeal of the owners of Plum Island was dismissed early in the year.
In the Land Court the pending petition of the Newburyport Gas and Electric Company will doubtless be disposed of under the arrangement which lately passed the City Council:
During the year the following actions against the City have been brought in the Superior Court:
Daniel Casey vs. Newburyport, an action for damages from stoppage of a sewer.
Dora Woodman, vs. Newburyport, an action for personal injuries claimed to have been received through a defect on Water street.
Annie Griffin vs. Newburyport, an action for damages for personal in- juries claimed to have been received on Milk street.
These last three actions, with the Tolman case, were on the trial list for the October sitting at Newburyport. The Griffin case was settled by judg- ment being entered for the plaintiff, by agreement, for $750. The accident was claimed to have been caused by a water box projecting above the surface of the sidewalk, and was investigated by the insurance people at the request of the Water Department, and the amount of the settlement was within the amount recommended by them and had the approval of the Committee on Claims.
Richardson vs. Newburyport, an action for personal injuries claimed to have been received through a defect in High street, near the head of Win- ter street. This was entered in court the first Monday of December, and I have appeared and filed an answer.
In the case of Averell vs. Newburyport before mentioned, the plaintiff,. after the decision of the Supreme Judicial Court, moved for and obtained an
133
CITY SOLICITOR
order to become nonsuit or discontinue his case and began a new, which was entered in the Superior Court on the first Monday of November. This last case has been heard in the Superior Court the present month and is awaiting the decision.
At the request of the Overseers of the Poor and the Mayor, I have, in accordance with an order of the City Council, brought an action against an inmate of the almshouse to recover for her support, it having been discovered that she had transferred, without consideration, so far as appears, her interest in an estate to which she was an heir. That writ is returnable to court on the first Monday of January, 1921.
There is a Police Court case in which the City is summoned as trustee, returnable in Police Court on the first day of January, 1921.
In the Land Court there have been three cases in which persons seeking to register their titles to land have claimed ownership or rights in the streets, which I did not consider they were entitled to, and so have appeared and filed answers in opposition thereto. These have all been disposed of by satisfac- tory arrangements and decrees.
In this city the situation is different from what it is in many younger places. In some particular streets the city owns the soil, such streets being those which were laid out by the Proprietors of the Common Lands of New- bury over their own land and not over land of private persons. Also many of our streets were laid out so many years ago that there are no plans of the same and it is not easy to define the lines. Therefore it is necessary to pay at- tention to these cases and see that no one obtains title to land which is the city's and that the street lines are properly located. So far as appears the number of registration cases is likely to increase and there will be more of such matters to be looked after. Not infrequently they call for a considerable research to get at the lines and rights of parties.
In May the Newburyport Gas and Electric Company petitioned for an in- crease of gas rates. I appeared before the Public Utilities board two days on hearings on the same. In June I appeared before the same board on an ap- peal by the Massachusetts Northeastern Street Railway, seeking a revision of the jitney ordinance, and on two days in December, 1920, on the petition of the Gas Company for an issue of bonds. I attended on a day set for a hearing before the Public Works Department on the Harbor of Refuge, but the board was not there.
In Legislative matters, I drew a bill to make Moseley Avenue a state highway and appeared before /the Roads and Bridges Committee of the Legis- lature in support of the same. I appeared and attended before the Commit- tee on Ways and Means of the Legislature on the Plum Island bill, on March 24, April 3, April 6 and 16. The result was the appointment of a commis- sion to report to the next Legislature. I drew a petition and act to amend the Trustees of Newburyport Trust Funds law, to substitute the President of the City Council for the President of the Common Council as trustee. Also at the hearing of the bill for preliminary elections in Newburyport. I appeared before the Legislature in opposition to a bill presented by someone from the

south end of the County to take from the County the duty of maintaining Plum Island Turnpike and bridge, our fear being that as a result this bridge might be saddled upon Newburyport largely. The bill was not allowed to be introduced into the Legislature, coming late. That the attempt will be made at the session of the incoming Legislature to do something of that sort is al- most certain and Newburyport should be on the watch and defend itself vig- orously in respect of that matter. The County Commissioners would, in my opinion, if they got the authority, build an expensive bridge there and strong efforts would be made to have the cost paid by this vicinity.
I attended and spoke at the hearing on report of the committee appoint- ed by the Governor to consider the railroad situation. I have attended con- ferences with representatives of Newbury, Ipswich and Rowley in respect of the Georgetown, Rowley & Ipswich Street Railway and its abandonment and corresponded with some legislators in respect of the same.
I have attended to some criminal matters in the Police Court as the Marshal has called upon me to do. I have drawn quite a number of ordin- ances, occasioned in large part by the change in the City's charter; have drawn several contracts, deeds and agreements, orders for the City Council, given advice, almost daily, in City affairs and to City officials.
The Assessors made, this year, a large raise in the valuation of Plum Island, in respect of which the Plum Island Beach Company has protested and in respect of which I have had correspondence. The tax has not been paid. I apprehend that the Company will do what it can to avoid paying it.
At the request of the City Council I have had considerable correspond- ence with the Public Utilities board, Interstate Commerce Commission, Con- gressman Lufkin, officials of the Boston and Maine Railroad and others touch- ing the trains to Portsmouth.
I attended the hearing at the Court House in this City, before the United States engineers, in relation to the Plum Island bridge draw.
The most important matter in sight in the immediate future relates to Plum Island, particularly the bridge and turnpike. They appear to be mat- ters of a great deal of importance if the City is not to be saddled with expense which will take many years to pay.
My expenditures for the year have been $197.95 and my receipts $182.30
Respectfully submitted,
HORACE I. BARTLETT,
City Solicitor.
