In October a contract was awarded Cashman Bros. Co. to clean and resurface the open filters, and reconstruct the covered filter. This work has progressed well but has proven to be more of a job than was at first! contemplated, and is not completed at the time of writing this report, but will be early in the new year. Some bills for this work remain unpaid.
The following report of the Treasurer will give the financial figures for the year.

CITY SOLICITOR
CITY SOLICITOR
December 31, 1923.
Gentlemen of the City Council.
Newburyport, Mass.
In accordance with municipal ordinance, I desire to render a report of the matters pending in our Law Department:
First, during the past year all tort claims for highway defects have been taken care of either by verdict or by settlement with the exception of the case of George P. True, now pending before the Superior Court in the sum of three thousand dollars ($3000.00), for alleged injuries received from a highway defect caused by an alleged condition of the side walk in front of the Strand Theatre. The plaintiff claiming that a chalk substance placed thereon produced a slippery side walk and constituted a defect.
There are two (2) other suits pending against the City :
First, the suit of Benjamin J. Checkoway, replevin action, resulting from the action of the City of Newburyport in clearing Ferry Wharf.
Also, suit of Eben P. Allen in which he seeks to recover about sixteen hundred dollars ($1600.00), for compensation money which he contends the City owes him.
The Workmen's Compensation case of John F. Bryant has not yet been cleared up, although the Industrial Accident Board has restricted his compensation to $5.22 per week.
Items of my expense account are on file with the City Auditor.
The Eminent Domain proceedings for the new Primary School House has been cleared up with the exception of the claim of Mary Haskell for a small strip of land, answering for a driveway.
The persons involved in the Central Park Taking have accepted their awards, excepting in one or two cases and from all appearance there will be a very few law suits in connection with the Merrimac Street Taking.
Respectfully submitted, JAMES F CARENS Jr .. City Solicitor.
P. S. I have been notified within a few minutes that Judge Joseph Walsh of the Superior Court has set aside the verdict rendered against the City in the case of George B. and Katie B. Merrill.
