Last spring your Commissioners voted to relieve the town of the burden of appropriating annually the sum of $500 for the water used in its public buildings, tanks, and hydrants, thus making the total water col- lections somewhat less than last year; but with the number of water takers steadily increasing every year, this will soon be more than made good, and we
38
live in hopes to see the time when individual rates for consumers can be lowered.
JOHN W. KILEY, MICHAEL J. PROULX, JOHN H. STODDARD,
Water Commissioners.
I have this day examined the books and accounts of the Treasurer of the Water Commissioners of the Town of Hatfield and find them correct, with vouchers on file for all payments, and a balance in the Treasury of $4,242.30.
