Of this amount 762.00 was for violation of automobile laws, $378.30 was appealed to Superior Court, leaving a bal- ance of $912.70 returned to the town.
During the year we traded automobiles by paying $175.00. I believe that this is cheaper than trying to run a car over one year. This year's car mileage was 18,700 miles.
Permit me to take this occasion to express my apprecia- tion of your own very real support.
Respectfully submitted,
ARTHUR R. BREOR,
