REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON DRAIN RUNNING THROUGH LAND OF GEO. EVERETT ESTATE AND ALVIN FULLER MADE APRIL 3, 1905.
Article 5.
Gentlemen-Your committee appointed at a town meet- ing on September 7th, A. D. 1904, under Article 10, "to see
23
if the town will appoint a committee to investigate the matter of drainage through the land of George Everett estate and Alvin Fuller and report on same at some future meeting or take any other action" desire to report that they have been over the lands in question and have given the matter consid- erable thought and discussion. Through these lands there is- a natural water course which receives practically all the sur- face water of our village which should and finally does empty into the Neponset river. Some 15 or 20 years ago the town and Smith Brothers together constructed a pipe line which was nearly parallel with the aforementioned stream or water way and was designed to convey all the tannery sewerage di- rectly and independently to the river. We found this pipe line still doing its work perfectly well, and we found the little brook reasonably free from pollution of any kind. This brook en- ters at the northwesterly corner a piece of pasture land be- longing to the George Everett estate, for about half the .dis- tance through this piece of land (perhaps 200 yds. ) the brook has a sharp fall and there is no wet land near it, but at this point it reaches the lowest place in the pasture which is but very little above the level of the river, a mile away. Two or three acres of this part of the pasture are practically useless, just a water soaked bog. The brook there crosses under the road (Pleasant Street) into the land of the same character be- longing to Alvin Fuller. If the condition of these lands is worse than ever before it is because no channel or ditch has been kept open for a free and unobstructed flow of this wa- ter. If water cver ran freely through these lands it would do so now unless obstructed. In fact its course has become liter- ally dammed up by the heavy growth of flags and coarse grass which has been allowed to fall and decay each year. Much of the Fuller swamp has a growth of underbrush so dense as to be almost impenetrable. Beyond a distance of perhaps 100 feet from Pleasant street we were unable to find any- thing like a ditch or brook or running water. It is just a blind
24
bog for a good half mile. The only escape for the water is the slow process of percolation. From Pleasant Street to the river a mile away the fall from a level is but very little in- deed, all that can be done for these lands is to open a ditch through them and keep it open. The ditch need not be deep at any point and could doubtless be dug for $200 or $300, but your committee cannot see that it is in any way the town's province to dig or maintain such a ditch. There has been no apparent increase in volume of water in this brook in the past ten or twenty years. The town has done nothing to obstruct the course of this stream and we feel that it would be estab- lishing a dangerous precedent for the town to assume the re- sponsibility of draining these lands.
(Signed),
JAMES W. CONGER, HARVEY L. BOYDEN, Committee.

REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMITTEE.
Report of the Special Committee on laying out the addi- tion to Highland Cemetery.
The Committee which was chosen at the town meeting July 8, 1902, for the purpose of taking into consideration the purchase of the land adjoining Highland Cemetery which purchase was authorized at the same meeting, respectfully re- ports as follows :-
The Committee was instructed after consulting the Ceme- tery Commission to make recommendations to the town rela- tive to the laying out and setting apart of the newly acquired land for cemetery purpose. The land was purchased at a time when it was obtainable at a fair market price with the view of future development as it should be required rather than be- cause of any immediate necessity for burial purposes.
The Committee after careful consideration of the subject decided that it was desirable to postpone for a time any defin- ite action in the matter.
Upon the property was situated a house and barn, which have been under the care of the Selectmen, and such rents as have been collected by them have been duly accounted for and turned into the town treasury. The Committee now making this report, after conference with the Selectmen, took charge of the care of the land, from which they have received the fol- lowing amounts :
1903. From John Nugent, for grass, $35.00
1903. From E. B. Webber, for rowen, 7.00
1904. From E. B. Webber, for grass,
35.00
1904. From E. B. Webber, for apples, 5.00
$82.00
26
This amount of money is retained by the Committee.
The Committee believe it is desirable within the near fu- ture to obtain a plan for the suitable laying out of the grounds for cemetery purposes, to be in harmony with the plan of the present cemetery and the surrounding property. They ask therefore, that this report may be considered as partial and that the same committee may be continued for the purposeorig- inally named. The Committee now asks for authority to at- tempt to secure a satisfactory preliminary plan prepared by a good landscape engineer, to be submitted to the town for ap- proval. It asks for no appropriation from the town. It asks approval to use the eighty-two (82) dollars already named and what may be derived from the sale of grass the present year, in the above named attempt, it being understood and agreed that the town shall not be obligated by the committee to any additional expense by the acceptance and approval of this re- port. The barn was destroyed by fire the present year and two hundred (200) dollars received for insurance thereon was paid into the town treasury on Jan. 21, 1905.
Respectfully, FRANCIS O. WINSLOW, JAMES M. FOLAN.

THE REPORT OF COMMITTEE.
The committee appointed to investigate school accom- modations under Article 43 of the Town Warrant make the following report :
We find that the schools in the center of the town are very much congested owing to the large number of pupils belonging in the West and Balch School districts who, for want of accommodation in their own school, are sent to the
35
Guild and Everett. The following tables illustrate the con- dition of 1905 and the probable conditions for 1906. Septem- ber, 1905. The schools in the Everett and Guild buildings will be about as follows :
Everett, I ninth grade, 55
Everett, 3 eighth grades, each,
4I
Everett, 2 seventh grades, each, 42
Guild, I seventh grade, 45
Guild, 2 sixth grades, each,
52
Guild, 3 fifth grades, each,
4I
Guild, 2 fourth grades, each,
48
Guild, I third grade,
48
Guild, I second grade,
37
Guild, I first and second grade,
30
Guild, I first grade,
35 or 40
No allowance made for children moving into town. They will increase any or all the above figures. In the West school the upper room will have about 49 pupils, the lower 40 or 45.
September, 1906, the schools in the Everett and Guild buildings will be about as follows :
Everett, 3 ninth grades, each, 36
Everett, 3 eighth grades, each, 42
Guild, 2 seventh grades, each over,
40
Guild, 3 sixth grades, each, 50
Guild, 2 fifth grades, each over,
50
Guild, 2 fourth grades, each over,
50
Guild, I third grade, over,
50
Guild, I second grade, over,
50
Guild, I first grade,
55 or 60
This indicates a congestion which the people would not tolerate. No allowance made for children moving in from other towns. It would be necessary to retain a seventh grade also in the Edmund J. Shattuck School, which would crowd the lower grade rooms. Both rooms in the West School would
36
be crowded, the same condition which would probably exist in the Balch School.
If a new building were possible by next September four rooms could be immediately filled, there being the following classes attending the schools in the centre that belong in the Balch and West schools :
Grade six, 31; five, 41; four, 36; primary, 35; a total of 143, which if kept back in their own districts would relieve the congestion of the schools at the centre.
The need therefore of more school accommodation with- in the next 18 months is very evident and your committee recommend that immediate steps be taken toward the erec- tion of an eight room building in a suitable location at the south end of the town.
