Report of the Fire Engineers.
The fire engineers submit the following report :
At the March meeting the town voted to put in a system of electric fire alarm, and the sum of $400 was appropriated for the same. The engineers after a thorough investigation of the subject, contracted with the Natick Electric Company for the same. The system con- sists of the following property :
Twenty-two cells of battery.
One galvanometer.
One ground tester.
One ten-inch gong striker in the factory of Wm. and J. M. Bent.
One six-inch gong striker in the house of Miss Nellie R. Rice.
At the reservoir about six miles of wire.
Five Stevens fire alarm boxes, located as follows :
Box No. 23, corner of Lake and German Hill streets.
Box No. 24, Main street, near Butler's store.
Box No. 25, corner of Plain and Mitchell streets.
Box No. 34, Lyons' Corner.
Box No. 36, Lokerville.
We also put in four push buttons, one each in the houses of Sidney Loker, C. C. Ward, and Miss Nellie Rice, and one in the engine house ; also one in the factory of Wm. and J. M. Bent to test the lines with. In order to get this system to our satisfaction, we were obliged to exceed the appropriation $50. We think that considering
47
the amount of territory that this system covers, and its efficiency, the engineers were justified in exceeding the appropriation this amount. In order to make this system a perfect automatic fire alarm system, it will be necessary for the town to expend about $350 for an automatic steam whistle attachment.
The selectmen requested the engineers to expend the $200 appro- priated by the town to sheath the engine house and make necessary repairs. We contracted with Mr. E. W. Marston to do this work, and it has been done in a manner satisfactory to us. Mr. Marston was unable to do the work required of him for the amount of the appropriation, but generously took off enough from his bill to meet the appropriation.
We have had the following alarms during the year :
June 1, 1889, box 34, false alarm.
Dec. 21, 1889, box 25, barn of A. O. Dunham.
In both of these alarms the fire alarm system worked in a satis- factory manner and showed its efficiency by the quick manner in which the department responded.
