From the first, your committee has regretted that the will of Mr. Roby restricts them in their choice of a library site. The building, which, in itself, is hoped to be an architectural feature of the town, must of necessity be built upon a side hill and low, marshy land. A change in location seemed so desirable, that opinions of different lawyers and judges were taken, as to whether the terms of the will would permit such a change, but these opinions caused so much doubt in the minds of the committee that the idea of relocation was abandoned.
53
Your committee, with the assistance of Prof. Chandler, has in- vited competent architects to enter a competition for plans for the library building, and hopes to render a decision speedily. The work on the building will be begun as soon as the season will per- mit.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLARD A. BULLARD, EDWIN W. MARSTON, ALFRED W. CUTTING, CHESTER B. WILLIAMS, CHARLES F. RICHARDSON,

We recommend that the sum of six hundred and forty dollars be transferred from water rates to pay interest on water bonds.
That the selectmen be authorized to draw from contingent fund such sums of money as may be necessary, not exceeding five hun- dred dollars for assisting needy soldiers and their families.
That the overseers of the poor be authorized to build a wagon and tool shed at the poor farm from the money appropriated for support of poor, if in their judgment there is sufficient money for that purpose.
That the sum of three thousand dollars appropriated for interest be taken from the contingent fund.
That the sum of five hundred dollars be appropriated to repair and widen the road at the Willows if an electric railway is built from Cochituate village to Wayland, and that the same be drawn from the contingent fund.
That the money for removing snow be drawn from the contingent fund.
That for the year 1899 the collector's pay be four hundred dollars.
That the town should have the same reduction for hydrants that has been granted to water takers.
We feel that these appropriations are larger than the town should make with its present valuation, yet the necessities of the various departments seem to require them.
