Gentlemen, in this my first report as Superintendent of Water Works, I will say that when I was placed in charge of same, I found there was not a tool of any kind to work with. I have purchased what tools I needed.


I found the gate-house in bad repair. Have had the same put in good shape and painted, and have also had the hydrants painted, as they needed it very much. I have also had quite a lot of repairs to make on the works, most impor- tant of which was the lowering of main pipes on King street.


The water in reservoir is in poor condition, and is growing worse every year. The cause of same is overflow of water from upper pond. I would recommend that the Town ap- propriate a sum of money sufficient to carry water of upper pond around lower pond, so that no water from upper pond could flow into the lower pond. The water is used by the fol- lowing :

REPORT OF ENGINEERS OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.


The Department has responded to three alarms during the year.


April 1. Woods fire (Hammond).


Aug. 31. Mrs. Carroll's house.


Oct. 22. Woods fire (Shaw).


The Engineers have received a request for an extension of the fire-alarm system to Simpson's corner. The large amount of property located on the proposed extension that would be better protected makes it seem to the Engineers that the request should be granted, and for that purpose, and to make some necessary repairs in the present system, we would ask the town to appropriate the sum of two hundred dollars.


The Department is in excellent condition as regards appara- tus, buildings, and membership.

WM. W. LOVEJOY,


Treasurer.


When the committee took charge of the cemetery, they found the condition of many lots such that it was decided to establish permanent bounds, make a plan, number, and make a record of them. The committee have made a record of six sections, and would have bounded them with stone bounds and numbered each lot, a work that is to be demanded by all future lot-owners. Owing to the appropriation not being large enough, the work could not be done. The committee ask for an appropriation of one hundred and fifty dollars for the ensu- ing year, that the work may be satisfactorily done, and save life-long differences in regard to ownership.
