TOWN OF RANDOLPH


Report of Selectmen


The Selectmen of the Town of Randolph for the year 1912 herewith submit their report of receipts and expendi- tures for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1912.


The statement of expenditures and appropriations on the preceding page shows a total overdraft of $2,598.78.


The increase in the valuation of the Town of Randolph over $2,500,000. has rendered the town ineligible to share in the Mass. School Fund. This was something not an- ticipated by the Committee on appropriation and caused a loss to the School Department of about $900.


The care and support of the worthy poor while always a difficult problem, has in recent years become a matter of grave concern to the taxpayer. The appropriation has been gradually reduced and the increase in population has not been taken into consideration by the Annual Appro- priation Committee. Sickness or hospital expenses can- not be anticipated or guarded against and this year have resulted in a large expenditure over and above the appro- appropriation made for the Poor out of Almshouse.


The overdraft at the Almshouse can be readily under- stood when one considers that the average number of


9


SEVENTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORT


inmates has been larger than at any time for several years.


The frequency of wood and forest fires during the past year has been a source of great expense to the town. No provision was made at the Annual Town Meeting to pro- vide money to meet this expense and a deficit of$706.60 on this one item is the result.


Overdrafts and unexpended balances in the other de- partments of the town approximately balance.

Selectmen.

Paid snow bill of 1911 and 1912; crushed 1,000 tons stone. Woodlawn Street, built new catch basin and laid 60 ft. drain pipe. Repairs on crusher quite an expense.
