The past year was an unusually hard one for the high- way surveyor because of restrictions put upon me by the

new war board holding up shipments of tarvia and every other material used in road construction, thereby tying my hands. But now, under present conditions, there is no reason why I cannot go on and not only improve Main street, but also the other streets. Thanking the voters for the confidence placed in me and the Town Clerk and Honorable Board of Selectmen for their many courtesies, and the hearty co-opera- tion of my workmen, I amı
Respectfully yours,
THOMAS F. DAVOREN, Highway Surveyor.
