IN MEMORIAM.
JAMES LOGAN.
On December 27th, 1924, the community was sad- dened by the unexpected death of our brother fireman, Lieut. James Logan of Ladder Co. No. 1, also a mem- ber of the Hon. Board of Selectmen.
In behalf of the firemen and particularly the mem- bers of Ladder Co. No. 1, we lament the passing of one who has been ever ready to answer any call to duty and ever ready to proffer the hand of aid and friendship to all.
He was an active citizen of Milford, whose utmost endeavors were exerted for its welfare and prosperity, a real friend who was dear to us all.

. Maintenance account this year is in excess of last as was to be expected in some degree at least, due to the necessary care of the additional disposal plant, and on face of the above, returns show an increase of Six Hundred Seventeen Dollars and Eight Cents ($617 08). Three Hundred Fifty Dollars ($350.00) is for land taking which was unusual and unforeseen, but was paid on advice of Town Counsel and our own best judgment, in order to avoid present and future expense on roadway, but this amount is practically offset by the unpaid bills of Two Hundred Seventy - Five Dollars and Eighty-Four Cents ($275.84), so that additional expense is about Six Hun- dred Dollars ($600.00.)
Unpaid bills of the construction account amount to Five Hundred Thirty Three Dollars and Fifty-Three Cents ($533 .- 53), making total unpaid bills of the department Eight Hun- dred Nine Dollars and Thirty -seven Cents ($809.37,) which
95
were incurred through a misunderstanding of the availability of the amount returned to this department by the Charles R. Gow Company, of One Thousand Dollars ($1000 00), and due to the ruling of the Town Treasurer it could not be used by this department.
In reference to the construction of the additional dispos- al plant, reference is made to the report of the Engineer hereto appended.
We recommend for the coming year the following appro-
priations :
Sewer maintenance
$7,600 09
Completion of additional disposal plant 3,500 00 .
Unpaid bills .
809 37
Total
. $11,909 37
We also advise and recommend that you give careful consideration of the wants of citizens who are in dire need of street sewers.

Report of Engineers to Sewerage Commission.
Boston, Mass., January 16, 1925.
Dear Sirs :-
We respectfully submit the following statement of opera- tions during the past year in connection with construction of additional sewage disposal plant.
As you know, the original contract for constructing the additional disposal plant was terminated by the acceptance by your board of the contribution of $1000 made by the C. R. Gow Company early in the year, as their share of costs of com- pleting the work.
In view of the character and amount of work remaining to be completed, it was decided by you to complete this work with local labor, consequently, in May, an agreement between the Town of Milford and Marbel Mainini was entered into, whereby Mr. Mainini was to receive a fixed weekly wage and 10 per cent of amount paid by him for labor employed in the completion. of construction.
About the middle of August, the question of the right to use the $1,000 contributed by the C. R. Gow Company for- their share of the cost of completing the construction was raised and as this amount formed a considerable part of the available funds and as Mr. Mainini had about completed all the work he could do at that time, orders were given to stop work.
On September 4, we were advised by letter from your board that the $1000 received from the C. R Gow Company would not be available for expenditure in completing the con- struction, a vote of the town being necessary to authorize its use for this purpose.
The additional disposal plant, is therefore, not completed at this time, and we are informed that the construction ac-
97
count fund is exhausted. It appears, therefore, that a state- ment of the estimated cost to complete construction necessary to plice this plant in complete working condition is now in order.
Based upon recent observations and estimates, it appears that in addition to the amount contributed by the Gow Com- pany, which, in our judgment, can only be used for the com- pletion of construction of the plant, that $2500 will be neces- sary to finish the work.
We, therefore, recommend that the above stated amount of money be raised so that the additional disposal plant may be completed as quickly as possible.
Very truly yours. BARBOUR AND DIXON.
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE TOWN LIBRARY.
The Trustees of the Library respectfully submit the following :
Since the last annual report we have suffered the loss of our faithful chairman, Patrick E. Sweeney. Mr. Sweeney had been a member of the Library Trustees for a number of years and was especially well equipped and keenly interested in the library work.
During the past year the library circulation has in- creased over all previous years the circulation for 1924 being over 52,000 books. Records show an increase of 17,417 in the circulation in five years. This large in- crease in the circulation has required the addition of more assistants to the library staff.
The Readng Room was visited by 10,000 people during the year just closed, which shows that nearly every inhabitant of the town visited there once.
We are pleased to note the interest shown by our school children in obtaining books and feel that much good has been derived. As the year 1925 advances we hope the teachers will encourage further reading.
Miss Louise Jones of the State Department of Li- braries visited the library twice and made several sug- gestions most of which have been carried out. The li- brary was painted and thoroughly cleaned during the summer and we are well pleased with its appearance.
As the Library circulation increases we are nat- urally confronted with more demands in order to cope with the situation and in this report we shall mention
99
some of them. More money is needed for salaries of the Librarian and his assistants. More books are need- ed. The library should be open daily, and a part of the library should be set off as a Children's Room.
Very truly yours, THOMAS J. Nugent, D. M. D., Chairman Library Trustees
