Selectmen's Report.
To the Citizens of Williamsburg :
Your Selectmen herewith present their report for the year ending February 1, 1912.
In carrying out the vote taken at the last annual meeting for the purchase of a sprinkling wagon, it was necessary to exceed the appropriation in order to get one suitable for our needs. As our report shows we purchased a second- hand wagon, and this wagon has given good satisfaction. As to power for the crusher your Selectmen after careful consideration purchased a 25 horse power, Westinghouse Motor, which has given excellent satisfaction. The section of state road which we were unable to finish last season has been completed. One section of state road of 900 feet, known in contract as section two, and one of 2,300 feet as section one, also one of 1,830 feet as section one, extension, has been completed this season.
We were able with the funds available to extend the work 900 feet beyond the bridge near G. M. Bradford's Mill. And the whole three sections of road have been ap- proved and accepted by the State Highway Commission.
