The Commissioners felt last year, when an appropriation of $20,000 was made for the new work proposed, that it was a liberal sum and ample for the needs of the town. Since the work has been begun and estimates have been received, we find that this sum will not be sufficient to do what we think the town will wish to have done, viz. : to have built a good, substantial pumping station, a proper intake chamber in the pond, and the grounds well laid out and graded; so that the pumping station, instead of being an injury to the pond, will be an attraction to it. We therefore recommend and ask the town to make another appropria- tion of $2,000 ; so much of the money to be used as is necessary for the proper completion of the work ; the money to be obtained by issuing two more bonds in connection with ten already voted to be issued.


Following this report is a report of the engineer, Mr. Sears, also a detailed account of the receipts and expenditures for the year.


We are unwilling to close this report without reference to the death of the chairman of the board, Mr. Leonard W. Weston, which occurred on July 27, 1897, and in no better way perhaps can we do so, than by the following resolutions which were passed at a special meeting of the board July 31.


Whereas. God in His Infinite Wisdom has removed from our midst our fellow-townsman, Mr. Leonard W. Weston, while with deep sorrow we bow in submission to the Divine Will of Him who can see the end from the beginning and who doeth all things well, We, the remaining members of the Water Board, desire to express our appreciation and esteem of Mr. Weston by these resolutions.


Resolved, That in the death of Mr. Leonard W. Weston, the members of the Water Board have sustained a personal loss of a friend, who was always interested in their success and a towns- man, who desired always what was for the interest of the public, rather than the individual ; a member of the board, who as pre- siding officer was always courteous and affable, ready with an opinion, yet considerate of the wishes of others and ready to yield his opinion to that of the majority.


Resolved, That in his death we feel the town has lost a public- spirited citizen, and the water works one of its staunchest sup- porters. As one of the original Water Commissioners, he had to do with the construction of the works, and during all of the years


87


when others felt that the town had made a mistake in what it had undertaken, he remained firm in his belief in its ultimate success.


We rejoice that he lived to see the works on a substantial busi- ness basis ; that as chairman of the board he could participate in their reconstruction, which for several years he had seen must be undertaken. He had been more closely identified with the works than any other citizen, and in his position on the board was always ready to listen to the needs of others. Any who applied for extensions always found in him a ready supporter.


Having enjoyed the privileges himself, he applied the golden rule of doing for others as he would have them do for him.


As a member of the board he was ever ready to do his part, whether pleasant or otherwise, and never was there a call in con- nection with the water works when he allowed even his private business to interfere with public duty.

Report of the Engineer, Mr. Walter H. Sears.


MR. GEORGE L. CHAPIN,


Chairman Lincoln Water Board.


Sir :- I herewith present the following report of the work done under my direction on the Lincoln Water Works during the spring and summer of 1897 :


The work to be done consisted in renewing the means of sup- plying the town with water. The source of supply and the reser- voir remain unchanged. The work was originally built in 1874, and, although ample and well designed for that time, had become worn out and insufficient for present demands.


Several locations for the new pumping station, other than the present one, were considered. Among others, it was proposed to locate the station on what is called the Canaan shore on Dr. Tarbell's land, and lay the pipe thence in a straight line to the reservoir. The principal advantage of this location would be that it would give the shortest length of main pipe, as this is the nearest point on Sandy pond to the reservoir. This would, however, have involved the purchase or condemnation of a right of way over land not owned or controlled by the town, and the construction of a roadway suitable for hauling material, coal, etc. In order to take full advantage of this location the route selected for the pipe line would have been a straight line to the reservoir, and this would have been almost impracticable for a roadway. On the other hand, a roadway with proper grades would have been more or less circuitous and thus longer than the straight line, increasing the length of the pipe to be laid. To have laid the pipe in a direct line and build a roadway on suitable grades would have involved taking two rights of way. Moreover, by this route no advantage could be taken of the new pipe for fire service through the town. The disadvantages of this location, therefore, seemed to be greater than the advantages to be gained by merely having a shorter main pipe.


89


Another location proposed was in the field between the road leading to the present pumping station and the new road to the railroad station.


This plan would involve taking the water by gravity from the pond to the pumping station. The pipe would probably be six- teen inches in diameter and by a length varying according to the location selected. It would be necessary to purchase or condemn a right of way from the pond to the pumping station, and to build a roadway to the same. After passing through the pump the water could be returned in the twelve-inch main over the same route to the highway, or a new route could be taken to some point on the highway nearer the centre of the town. In this case another right of way and road would have to be built. The pumps would be remote from the source of supply, and in case of clogging of the screens in the screen chamber at the pond from any cause such as dead leaves, anchor ice, etc., the supply might be shut off with- out warning to the engineer and serious trouble might occur. Other disadvantages might be referred to, such as the increased cost of laying the supply pipe at the greater depth, which would be necessary in order to take the water from a proper depth below the surface of the pond.


This location, while feasible from certain standpoints, presented no great or decided advantages over the location already occupied on the shore of the pond, and in case condemnation proceedings were necessary to obtain the required rights of way, it might be difficult to persuade commissioners or juries that this location was sufficiently superior to the present one to warrant a change. Other situations were considered, but there were none which pre- sented any special advantage over that already occupied by the town, and which seems to have been wisely selected by the former engineer, Mr. Tidd.


This point is near the deepest water on the shore line, thus requiring only a short suction pipe to reach a good depth of water. The main pipe would be laid directly from the pumping station into the public road and thence in the highway all the way to the reservoir, no further purchase or condemnation of land being required for rights of way. No new road would have to be built, and the new station could be made an attractive feature to the townspeople in a location easily accessible and with appropriate and desirable natural surroundings.


90


Being laid in the main street, five hydrants could be located upon this large pipe for its whole length thus giving the whole route, including a very considerable portion of the town's property, the most effective fire service which can be had from the new main.


Your engineer therefore had no hesitancy in recommending the commissioners to proceed with the work entrusted to them on the basis of the present location of the pumping station and main pipe. A careful survey of the pipe line was therefore made, and levels taken referring all elevations to the Boston base so-called, the starting point or bench, mark being kindly furnished by the engineer of the Fitchburg railroad.


The twelve-inch cast-iron pipe having been already purchased by the Commissioners, specifications for laying the same were pre- pared and bids were received from several parties. The contract . was awarded to John T. Langford of Boston, for the sum of thirty cents per lineal foot.


Work was commenced in May and the final estimate was made July 9th. The pipe was laid from a point in the pumping station lot to the screen well at the reservoir, 6203 feet Seven new hydrants were set and gates were located approximately 1,000 feet apart. Connections were made with the old cement-lined pipe at three points, with gates between the two at each point. The new pipe may thus be entirely disconnected from the old and used only as a pumping main if desired ; ordinarily all gates would be open, giving as free delivery of water as possible. Upon being connected with the twelve-inch pipe the pressure at the pump while working was reduced some 33 feet, practically showing the advantage of the new and larger main pipe.


Specifications were also prepared for the pumping machinery and bids were asked for and received from four manufacturers of pumps. The contract for pumps and boilers was awarded to the Deane Pump Co. of Holyoke, Mass., for the sum of $4,870.00. Acting upon advice received from the counsel of the town, the Commissioners delayed taking any steps in the way of constructing the building or setting up the pumping machinery, or making any new connection at the pond for the new station.


While the work of pipe laying was being done, a survey of the whole system of pipe distribution was made, and every main gate and service box was located. A plan of this work has been made


91


on sheets, and the location of every service box has been drawn on cards, showing the owner's name and sufficient measurements to enable the service box to be found at any time when required. These cards are arranged in the general manner of the card catalogue system now in use in many public libraries, and admit of any changes being readily made and shown, while giving in a most convenient and accessible manner the information desired.


About 1183 feet of four-inch pipe was laid by Chas. C. Brown of Waltham, from the road leading to the railroad station to " Warner's," at a cost of $558.02.


I am advised that the plans of the building for the pumping machinery have been prepared acceptable to the Commissioners. When the engine house is built I would recommend that a sub- stantial gate chamber be constructed at or near the shore of the pond, with proper arrangements for handling the screens and for shutting off or letting on the water from the pond to the pumps.


Several plans for this work have been under consideration, and it is probable that a satisfactory chamber can be built when the time comes, for $500.00 to $300.00.


I am unwilling to close this report without referring to my good fortune in having been associated, during most of the work, with Mr. Weston, for many years chairman of the Water Board.


I soon learned to appreciate his good judgment and sound common sense as well as his kindly, friendly manner, and I can well understand that his loss must be greatly deplored by all his associates.


In conclusion, I wish to thank the members of the Water Board for their uniform kindness during my connection with the work.


Very respectfully,


WALTER H. SEARS.

The average cost of State roads is $10,000 per standard mile. What is meant by a standard mile is a piece of road a mile long and 15 feet wide of macadam. Nearly all State roads are graded to a width of twenty-one feet ; three feet on each side of the macadam are surfaced with gravel. About a mile and three-quarters of the Lincoln road is sur- faced with macadam the entire width of twenty-one feet. Perhaps the most important improvement of all State roads is the reduction of grade, preventing to a considerable extent the wash of storm water, and making it possible to haul larger loads with the same number of horses. In this town in 1895, there was excavated 2,063 cubic yards, and in 1896, 2,132 cubic yards, about 13 per cent, of the total cost of the road, the reduction of grade being a permanent pub- lic benefit as long as the road lasts without further cost to the State. The amount of broken stone used in 1895 was 3,101 tons (8,820 square yards) ; in 1896, 2,490 tons,

(7,357 square yards), the total cost of the Lincoln road as shown by the Town Report, being considerably less per mile than the average of other State roads. The U. S. Depart- ment of road enquiry in some recent experiments found that on ordinary roads in their best condition when smooth and dry, that the draft was about two and one-fourth times as much as on a macadam road. The cost of excavation and broken stone to the State on the Lincoln road will be about 75 per cent of the total cost.


The Town is to keep at its own expense, the State road clear of snow and ice, and is liable for injuries to persons travelling upon its State highway, the same as upon other highways, but the amount actually recovered shall be repaid to the Town within one year by the Commonwealth. Any temporary necessary repairs may be made by the Town without the approval of the Highway Commission. Prompt attention to these provisions may prevent any question of liability between the Town and the State, as it is desirable that the Town shall pay no more costs for unnecessary law suits.
