Sect. 3. Physicians and midwives shall on or before the fifth day of each month, report to the Clerk of each City or Town a correct list of all children born therein during the preceding month at whose birth they were present, stating the date and place of each birth, the name, if any, of the child, its sex and color, and the name, place of birth and residence of the parents, the maiden name of the mother, and the occupation of the father. A physician or midwife who neglects to report such list on or before the fifteenth day of the month shall for each offence forfeit not more than twenty-five dollars.
Sect. 6. Parents, within forty days after the birth of a child, and every householder, within forty days after the birth of a child in his house, shall cause notice thereof to be given to the clerk of the City or Town, in which such child is born.
Sect. 8. A parent, keeper, superintendent or other person who is required by Section 6 to give or cause to be given notice of a birth or death, who neglects so to do for ten days after the time limited therefor, shall forfeit not more than five dollars for such offence.
DOGS LICENSED IN 1912.
There have been 125 licenses issued as follows :- 103 Males, 17 Females, 4 Spayed Females, 1 Kennel, for which $324.00 has been paid to the County Treasurer.
The attention of citizens is called to the law which states that dogs must be licensed on or before April 1 in each year.
When the first return was made to the County Treas- urer on June 10, 1912, only 42 licenses had been issued and some licenses were not issued in turn for the return to be made as required on Dec. 10, 1912.

Finances
The Town now has a bonded debt on account of its Water Department of $85,000.00, as follows :-
Issue of 1894, $2,000 00, due one each year.
Issue of 1897, 10,000 00, 4 % bonds, due 1917.
Issue of 1900, 23,000 00, 32% bonds, due 1930.
Issue of 1902, 9,000 00, 32% bonds, due 1932.
Issue of 1903, 5,000 00, 4 % bonds, due 1933.
Issue of 1904, 5,000 00, 4 % bonds, due 1934.
Issue of 1906, 14,000 00, 4 % bonds, due 1936.
Issue of 1907, 4,000 00, 4 % bonds, due 1937.
Issue of 1911, 5,500 00, 4 % serial 1912 to 1924.
Fifteen $500.00 bonds, $7,500.00, one each year. Total bonded indebtedness, $85,000.00.
From this total indebtedness should be deducted the amount of money now in the Sinking Fund, to retire issues of 1897, 1900, 1902, 1903, 1904, 1906, and 1907, at maturity.
There has also been paid from the Town Treasury on account of the water works during the past two years $5,987.51, which should now be funded, and the cash, with accrued interest, paid into the Town Treasury, to reimburse the treasury for its expenditure for water works extensions.
The total bond issue on account of the new schoolhouse was $55,000, of which $15,000.00 has been retired, leaving bonded indebtedness on this account, January 1, 1913, of $40,000.00.
It will be necessary for the Town to appropriate. $3,000.00 to retire bonds this year, also to appropriate $1,600.00 on account of interest on the $40,000.00 out- standing bonds.
57
There is, however, a sinking fund of $3,000.00 provided by the appropriation of 1911, which makes the net in- debtedness on account of the new schoolhouse $37,000.00.
The Town Treasurer's report shows that he has in the treasury $1,815.60, and that there are uncollected taxes amounting to $2,971.17, making total available money on this account in the treasury $4,786.77.
This amount, together with $5,987.51, due the Town treasury from the Water Works, and $1,650.00, the amount to be received from the County on the comple- tion of Lee's Bridge, makes a total available money in the treasury, of $12,424.28.
Support of Poor
The Auditor's Report shows that $340.65 has been paid during the year for the assistance of various people.
Fire Department
This department has been conducted during the year as heretofore. For a more detailed report, reference is made to the report of the Fire Engineer.
Tree Warden
The report of the Tree Warden gives a full account of the work that has been done, with the results obtained, and recommendations for the future. As far as we have been able to observe, the department has been conducted in a creditable manner.
Silent Poor Fund
The Board has not received any application for aid from this Fund during the year. The Fund is as re- ported by the Treasurer of the Trust Committee.
58
Highways
Mr. John F. Farrar, who had served the Town for several years as Superintendent of Streets, was re-ap- pointed by the Selectmen at the beginning of the past year, but resigned his position early in May, when Mr. William H. Sherman was appointed Superintendent, who has conducted that department during the last eight months.
For a more detailed report of the work of this depart- ment, both as to the expenditure of money and where the same has been expended, we refer you to the report of the Superintendent of Streets.
It will be noticed that the Selectmen have recommend- ed the appropriation of more money for the two principal accounts for which money is appropriated; namely, Schools, and Highways and Bridges. The first recom- mendation for an increase of appropriation is made at the request of the School Committee, who, for various reasons, feel that they must, in order to continue the high character of the schools, have a small amount of additional money.
In the case of the Highways, during the last two years more money has been expended than was appropriated, and during the last year considerable more, although the net expenditure on account of highways is not as large as would appear from the Auditor's Report there being a credit in the Town Treasurer's Report of $1,285.48, which will make the net amount expended for highways $9,536.68 for the year, exclusive of the special money expended on the approach to Lee's Bridge.
It is the ordinary experience of cities and towns that their expenditure on account of repairs of highways is constantly increased, due primarily to the larger amount of traffic going over the roads, as well as the increased
59
use of automobiles. Quite a portion of the money ap- propriated also has to be expended for material, not only for construction, such as crushed stone and gravel, but for a dust suppressor, such as oil or taria; also, when the season is such as the past season has been, when the Town teams and men can be profitably employed during most of the winter, the expenditure of money will nec- essarily be larger than in a season when snow covers the ground for practically the entire winter. It has seemed, therefore, taking everything into consideration, best to the Selectmen to recommend the appropriation as above, namely, $10,000.00, although neither of the men who have served as Superintendent of Streets during the past year have made any such request or recommenda- tion.
Lee's Bridge
During the year Lee's Bridge has been practically completed, Mr. Adams having executed the contract for its completion, with the understanding that the Town would pay such proportion of the cost as they would have paid had an ordinary commercial bridge been erected. This amount, as determined by the Town's Engineer and the Engineer of the County Commissioners, was $5,500.00, and this amount has already been paid to Mr. Adams. The Town will receive from the County, as reimbursement on account of this expenditure, $1,650.00, in due time.
The approach to the bridge from the Lincoln side has been graded and put in good condition for travel, except the railing along the sides of the approach. It has not yet been definitely determined whether to use ordinary Massachusetts highway railing or pipe. However, per- manent construction will be completed early in the spring.
60
The matter of repairs for Lee's Bridge, which has been a matter for constant attention in all previous years will now be a thing of the past, as the present structure should stand without repairs for an indefinite period.
The recent correspondence with Mr. Adams and the County Commissioners is printed herewith.
We think the Town should choose a Committee to con- fer with Mr. Adams, so that when the bridge is finally completed, arrangements can be made for dedication of the same, or such other observance as the Committee and Mr. Adams shall decide.
CHARLES S. SMITH, ROBERT D. DONALDSON, Selectmen of Lincoln.
61
The important correspondence respecting the matter as far as Mr. Adams and the County Commissioners is concerned, is as follows :-
South Lincoln, Mass., Dec. 3, 1912.
My dear Mr. Smith :
When we last met, you were talking about Lee's Bridge and your desire to get the matter settled up in this year's Town accounts. I entirely agree with you on that point. The sooner the thing is disposed of and so put out of the way, the better.
It occurs to me that there is no reason for further delay. It could be settled now as well as at any other time. I have been meeting all the payments approved by Mr. Codman, the architect of the Bridge, until about three- quarters of the entire cost has been paid. The exact figures I have at my office, and could give you.
My suggestion is that, so far as the two Towns are concerned, the matter should be closed out at once and before the end of the year. They could then pay me whatever is to be the contribution of the two Towns towards the cost of the structure, and I would then meet all further payments. In any event, the contract of the company is with me, and I am responsible to it.
There would seem to be no reason whatever, therefore, why the two Towns should not settle for the Bridge, and I will then be liable for its completion.
I shall leave for Washington tomorrow, Wednesday, afternoon. I may and not improbably will, be back here next Saturday, the 7th. I shall be at my office to- morrow, the 4th; if convenient, I could then see you and reach an understanding.
I remain, etc., CHARLES F. ADAMS.
Charles S. Smith, Esq.,
Lincoln, Mass.

Dec. 31, 1912.
My dear Mr. Adams:
I take the first opportunity which has presented itself to reply to yours of December 3rd.
I left for the West on Nov. 29th, and since my return, a week ago, have been extremely busy with other matters.
I have looked up the division of expense, which was apportioned by Mr. Worcester and Mr. Kendall, Engi- neer for the County Commissioners last year, and I quote as follows:
"On the whole we report that Concord may fairly be asked to pay $1,500.00 toward the cost of the new structure and Lincoln $5,500.00,"
which is the only matter of particular interest in their report as affecting the amounts to be paid to you by the two Towns.
If agreeable to you, we will draw an order at our next meeting, so that the Town Treasurer will pay to you $5,500.00, and I will take this matter up with the au- thorities of the Town of Concord, or allow you to do the same direct, which ever you prefer.
On the completion of the bridge to the satisfaction of the County Commissioners I understand that they will pay to the Town of Lincoln part of this expense. I have not in mind just the amount, but I think somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,500.00.
If the disposition of the matter as above is in accord- ance with your views will you kindly let me know?
Very truly yours,
CHARLES S. SMITH,
Chairman.
Hon. Charles Francis Adams, 84 State Street,
Boston, Mass.

1701 Massachusetts Ave., Washington, D. C., Jan. 4, 1913.
My dear Mr. Smith:
Yours of December 31st has been forwarded to me here.
I was at Lincoln Monday last, the 30th ultimo,-the day before you wrote me-and subsequently at my Bos- ton office. I was not then aware that you had got back from your trip to the Old Dominion property.
However, it would have made no difference. I went out to Lee's Bridge with Mr. Codman and my son, Harry, in the midst of a drenching rain, and with the mud and slush fairly in evidence, I made a tolerably careful examination.
Much of the work is quite satisfactory to me. Some of it,-especially at the two ends, and where the bridge work is connected with the Town work,-is the reverse of satisfactory. I think that Mr. Codman's design for the connection was unsatisfactory. I so told him, and gave directions to have the connecting bits put in per- manent shape. This, however, will not be done until Spring, as in the Winter is no time in which to use cement. It will involve, also, additional cost, of which he is to furnish me an estimate. I wish to make a creditable and permanent piece of work, and not to turn over to the Town, so far as the bridge is concerned, something which will stand in need on incessant repairs.
As you know, in this matter I have not been disposed to bargain, much less to haggle, over the amount which the Towns will contribute. I regard the bridge as ul- timately a permanent memorial to Mrs. Adams and myself. As such, it has been my purpose to complete it in a form in which it will stand. I, therefore, am quite content to leave the matter of adjustment of proportion of cost, so far as the Towns and county are concerned, in the hands of their representatives. I should be quite content with such a settlement as that indicated in your letter.
64
Meanwhile, on the other hand, I wish the Towns and County to understand that whatever settlement is effected, the first cost of the bridge, in the course of the year now entered upon turned over to the Towns in its ultimate form, is something for which I hold myself responsible.
You may, therefore, arrange the settlement, so far as the contributary amount to be paid by the Towns is concerned, at such time as will suit you convenience and the convenience of the Town Treasurer. You can pay over to me the amount in question, if you see fit, during the current month, so that the matter will be cleaned up, so far as the Town records are concerned. I will then agree to be responsible for the final payments under the contract, and, moreover, for such additional work as may be necessary to put the bridge in thoroughly satis- factory permanent shape.
Hoping that the above will meet your views and the views of the representatives of Concord and the County, I remain, etc.,
(Sd. ) CHARLES F. ADAMS.
Charles S. Smith, Esq.,
Chairman of the Board of Selectmen, Lincoln, Mass.
East Cambridge, Jan. 10, 1913.
Chas. S. Smith, Esq.,
Chairman of Selectmen, Lincoln, Mass.
Dear Sir :- We have your communication of the 6th inst., relative to Lee's Bridge and the same shall have our consideration. We note that Mr. Adams has already arranged for changes at the two ends where the bridge
65
work is connected with the Town work and presume so far as that is concerned, Mr. Adams will bear any addi- tional expense.
We felt that arrangements with regard to the payment of the expense between the Towns and the County had been settled, and we have made a record of our under- standing to pay the Town of Lincoln $1,650.00, and the Town of Concord $850.00. As you suggest, it may be well to have the Engineer examine the work.
Yours very truly, LEVI S. GOULD, Chairman.
