REPORT OF SELECTMEN ON J. H. HAVERSTOCK CASE.

COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC PLAYGROUND.
The committee to whom was referred the matter of pub- lic playground would report :
While they feel the object is a good one there seems to be little interest manifest by the citizens. Considering the comparatively small number of youths, and those scattered over a large area, together with the expense that would be required to purchase and equip a piece of suitable size cen- trally located, we do not believe it is desirable for the Town to take any action.

BOARD OF HEALTH REPORT.
Duxbury, Mass., Jan. 1, 1906.
To the Citizens of the Town of Duxbury :
Your Board of Health herewith submit their report for 1905.
During the year the Town has been comparatively free from infectious disease, the attention of the Board having been called to only two or three cases. One case of typhoid fever we have reason to believe was contracted outside of the Town. The cases of diphtheria were evidently caused by the unsanitary condition of the surroundings and we call the attention of the residents of the outlying disricts to the necessity of using more care in the disposal of their sewage and the location of their water closets and drains.
Your particular attention is also called to the following amended sections of the Public Statutes :
Section 49. A householder who knows that a person in his family or house is sick of smallpox. diphtheria, scarlet fever or any other infectious or contagious disease danger- ous to the public health shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Board of Health of the City or Town in which he dwells. Upon the death, recovery or removal of such per-
-52-
son, the householder shall disinfect to the satisfaction of the Board such rooms of his house and articles therein as, in the opinion of the Board, have been exposed to infection or contagion. Should one or both eyes of an infant become in- flamed, swollen and red, and show an unnatural discharge at any time within two weeks after its birth, it shall be the duty of the nurse, relative or other attendant having charge of such infant to report in writing within six hours there- after, to the Board of Health of the City or Town in which the parents of the infant reside, the fact that such inflam- mation, swelling and redness of the eyes and unnatural dis- charge exist. On receipt of such report, or of notice of the same symptoms given by a physician as provided by the fol- lowing section, the Board of Health shall take such imme- diate action as it may deem necessary in order that blindness may be prevented. Whoever violates the provisions of this section shall be punished by a fine of not more than one hundred dollars.
Section 50. If a physician knows that a person whom he is called to visit is infected with smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet fever or any other disease dangerous to the public health, or if one or both eyes of an infant whom or whose mother he is called to visit become inflamed, swollen and red, and show an unnatural discharge within two weeks after the birth of such infant, he shall immediately give notice thereof in writing over his own signature to the Selectmen or Board of Health of the Town; and if he re- fuses or neglects to give such notice, he shall forfeit not less than fifty nor more than two hundred dollars for each offence.
Your Board acting upon a complaint in regard to the disposal of sewage from Powder Point requested an opinion from the State Board, which is herewith submitted :
Office of the State Board of Health,
June 1. 1905.
To the Board of Health of the Town of Duxbury.
Gentlemen : The State Board of Health has considered your request for advice as to the disposal of the sewage from Powder Point and has caused the locality of the pres- ent sewer outlet and the general condition of the bay in this
-53-
region, and the requirements of the village at Powder Point in the matter of sewage disposal, to be examined.
It appears that the present sewer from the buildings of the Powder Point School, which are used in the summer as a hotel and usually contain from 75 to 100 people, dis- charges into a small channel in Duxbury Bay about 300 feet from the main channel in the bay south of Powder Point; but as the sewer leaks badly, sewage escapes upon the flats at many places along its course. Much of the sewage is also allowed to discharge at all times, causing the pollution of the flats in the neighborhood of the outlet, and under present conditions this outlet is an objectionable one.
The soil in Powder Point is very fine and nearly imper- vious to water, so that the disposal of sewage by means of · cesspools is difficult and it is impracticable to discharge the sewage upon any land suitable for its purification by filtra- tion without pumping. Under the circumstances the least expensive method of disposing of the sewage would be to discharge it into Duxbury Bay. There is no doubt that the sewage of the present village of Duxbury, including Powder Point, could be disposed of by discharging it into one of the channels in Duxbury Bay without causing a nui- sance or offensive conditions about the sewer outlet or upon the flats of the bay, provided that the sewage were dis- charged only at the most favorable places and on the latter portion of the outgoing tide ; but in the past large numbers of shellfish have been taken from Duxbury Bay and it is understood that oysters have been grown here up to the present time, and if sewage is to be discharged into the bay it must be so discharged that it will not affect any waters or areas of flats from which shellfish are taken.
Considering the circumstances, it is advisable, in the opinion of the Board, that an investigation be made to de- termine the best outlet for the sewer now discharging at Powder Point with a view to providing for the disposal of the sewage of other places in and about the village, and that for this purpose the various channels in the harbor be ex- amined, the areas from which shellfish are taken located, and such other information obtained as will make it practi- cable to select the least objectionable point of discharge. It would be well, also, to consider the feasibility and proba-
-54-
ble cost of disposing of the sewage upon land in case an un- objectionable sea outlet cannot be found.
Any information collected by the engineer of the Board in the course of the examination of the conditions at Dux- bury is available to you in making further investigations.
By order of the Board,
CHARLES HUNTINGTON, Secretary.
Upon receiving this opinion your Board requested Mr. Knapp to carry his sewer to the "Blue Fish River" channel, where the water is deep and the current swift. Mr. Knapp cheerfully carried out instructions and co-operated with the Board in every way to remedy what had been complained of as a nuisance. But after this work had been completed summer residents at Powder Point still complained that the sewer was a menace to public health and your Board in- spected the sewer when it was being discharged. In justice to Mr. Knapp, whose interests are greater than anyone else at Powder Point, and to allay any apprehension that might exist in the minds of those who make Duxbury their sum- mer home, your Board will state that a most careful inspec- tion satisfied them that there was no possible cause for com- plaint, and they will state now for public information that the sewage discharged into the bay from the Powder Point House is not raw sewage.
Your Board, having satisfied themselves on these points, notified Mr. Knapp that for the present his system was ap- proved.
Your Board view with alarm the disposition of persons who call upon the Town for the payment of their medical expenses to employ whom they please. This practice is fraught with danger and should be discontinued. In future it is hoped in such cases that only Town physicians shall be employed, as this Board cannot approve bills otherwise.

Board of Health.

REPORT OF ROAD SURVEYOR.
The $800 voted for special repairs at High Street has been expended, with a small addition, commencing at Pem- broke line, extending to Four-Mile Hill, so called, using mostly gravel. In order to get a good gravel a portion of it had to be carted a long distance. I found the Stone Bridge in very poor condition, and replaced it with 24-inch drain tile. thinking it less liable to accident.
The $100 appropriated for repairs on Laurel Street was expended in grading hill and using the material for widen- ing and hardening other portions.
The amount voted for Stone Road has been expended for grading and stoning; commencing at railroad crossing on St. George Street, continuing about 800 feet to where it had been previously stoned; and on Powder Point Avenue, from near the cable office about 1,500 feet, a portion of the road being raised about one foot to bring it above high tides. I have had the bank graded on the west side and a railing placed on the east side of the road connecting Powder Point Avenue with the new road near Gurnet Bridge.
There has been expended about $200 for filling and cementing stone work on Blue River Bridge. The bottom of the water course is double planked; the upper course is very much worn, some of the planks are gone, therefore new planking is necessary in the near future.
The highway account will show that all of the amount appropriated for 1905 was not expended, as some of the bills were not presented before the books were closed. The amount of outstanding bills will about equal the balance.

REPORT OF THE DUXBURY RURAL SOCIETY.
I am glad to report an increase in membership and re- newed interest in the work of the Rural Society. The non- residents are very willing to help, as a fine concert last Au- gust testified, but the Society still lacks the support of the townspeople. Stronger public sentiment and civic pride is much needed, if we are to compare favorably with the neigh- boring towns. It may not be generally known that the wa- tering troughs are kept in order, and the water paid for by
the Society ; also the flower beds at the library. The So- ciety hopes to put a watering trough at West Duxbury in the spring, but finances will not permit assuming the water rate, possibly the town might pay for the water. Some brown tail and gypsy moths have apeared here. A special com- mittee was appointed by the Rural Society to do all in its power to aid the selectmen and the warden in their work of destroying nests.
