Town Clerk's Report.
TO THE SELECTMEN OF THE TOWN OF ANDOVER :
Gentlemen, - I present to you my Report for the Year 1883.
I again call the attention of the townspeople to the many nameless spaces in the Birth records of previous years. A list of then may be seen in the Post-office.
The name is the vital point in the record of a birth. Private records may be lost or destroyed ; in such case the public records must be the only reliance for the decision of important questions. The Clerk receives many letters of inquiry concerning. Births, Marriages, and Deaths, and to enable him to give satisfactory replies the records must be complete.
The vital statistics of the year are as follows :
