The records of departmental cash collections by the sealer of weights and measures and inspector of buildings, as well as by the fire, health, sewer, school, library, cemetery, and all other departments in which money was collected for the town, were examined and checked.
The records of water charges were examined and checked. The recorded collections were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements were verified, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved with the several ledger accounts.
The securities and saving bank books representing the invest- ments of the Punchard Free School, Memorial Hall Library, and John Cornell Wood and Coal Funds in custody of the several trustees were examined and listed. The income and other receipts were verified, the disbursements were proved, and the cash bal- ances were verified with statements furnished by the banks.
The surety bonds furnished by the several town officials re- quired by law to furnish such surety were examined and found to be in proper form.

Appended to this report, in addition to the balance sheet, are tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's cash, sum- maries of the tax, assessment, tax title, departmental, and water accounts, as well as tables showing the condition and transactions of the various trust funds.
For the cooperation and assistance rendered by all the town officials during the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted, HERMAN B. DINE, Assistant Director of Accounts
