The auditors, in taking the valuation of the Town Farm, have the pleasure to state to the citizens of the town, that we have found evi- dence of good management in each department; that the superin- tendent and matron have faithfully discharged the duties intrusted to them, and deserve the grateful recognition of the same. The inmates appear contented and happy. Abundance of provisions, the product of the farm, appears on the premises.
