The Treasurer begs to refer to a certain order for $2500, drawn on him by the Municipal Light Board of which mention was made on report of December 31, 1911.
Nothing has been done with this order for various reasons.
The Treasurer has no authority to pay the same, even if he had the funds, because it is drawn against the unexpended balance of
142
an appropriation raised from taxation, and not from revenue of the plant. The disbursement of appropriations rests with the Select- men.
As to funds, there has been no time during 1912 when this amount could be taken from the Treasury without interfering with other payments which seemed imperative.
As a matter of fact the free balance in the Treasury shown in this report as December 31, 1912, came from the Collector in the carly days of January.
Finally there can be no payment of the Stetson Note so called under the terms of the Deed of trust, and the vote of the Town ac- cepting the same without some proper legislation acceptable to the heirs at law of Mr. Stetson.
