Adams Street work held up for hearing before County Commissioners. Work to commence early this year.
Franklin Street work held for abutters' release for land damages, which is to be given to the Town, before the work on sidewalks can begin, according to the way the money was appropriated at the Town Meeting in March, 1921.
Appropriation for sidewalks of $1,400,00 for each precinct will begin as soon as the frost is out of the ground. Owing to the labor shortage last year, the work could not be done.
MAINTENANCE.
Maintenance consists principally of patching the seal coating of the water-bound Macadam, gravel and dirt roads. This work needs considerable attention in the spring of the year after the frost and ice has left the ground -- more so after the snow and rain storms such as we had last winter, the travel over the main highways in the spring of the year, caused considerable damage owing to the heavy loads the trucks carry.
Drainage.
The drainage work for 1923 was as follows:
Wyman Road and Shaw Avenue to R. R. tracks - a distance of 1,000 feet. Liberty and Lisle Streets, a distance of 500 feet. Sampson Avenue - a distance of 200 feet.

APPARATUS.
The Apparatus and equipment in the Department is- in first-class condition. The new Hook & Ladder Truck that the Town voted to purchase in March was delivered to the Town by the Ahrens-Fox Fire Engine Company,. December 3rd. Underwriters' test December 6th, accepted by the Committee and went in service December 10th.
FIRE STATIONS.
I wish at this time to call the attention of the citizens to the housing problem which is confronting the department The Town has recently purchased two splendid pieces of Fire Apparatus, an Ahrens-Fox Pumping Engine and an Ahrens-Fox Hook and Ladder. I feel that this is an invest- ment which should be properly housed and taken care of. Therefore, with this end in view and to relieve the conges- tion now existing at the South Braintree Engine House, I would recommend the consideration of a new building that will offer permanent relief to this situation.

REPORT OF THE WATER COMMISSIONERS
Conforming to the requirements of Sec. 2 of Art. 2 of the Town By-Laws, The Board of Water Commissioners submit herewith the Annual report of the Dept. to Dec. 31, 1923.
HONORABLE JAMES T. STEVENS
Your Board takes this opportunity to mention the passing of James T. Stevens, familiarly known amongst a wide circle of acquaintances as Captain Stevens, who passed on March 16, 1923 and who served on this Board continuously and acting as its Chairman since its formation in 1889.
Mustered out of the Union Army, with an honorable record, he returned to Braintree, his native town, to remain during the remainder of his life engaging energetically in business as a manufacturer and entering into the various religious, social, and political activities to the extent of his ability.
Those who were fortunate in knowing him, and they are many, could not be otherwise than impressed by his cheerful disposition, despite a physical handicap, his rugged honesty and his unlimited interest and consideration for the welfare of this town while a citizen and while acting as a servant. We may ask ourselves, what more could he have done.
At a joint meeting of the Selectmen and Water Com- missioners held April 23, 1923, Mr. Charles B. Cummings was elected to succeed the late Capt. Stevens and the Water Board organized with Mr. Wm. C. Harrison as Chairman.
The year has been a busy one and many needed im- provements have been made both to the machinery and to the pipe lines.
198
NEW PUMPING EQUIPMENT REPAIRS AND RENEWALS
During the year the installation of the motor driven. centrifugal pump and the chlorinating apparatus at Little Pond, contracted for during the year 1922, has been com -. pleted, tested and accepted, the total cost bring $3877.80, a portion of which appears in our 1922 report.
At the Great Pond Station the large pump has been thoroughly overhauled and certain parts repaired or re- placed, the work being done by the Murray Engineering Company, who also furnished and erected a new smoke- stack, replacing the original stack which practically collapsed due to continuous use and unfitness, all at a cost of $2987.39.
Additional installations at the Great Pond Station consist of a chlorinating apparatus, furnished by the Wallace & Tiernan Company at a cost of $1400.00 - and a new air pump furnished by F. A. Mazzur & Company at a cost of" $560.
Under Art. 53 of the 1923 Warrant the sum of $1700. was appropriated to replace the 112" line on Standish Avenue with a 6" main and the work has been completed at a total cost of $1722.92. $1138.57 balance of 1926 Sinking Fund and balance from Revenue of the Department.
Under Art. 54 of same Warrant it was voted to appro- priate from revenue of Dept. $4907.18 to complete the 12" main on Tremont Street. This extension has been made at a cost to the Department of $5831.75.
The estimate of this work was found to be much to- low owing to an error in number of feet and extremely hard: soil.
199
Under Art. 56 the sum of $4478.10 was appropriated to complete the 6" main on Plain Street from Grove Street to dead end at Nelson's farm. Owing to urgent call for work in other directions, the work has not been taken up and we ask a reappropriation of the same amount to complete the extension this year.
Other extensions of short distances on accepted streets where buildings were under construction have been made during the year details of which may be found in the report of the Superintendent which together with the Registrar and Collector follow.
