AUDITOR'S REPORT.
The undersigned, chosen at the last annual town meet- ing to audit the accounts of the town of Ipswich for the fis- cal year ending February 1, 1891, having attended to that duty begs leave to report, that he finds the accounts here- with submitted to the inhabitants of the town to be correct, and all drafts upon the treasury properly vouched.
He takes this occasion to extend thanks to the clerk of the board of selectmen, Mr. N. R. Farley, and also to the treasurer of the town, Mr. J. Sargent, for courtesies shown while in pursuance of his labor, which not only helped to ex- pedite his work, but to make the task less onerous, and less irksome, than it would otherwise have been.
