This is to certify that I have made monthly audits of the books and accounts of the Town Treasurer and Collector, approving all bills before they were paid. I have also examined the General Bal- ance Sheets of Receipts and Expenditures and compared them with the various books, and I certify that the same are in conformity therewith. I find the cash balance in the hands of the Treasurer, Jan. 22, 1906, to be $872.96. JAMES DAMON, Auditor.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT.


Last year, we called attention to the fact that the Treasuer could not pay some of the tax notes, owing to the fact that some of our citizens could not, or did not pay their taxes promptly. Those tax notes have now been paid, but the same condition exists in re- gard to this year's tax notes. These notes are issued in anticipation of the taxes, and unless the taxes are paid the notes must remain unpaid at the close of the year, and for a few months in the suc- ceeding year. We have paid off $2400 00 of the standing notes of the Town this year making that much reduction in the indebtedness of the Town,


The financial condition of the Town Jan. 1, 1906, was as follows:


Cash on hand Jan. 1, 1906 $ 872 96


Bills due town Jan. 1, 1906. 16136 06


Total


$17009 02


Less undrawn orders $ 1138 56


Less tax notes due 12000 00


$13138 56


Balance in favor of Town $3870 46


While the highway department is not in charge of the Select- men, we feel that in view of the fact that the material found in most of the gravel pits in the centre of the Town is unfit to put on our roads, especially those roads over which there is a large amount of travel with heavy teams, it may not be out of place for us to suggest to the Town that the time has come for the purchase of a road roller, and for the use of broken stone on many of our high- ways. As the Town has not been compelled to expend much for snow this year, it would seem that it might be a good opportunity to use the money saved, for the purchase of a steam roller. It would seem also, that it might be well for the Town to appoint a committee to ascertain if a suitable ledge can be found from which stone could be secured for crushing, and if so, it would be well to purchase a stone crusher also. In our last report we called atten- tion to the fact that although the Town has authorized the Select- men to purchase a watering cart, no definite motion had been pass- ed fixing the proportion of cost for sprinkling to be paid by the abuttors on each side of the streets sprinkled, but the Town neglect-


67


IPSWICH TOWN REPORT.


ed to fix the proportion and we have not sent out bills for that rea- son. The Town should take action at the coming meeting, fixing the rate.


An appropriation was made at the annual meeting for the pur- pose of planting shell fish, but it was found that large areas of flats had been seeded in by nature, and at a meeting of the clammers, called by the Selectmen, it was decided that it was not necessary to expend the money last year.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT.


REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH.


FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1906.


The Board of Health submits herewith the following report.


Whole number of contagious and infectious diseases reported, 63; classified as follows :-


Diphtheria. 7 cases


Erysipelas


1 case


Measles 1 case


Scarlet Fever


13 cases


Typhoid Fever 41 cases


There was one death from Typhoid Fever.


Eleven cases of Typhoid were sent to the Salem Hospital.


All other cases were cared for at their homes. In addition to the hos- pital cases, aid either medical or otherwise, was furnished in nine cases, making in all twenty cases, or about 30 per cent. of the num- ber reported, in which aid of some sort was furnished.


In view of the prevalence of Typhoid Fever during the year, it may be of interest to give the statistics for the past 10 years, which are as follows :--


1896, 24 cases 1897,


6 cases


1898, 15 cases . 1899,


3 cases


1900, 16 cases 1901, 18 cases


1902, 11 cases


1903, 23 cases


1904, 19 cases


1805, 41 cases


This makes 176 cases reported the past decade. An average of 17.6 cases per year during that time. Without entering into details

as to how Typhoid infection may be propagated, the Board would caution all property owners and householders to keep their premises in first class sanitary condition. All cesspools and vaults should be emptied and cleansed at frequent intervals, and all sinks and drains should be properly trapped and ventilated.


Milkmen, or those having the care or handling of milk, should take extra care that they have a pure water supply, and that their milk utensils are properly sterilized, and that the premises where milk is handled, be absolutely clean. Milk infection is one of the most common ways of spreading Typhoid Fever; and care on the part of the public will do much to prevent its spread whenever it threatens to become epidemic.


Few complaints of nusiances have come to the attention of the Board; and such as have, have been promptly abated. The agent of the Board has kept a sharp eye on general sanitary conditions, which are as satisfactory, all things considered, as can be expected.

TOWN CLERK'S REPORT.


To the Selectmen of Ipswich, Gentlemen:


In submitting my report for the year 1905 I am pleased to know that I can say substantial progress has been made in the preserva- tion of the Ancient Records of the Town. In consultation with the committee appointed in 1904 and reappointed in 1905, it was thought best that the earliest records should be at once put in such condition that they will be preserved in a proper manner. I at once communicated with the Emery Company of Taunton, Mass., and, after a call from a representative of the company, the first books of records, three volumes, were forwarded to the company, and are now in my care completely bound and in such condition that they should last for generations. Many more volumes require treat- ment, and I shall attend to them during the coming year and as many as possible will be rebound and prepared for use. I have exceeded the appropriation for the work, but as the need of preser- vation of the books was beginning to be a serious matter I thought best to do the work required at once, and knowing that the laws of the commonwealth were imperative in their requirements for the protection of the records I felt that duty as well as desire urged compliance.


With the increasing number of books and papers relating to Town affairs which must be preserved, comes a demand for more room, and that should be fire proof. Sec. 5, Chap. 35, Revised Laws. "In construing the provisions of this chapter and other statutes, the words public records shall, unless a contrary intention clearly appears, mean any written or printed book or paper, any map or plan of the commonwealth or of any city or town, which is the


D

property theroef and in or on which an entry has been made or is required to be made by law, or which any officer or employee of the commonwealth or of a city or town has received or is required to receive for filing, and any book, paper, record or copy mentioned in the six following sections. The word record shall in this chapter mean any written or printed book, paper, map, or plan". Then follows a statement of the character of the documents to be kept as well as books of record, defining the quality of paper to be used, the ink, and ribbon to be used on typewriter. All these books, papers and documents must be preserved in fireproof rooms, safes, or vaults. Sec. 18 of Chap. 35 requires the authorities of the commonwealth, counties, cities and towns to provide fire proof rooms, safes, or vaults for the care and protection of the above mentioned books, papers, &c. I would call your attention to this matter, because in the near future more safe room must be pro- vided.


VITAL STATISTICS.


The whole number of births recorded in this office for the year 1905 was 102. 101 children were born in Ipswich and one return was received from the city of Northampton, Mass.

Property damaged by fire


$2269 00


Insurance on the same


$6800 00

Value of fire department equipment $7500 00


Value of buildings occupied by department $2000 00


Value of fire alarm equipments $1700 00


Number of feet of good hose 5000


We recommend a Central Fire Station.


We recommend that $2300 be raised and appropriated to run the Fire Department for the ensuing year.


In looking over the department buildings the Engineers find that there should be something done this year. The house at War- ren street is in bad shape for the steamer and hose wagon, and the Town Hall is not suitable for the Hook and Ladder Co., as the truck must be taken out by hand before the horses can be hitched on and this causes delay.

I desire to call your attention to the fact that since the month of May last, there does not appear in the report submitted to you, any care of tramps at your police station. Commencing with the month of June, tramps applying for aid were told that assistance would be furnished to them, but were also told that they would be brought before the court in the morning on the charge of vagran- cy; that if it was then shown that they were traveling about from place to place, having no employment, and seeking none, they must take their chances of being sentenced as a vagrant. Only in rare instances did any of them applying for aid wish their past record inquired into, and there was only one instance where an examina- tion of their records warranted any assistance being rendered, and this was where an old soldier, who had just lost his employment and chance of earning a livelihood, and at the time he asked for aid was looking for employment. In this case he was given a lodging and breakfast at the Franklin House. These "traveling gentle- men" now taboo Ipswich, so that now it is a rare thing to have any application made to us, by them, for any assistance.


I desire to thank the Board of Selectmen for their readiness and willingness to support the Police Department of the town dur- ing the past year. I would say that every member of the force have, at all times, been at your command, and have, without a dis-


K

senting murmur or any reluctant feeling, aided me in carrying out each and every order issued from your department. And I would commend them for their zeal shown in the discharge of their duties and for their desire in seeing that at all times harmony should pre- vail among the members of the Police Department of Ipswich.


Respectfully submitted, Albert S. Garland.
