An approrriation for this purpose will be asked for, and the board believes it would prove a decided advantage.


We would again call your attention to the lockup in the base-

ment of the Town House. On account of sanitary and other reasons it should be situated above ground. As there seems to be no avail- abie room in the building at present, by removing a portion or the whole of the shed in the rear, a suitable building could be erect- ed for a small sum. The board urges that a committee be appoint- ed to investigate and report some plan at the adjourned Town meeting.


Last year a portion of the appropriation for the Fire Dept. was for the purpose of repairs to the piers in basement of the Central Fire Station, but investigation showed that the sum was insufficient, and it was decided that the repairs needed were of such a nature that it would be better to wait and ask for a sum large enough to complete the work once begun, rather than to do it in parts. The Engineers have included in their estimate this year, a sum suffic- ient, we think, to do the work properly.


A few years ago the matter of "filling in" the cove between the lower wharf on East street and Agawam avenue was brought before the Town. A committee was appointed and a report made, but no further action was taken. The matter has again come be- fore the board, and will be presented to the citizens for their con- sideration at the annual meeting. Permission for this work can be obtained from the Harbor and Land Commission.


If a retaining wall were built and the space gradually filled in with waste material, a piece of land suitable for a park and other purposes would develop.


In behalf of the Town we wish to thank the members of the Ipswich Grange for the rubbish barrels furnished by them, and which have done such good service in keeping our business centre in a more tidy condition.


We desire to extend our thanks to the various town officials and citizens who have cooperated with us in carrying on the work of the Town during the closing year.


Respectfully submitted,


CHARLES E. GOODHUE, Selectmen CHARLES G. HULL. of FRANK W. KYES, Ipswich.
