CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE.


Chemical examination of the water fails to throw any light on the matter, or to show any reason why the water should not be perfectly suitable for use. Microscopic examination, how- ever, leads us to what I believe to be the cause of the trouble The water in the pond, or as drawn in the Town, was found to contain a considerable number of green specks, which, when sufficiently magnified, were seen to be vegetable organisms- plants which the botanists call algæ. The greater num-


41


ber of the specimens examined were of a single species of sphærozyga, although other forms occurred less abundantly. It is of the growth and decay of these minute plants that the un- pleasant taste and odor which have affected your water supply are to be ascribed.


I should, perhaps, hesitate to regard these algæ as the cause of the trouble, if the difficulty were peculiar to Plymouth, but I have been engaged for several years in investigating similar troubles elsewhere, and many such cases have come under my observation.


It is by no means an unusual thing for the water supply of a town or city to acquire an unpleasant taste and odor, lasting for a longer or shorter time. 'Any pond or river water is liable to be affected in this way, and spring or well waters are not always exempt; in fact, most towns and cities possessing a water supply have had at some time an experience of this kind, and in some localities the trouble appears regularly every year. I do not say, nor do I believe, that every case where the water supply is affected can be traced to the same cause, but in a number of instances there seems to be little doubt that the cause, as in Plymouth, is the multiplication of minute vege- table organisms, especially those belonging to certain families. We do not know all the plants which can produce this effect, nor do we know all the circumstances which favor their growth and decay, and, at present at least, we have no means of pre- venting their growth. It is possible that, under certain circum- stances, the flushing out of a pipe, or the increasing the flow where the circulation has been sluggish, may produce a tem- porary increase or decrease of the unpleasant odor and taste, but as long as the trouble exists at the fountain head, the mat- ter is beyond the control of any Water Committee or Superin- tendent.


42


I do not think any plan of filtering the water at the lake through sand and gravel would accomplish the removal of the disagreeable taste and odor, for these are due in part, at any rate, to matters which have actually dissolved in the water. Filtration through cloth, through sponge, or through small filters of sand and charcoal, may remove the solid particles which are suspended in the water, and it is, no doubt, desirable to do this; the water is not, however, by this process freed from the disagreeable qualities. The odor and taste can be re- moved by filtration through a sufficient amount of animal char- coal, and there are certain filters constructed of this material which are much used in England, and to some extent in this country. There are other filters, such as the "Spongy Iron" and the "Silicated Carbon" filters, which I have no doubt would accomplish the same results, although I have not had the opportunity of experimenting with them. Of course, the ex- pense would be in the way of their general adoption.


As far as I have been able to ascertain from other places, there is no evidence to show that the water in its present con- dition is likely to be at all unwholesome, however unpleasant it may be to use.


I can venture on no prediction as to the probable duration of the trouble. Judging from the experience of other localities, 1 should not be surprised if it continued during the Summer, and it may recur another season, or it may not appear again until after an interval of years.


I do not think that any peculiarity of Little South Pond in- fluences the matter, as I found the same condition of things in Great South Pond, and know that it exists in other ponds in the State.

OVERSEERS OF THE POOR.


REPORT.


Calls for help from the poor the past year have been more frequent and pressing than we have ever known before. Want of employment, or the the means of earning bread, has been their chief complaint. The Selectmen have furnished employ- ment at times to some of the poor, but there has been general complaint of want of work.


The inmates of the Almshouse have been made very com- fortable. They have had good care and gentle treatment, and food good and abundant.


The poor outside of the Almshouse have not fared so well. We have endeavored to do the best we could for them, but knew that we were likely to overdraw the appropriation.


We should have been glad to have been more generous to them, or rather not have been obliged to keep them so frugally


We have no ambition for the reputation of saving the money of the Town at the cost of distressing the Town's poor.


Want of room has often prevented our taking families to the Almshouse, where they could be made more comfortable, and we think the time has come when the Almshouse should be en- larged.


We have entertained one thousand and nineteen tramps the past year, at an estimate cost of $500-an increase of three hundred and twenty-one over the year 1876.

50


The Legislature, we are happy to know, have the tramp question under consideration, and, it is to be hoped, will frame some law that shall relieve the country of this intolerable nuisance- tramping.


If the Legislature fail to enact a law to take care of tramps, we recommend that a small building be purchased, or one erected near the Almshouse, in which tramps may be housed.


We have no suitable place for them, and it is not safe to keep them as they have been kept. There is danger of fire and the destruction of life and property.


A small building, fitted up cheaply, and furnished with can- vas hammocks, that could be easily taken down and kept clean, would seem to be the safest and best way of housing them


The building could be used about the farm for other pur- poses to advantage, if tramps should ever ccase from troubling, and tramping become a lost art.

FIRE DEPARTMENT.


The following annual report of the Plymouth Fire De- partment for the year 1877, I respectfully submit to the Selectmen of the Town of Plymouth :


EXPENSES OF THE DEPARTMENT.


CR.


Appropriation of 1877.


$2,200 00


Cash on hand Jan. 1, 1877 237 57


$2,437 57


DR.


Expenditures in 1877. $3,079 69


Balance overdrawn Jan. 1, 1878


$642 12


I recommend an appropriation of $2,000 for the ensuing year. As some explanation seems called for as to the comparative large expenditures of this department, I would say that Steam Engine No. 1, having been in service some years, it was deemed advisable by the Board to have an examination made as to the condition of her tubes and boiler. The services of the maker of the boiler were secured, and after an inspection of the tubes he pronounced them badly eaten, and that a new set was needed. The engine was sent to Boston, and after removing


53


the tubes, the boiler was found to be in a bad condition, and that, for safety, a new one was required. In this connection it is well to say that the action of South Pond water on iron is very detrimental-so much so that in the experience of the men at the repair shop they had never seen anything like it, considering the number of years the engine had been in use. After some unavoidable delay, the engine was returned with a new steel boiler, copper tubes, and a tank of double the capaci- ty of the old one, which was needed, the old one being very small - those repairs amounted to $840. We are now using water from the Robinson Iron Company's pond to stand in our boilers, no bad effects being noticed on the boilers at the Com- pany's mill. Both engines, with proper care in the supply of water, we consider good for a number of years. The expense on No. 1, and the fitting up of two houses to receive the engines at an expense of $50, has swelled the expenditures to the above figures.


APPARATUS.


The apparatus of the department consists of two steam engines, two hand engines, each with hose-carriages ; one hook and ladder truck, four independent hose-carriages, two force pumps, and two hand engines in reserve; the "Niagara," in good working order, having been made so during the year at no cost to the department. There is in use 3,300 feet of hose- most of it in good condition ; 200 feet of new hose has been purchased during the year.


The reservoirs and hydrants are all in good order. Two Ludlow post hydrants have been set during the year ; number of hydrants in the department, 50 ; reservoirs, 5.


I recommend some different arrangement for supplying the watering cart without the use of the fire hydrants.


54


I again call attention to the necessity of a larger water pipe on Fremont street.


The houses of the department are in good condition. The subject of a new house for the steam engines has been so much discussed that no further explanation seems necessary. I just say that the Hayward lot has been purchased, the cellar built, and the Committee are now awaiting milder weather to com- mence work on a brick house of which the department will be proud.


MANUAL FORCE.


The manual force of the department consists of 160 men with a Board of Engineers of five, a Chief and four Assistants. During the year the company at North Plymouth has been changed to ten full-pay and twenty call members, to be paid by the hour for actual service.


FIRES.


There has been but one alarm during the year, to which the department responded-a fire on Main street, Feb. 17. Loss, $2,675; covered by insurance.


REMARKS.


Although the year has been so void of actual service, and the enthusiasm that always follows, and which is so necessary to a well ordered and efficient department, the members, and also my assistants, have not lost any interest looking to the welfare and condition of the department, for which I tender them my thanks.


SAMUEL BRADFORD,


Chief of Fire Department.
