It has been found necessary to replace the wooden outlet to the North Plymouth sewer, and 1,400 feet of 12 inch iron pipe has been purchased for that purpose and paid for from the sewer account. It is planned to put this in in 1912. There was also purchased and paid for from this account 400 feet of six inch Akron pipe for the sewer at Magoni terrace, the property owners paying the cost of laying this.

WELLINGSLEY SEWER.
This sewer was begun late in the year and work on it was discontinued before completion on account of the lateness of the season. Most of the supplies for this work have been pur- chased and paid for and are on hand in readiness for the
-45-
continuance of the work in the spring. The pipe from Hobb's Hole brook to the shore has been laid and from the same point along Sandwich street to Jabez corner, a total distance of 2,870 feet ; and eight manholes have been built in the same. The appropriation for Wellingsley sewer was, $6,000 00
Payments for labor and supplies, 5,766 77
Leaving an undrawn balance of $233 23
There will be a credit of $100.00 for iron pipe on hand, which will not be used on this work, but will be taken by the Street Department for use in the streets.
STREET SPRINKLING.
The use of emulsifying oil for street sprinkling has been continued, a larger amount being used this year than last. Four tank car loads of Standard Oil, 13 per cent., and one tank car of Barrett Mfg. Co.'s oil of the same grade have been used. This was not entirely satisfactory on the main streets of the Town, as the greater amount of travel on these streets neces- sitated a too frequent application of the oil. On the side streets it worked better and on the steep grades it prevented washing to a great extent, as well as laying the dust. I would recom- mend a heavier oil on the main streets.

AUDITOR'S REPORT.
I have examined the accounts of the Town Treasurer and Collector of Taxes for the year 1911 and found the same to be correct. Vouchers have been shown for payments, which have been changed to the proper accounts, and the cash on hand Jan. 1, 1912, was $7,580.70, as shown in the Treasurer's report.
The Town debt at the close of the year was $289,849.76, which is a net decrease for the year of $60,903.32.
The Morton, Warren and Murdock Trust Funds, amounting to $3,730, which were carried in the Town Treasury, have during the year been deposited as special funds in the Plymouth Sav- ings Bank.

Town Auditor.
