FIRE DEPARTMENT.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen-

The Board of Engineers present their annual report covering the year 1909.

APPARATUS.

The department has in commission at the present time :

Three Engines,

Two Hose Wagons,

One Hose Reel,

One Chemical,

Two Ladder Trucks.

The last report called attention to the fact that one of the small engines should be replaced with a new modern engine of suitable capacity to properly safeguard the Town. During the summer, Engine 2 broke down, and was of necessity out of commission several days. Repairs were made by a Boston Com- pany, but the nature of the break was such that the Company mentioned, informed your Board that the work could not be guaranteed, and that the engine would very likely break down again without warning.

It is deemed extremely unwise to depend upon such an un- certainty for a part of the Town's protection, and it is urgently recommended that a new engine be purchased this year. The cost would be $5,250.00, and this amount may be saved in a comparatively small fire. Engine 2 has been in service since 1874, and is of small capacity, and the Board believe the condi-

1-90-

tion so serious that it merits careful consideration. Disaster from this cause should be prevented.

Chemical 2 developed leaks in the domes of the tanks, and was entirely rebuilt during the autumn. It is now better than before, for during the rebuilding, it was equipped with improve- ments which have been made since the machine was purchased. One of the ladder trucks should receive some repairs during the coming year. With the exceptions mentioned the apparatus is in excellent condition.

BUILDINGS.

The stations on Main and South streets have been kept in good condition, and have received necessary repairs. The Sta- tion at North Plymouth is in very bad condition. This is an old wooden building, built about 1840, and located on Russell Street, where the Burton School now stands. It was occupied by Niagara No. 1, the first hand engine used by the Town. About the year 1875, it was moved to its present location, and became the quarters for Rapid 3 (also a hand engine), and in 1893 Steam Fire Engine 3 replaced the hand engine. It seems unwise to lay out money on so old a building. The lot is too small for a suitable building, and the Board recommend that a modern two door Fire Station be erected on the lot soon to be vacated by the Hedge School. This, with a rearrange- ment of apparatus which is contemplated, would give the north part of the Town, the better protection, which the conditions demand.

-91-

FIRE ALARM SYSTEM.

A punching register was added to the system early in the year and it has been of great value. One or two more should be pur- chased.

Necessary repairs have been made, but permanent improve- ments which were planned were necessarily postponed because of the expense attending the replacement of the mechanism for sounding the whistle on the Electric Light Station, after that building was damaged by fire. There were no new boxes added during the year.

The Department has responded to nineteen bell and thirty- six still alarms during the year. The causes were as follows :

13 for fires in chimneys.

11 for fires in houses.

8 for fires in brush and grass.

5 for fires in stores.

5 for fires in barnes.

4 for fires in boats.

2 for fires in coal wharves.

1 for fire in bakery.

1 for fire in electric light station.

1 for fire in printing office.

1 for fire in blacksmith shop.

1 for fire in storehouse.

2 for false alarms.

HOSE.

The Department has 6,200 feet of 2 1-2 inch cotton rubber lined hose in good condition and 900 feet in poor condition. More hose should be purchased before another winter.

SUMMARY.

The average citizen does not appreciate the responsibility placed upon this Department without considering the following figures. The total loss by fire during the past year was $71,269.15. The total insurance paid was $37,173.00, while the property endangered was valued at $249,412.00, and insured for $96,150.00

The largest fire occurred at the E. D. Jordan Estate, which is located four miles from the Centre of the Town. Here the loss was $30,360.00, as the building was enveloped in flame when the- alarm was given.

On May first, another man was added to the permanent force at the Central Station, as driver for the hose wagon. There are a pair of horses always in the station for this wagon, which now responds to alarms as quickly as the Chemical. The calls answered by this piece of apparatus since May first, have clearly demonstrated the value of this arrangement, to the community.
