AUDITORS' REPORT.
TO THE LEGAL VOTERS OF QUINCY : -
The undersigned, chosen by the town as Auditors of Accounts for the year ending February 1, 1864, have attended to that duty, and we herewith respectfully submit the Twenty-fifth Annual Report of the Receipts and Expenditures of the Town, as the result of our labors.
We have carefully examined the books and accounts of the Selectmen and Town Treasurer, and found them correct, with proper vouchers for all payments.
Deducting the Neponset bridge award, and notwithstanding the heavy increase in the expenditures for repairs on highways, (the natural result of the system adopted by the town the present year, of choosing a sur- veyor for each district,) and the increased expenses in the schooling department, consequent upon the high price of fuel, the town debt has been reduced a trifle.
Your Auditors are pleased to state, as a result of their visit to the Almshouse establishment, for the purpose of making an appraisal of the personal property, and a thorough inspection of its several apartments, that they found the house and surroundings in a neat and clean con- dition. We are convinced that the present able Superintendent, Mr. Charles Spear, and his wife, use every exertion in their power to provide for the comfort of those who are compelled to take up their residence therein. During the past year five of the aged inmates have been removed by death.
Your attention has been called, from year to year, by the Auditors, to the necessity of new buildings on the Town Farm, and if the able and feeling appeal of the Auditors of last year did not reach your hearts, it is useless for us to attempt it.
4
The Selectmen are, entitled to much praise for the economical and judicious management of the Almshouse establishment, and all other departments over which they had control.
Thanking the Selectmen, Town Treasurer, and Town Clerk (to whom we are indebted for the valuable vital statistics which appear in the Appendix) for valuable assistance rendered us, we submit the following pages for your inspection.
