AUDITORS' REPORT.
THE Auditors have examined the accounts and vouchers of the several boards, and herewith present their report in detail.
We can already appreciate the advantage of the change in the financial year, as the officers have ample time to balance accounts before our examination.
The Highway Department, while showing an apparent increase, really has spent less money than was spent on our streets last year, as all expenses this year have been charged to that depart- ment, instead of the Selectmen's incidentals. We think any one familiar with our streets is aware that we have had our full money's worth in needed repairs and permanent improvements. We find time books have been kept of labor performed, and a detailed report can be made if the town desires.
In accordance with the vote of the town, the Auditors selected a form of account book for use of the Tax Collector, which met the approval of the Assessors and Collector.
While the deficiency in our finances shows a decrease, we remem- ber that we have not reckoned a full year's expenses in all depart- ments, and we have over eight thousand dollars more uncollected taxes than last year, so that our gain may be more apparent than real.
We renew former recommendations as to the importance of col- lecting our taxes more promptly, and while a settlement of 1881 tax has been made in full, it seems proper that a similar settlement should be made of all previous years.
The Town Farm has been carried on with less money drawn from the treasury. We trust the same policy may be continued, and when a favorable opportunity occurs, a large part of the land may be disposed of and a portion of the proceeds used to make some repairs on the almshouse that are greatly needed.
