SPECIAL TOWN MEETING.


REPORT OF COMMITTEE FOR THE DEDICATION OF SOLDIERS' MONUMENT.


Mr. Moderator and Gentlemen :-


The Committee of fifteen chosen at a special Town Meeting held on the evening of April 24, 1895, to arrange for a celebra- tion and the dedication of the Soldiers' Monument on the Fourth of July, -- consisting of the following gentlemen: H. H. Atherton, Charles H. Bond, I. E. Graves, Levi G. Hawkes, Lewis P. Hawkes, Charles H. Mansfield, Wilbur F. Newhall, Herbert B. Newhall, P. H. Nourse, Frank E. Parker, Arthur B. Smith, Isaac H. Stearns, Charles O. Thompson, Benjamin F. Robinson and James Maxwell,-respectfully submit the fol- lowing report of their doings :-


The Committee met on April 30 and organized with I. E. Graves, chairman; I. H. Stearns, secretary, and Levi G. Hawkes, treasurer. Mr. Maxwell and Mr. Robinson tendered their resignations as members of the Committee, and John B. Walton and Elbridge S. Upham were chosen to fill their places. As the Town could not legally appropriate any money to carry out the arrangements, the Committee immediately took steps by issuing subscription papers to raise money for the same. At this meeting the Committee decided to have two parades- antique and horrible parade in the morning, and a military, civic and trades' procession in the afternoon; also decided to invite the Department officers of the G. A. R. to dedicate the monument. Various sub-committees were appointed at this meeting to arrange for these and other matters. Twelve more meetings were held previous to the Fourth, at which more sub- committees were chosen to arrange for other matters as they ·came along, and as the report of the subscription papers came in very favorably, the Committee laid out quite an extensive celebration and dedication.


The total amount of money received by subscription was $824.25; total amount paid out, $797.58, leaving a balance of $26.67, which was voted by the Committee to be turned over to the relief fund of Post 95, G. A. R.


The monument was dedicated by the Department officers in : a most beautiful and impressive manner, and the Committee


35


SPECIAL TOWN MEETING.


believe that the dedication was one worthy of the occasion, and the citizens of Saugus have good reasons to congratulate them- selves on the final solution of the long-delayed question of the dedication of the Soldiers' Monument.


There is one point that the Committee deem worthy of special mention in connection with the matter, and that is the business enterprise shown by the house of the L. A. May Co. of Lynn, whose property was burned at II o'clock on the 3d of July and who had the order to furnish the dishes for the supper on the Fourth, and were to be delivered on the evening of the third at 7 o'clock, and nothwithstanding their loss, they arrived with the dishes at 9 o'clock.


ISAAC E. GRAVES, Chairman. ISAAC H. STEARNS, Secretary. LEVI G. HAWKES, Treasurer.
