The Overseers of the Poor, in presenting the foregoing report, regret that the Saugus Home has not been quite self- sustaining, owing largely to a smaller hay crop than usual, and the partial failure of some other crops, on account of the dry weather in both spring and fall. The Home is well kept and never appeared more tidy, inside and outside, than now, and the inmates are well cared for by Mr. and Mrs. Burnham, the Warden and Matron.
This Board called the attention of the Selectmen to the neces- sity of some repairs on the exterior of the buildings and the painting of the same. After inspecting the premises they decided, for the protection of the buildings and to make the Home creditable to the Town, this should be done, and, in due time they attended to the matter, and the result is generally con- sidered satisfactory.
During the year there have been six inmates, but one died, so that only five remain, the same number as at the close of 1904.
We conclude this report by recommending that the sum of $3,500.00 be appropriated for the ensuing year.
Respectfully submitted, JAMES A. HALLIDAY, GEORGE H. AMES, HENRY N. OLIVER,
Overseers of Poor.
