BOSTON, April 21, 1905.
Board of Selectmen, Swampscott, Mass. :
GENTLEMEN,-The Commission direct me to inform you that it is intended to put in a flight of steps, as requested by you, near the end of Phillips street. They would be glad to consider a request from your Board that this Commission move the edge- stone along Humphrey street where it borders on the reservation, so that the greater part of the present sidewalk will be thrown into the roadway, as it does not seem that a sidewalk would be needed on that side of the street after the granolithic walk is laid along the edge of the new wall.
Very truly yours, JOHN WOODBURY, Secretary.
Voted, That the Secretary be authorized to request the Com- mission to remove the edgestones as suggested in the above communication.

Resolved, That whereas the Town has voted to pay A. O. Cahoon for damages sustained by the taking of his property for park purposes, and whereas, said vote has been adjudicated illegal by the courts ; be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of this Town that the claim of the said A. O. Cahoon is an honest one, and that it is the duty of the Town to adopt all legal measures to the end that said claim be satisfactorily and fairly adjusted ; be it

Report of the Selectmen.
To the Citizens of Swampscott :
The past year has been a busy one with this board. As the Town grows, each department requires more attention and a larger appropriation. The Selectmen believe that the Town should practice economy in the various departments, and for citizens when new improvements are proposed, to study them carefully, that the rate of taxation may be kept at a low figure.
