Auditor's Report.


To the Citizens of Swampscott :


We herewith present the annual report for the fiscal year end- ing January 31, 1910.


The Treasurer's account has been examined quarterly. The items of receipts and expenditures checked up and a correct bal- ance found. We have audited the accounts of the Collector of Taxes and of the various departments, have examined the bonds of the Water Department Sinking Fund and find them correct. Bank cashiers' certificates show the Treasurer's balance as cor- rect each quarter.


Respectfully submitted,
