REPORT OF THE OVERSEERS OF THE POOR.
THE undersigned respectfully submit the result of their ministra- tions as almoners of the town's charity, for the year ending December 31, 1876.
The almshouse and Town Farm have been in charge during the past year of Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Austin, at a salary of $500. The inmates have been cared for by the master and matron to the entire satisfaction of the Overseers.
Two deaths have occurred in the almshouse during the year. The whole number of paupers in the house during the year has been thirty- two, the average number has been twenty-two, and the number at its close is twenty-two. The cost of support for each pauper has been $1.57 per week.
The application for relief outside of the house has been large, and we have been as discreet as our feelings of sympathy and our official responsibility would allow. There seems to be a growing disposition to receive aid out of the house ; and where persons are wholly depend- ent, with no prospect of ever being able to do anything towards their own support, it would seem more economical to maintain them in the house used for invalids, where the town willingly supplies all their wants.
