Fertilizer Company the same price per ton for the 6-inch pipe taken up as the Bradley Company paid for the 10-inch pipe, all of which was to be done under the direction of Mr. Reis, our superintendent.


This proposition was accepted, and the same has been completed. The 6-inch pipe taken out of Neck Street has been laid in East and Norton Streets, which completes a new main from Com- mercial Street through Union Avenue to Pearl Street, and we believe will be of great advantage to our system in guarding against any break in that section of our town.


Your Commissioners are convinced that a connection should be made between the high service in Ward 4 and the system in Ward 3, thereby securing an additional main pipe from the south to the north part of our town, and a sufficient pressure in the higher por- tion of Ward 3, where the service is not satisfactory.


We also have petitions asking for extensions in other places, and we think, during the coming year, some of them should be granted.


The superintendence of the works has continued under the man- agement of Mr. George J. Reis to our satisfaction in every way, and we have secured his services for the ensuing year, at the same salary ($1,500) as paid the past year.


Mr. George W. Sargent, our engineer at the pumping station, has fulfilled our expectations in taking careful charge of the station and its grounds, and has managed the same to our satis- faction.


BONDS.


Pursuant to a vote of the town, your Commissioners petitioned the Legislature of the State of Massachusetts for authority of the town to issue bonds to the amount of $50,000, for the needs of the water works.


According to the same, the Legislature granted the authority by the passage of the act. Approved June 13, 1887.


These bonds have been prepared but not issued.

MILL AND LAND DAMAGES.


The County Commissioners for Norfolk filed their decrce, assessing damages for the injury to the estates of the several owners who had not accepted the sums offered by the Water Board, resulting from the taking of land for a water pipe line, in the month of August last, excepting, however, the case of the South Boston Ice Company, whose petition is still pending, unheard, before said Commissioners.


The sums awarded to the ten petitioners whose claims were pre- sented amount to $1,761, and more than one half of this amount has been paid to the parties claiming, and we have expressed our read- iness to pay the residue upon the request of those entitled to receive it.


The suits of Quincy L. Reed, executor, and others, mill-owners, v. the Town of Weymouth, for the recovery of damages for the taking of the waters of Great Pond, as the source of water supply for the town, were first submitted to the County Commissioners for adjudication, without a hearing, and a nominal sum awarded to each of the petitioners, from which judgment the plaintiffs appealed to the Superior Court.


Acting under the authority conferred upon us by the vote of the town, passed on the thirty-first day of August last, a conference was held between the chairman of the board of assignees of the Weymouth Iron Company and the chairman of the Water Board, with a view to determine whether it was practicable to agree upon a basis for compromise of their suit; but the wide divergence of the opinions of the two parties, as indicated by this conference, in respect to a just basis for settlement, rendered this effort of no avail, and at the September sitting of the Superior Court for this county, the five mill-owners's suits were fully and ably tried before a jury of said court, and resulted in verdicts for each of the peti- tioners, as follows : Quincy L. Reed, executor, $3,884.10 ; Reuben Loud et al., $2,710.10 ; Elon Sherman, $3,531; John C. Howe · et al., $4,708 ; John E. Sanford et al., assignees, $17,199.71.

The plaintiffs have claimed many exceptions to the rulings of the Court, upon the admission of evidence in the trial of these cases, and they will probably be argued in March before the Supreme Court. They also filed a motion for a new trial, on the ground of the inadequacy of the verdicts rendered, and the argu- ments of counsel thereon have been heard by the Court, but no decision upon the motion has been filed. If either of the excep- tions are sustained or this motion is granted, a new trial will be required for the determination of the plaintiffs' damages.


The expenses of each of these suits, so far as the bills have been presented, are stated in the schedule of payments subjoined.


SINKING FUND.


The time has arrived when, by force of Chapter 174 of the Acts of the Legislature, passed in the year 1881, entitled "An Act to Supply the Town of Weymouth with Pure Water," the town is required to set apart as a sinking fund, for the payment of the principal of its water honds, the net surplus income and receipts from the rents received for the use of water, after deducting from such rents all expenses, interest on the water loan, and charges of distribution of the water ; and it appears by computation that a present payment of $6,000, and a payment of the sum of $3,000, semi-annually, on the first days of May and November of each year, until their maturity, with interest at the rate of four per cent per annum, will be needed to create a fund sufficient to pay when due the principal of the issue of the three hundred $1,000 bonds, dated Oct. 1, 1884.


The above-named act provides that the " Water Commissioners shall be trustees of said fund "; and we recommend that the town authorize its Treasurer to pay to said trustees, out of the unex- pended balance of water rents, to be invested by them as a sinking fund, under the provisions of said act, the sum of $12,000, in the manner following, namely : $6,000 on or before the first day of April next ; $3,000 on the first day of May next; and $3,000 on the first day of November next.


155


Your Commissioners would respectfully ask for an appropriation of $15,000 from money now in their hands, for the purpose of making such extensions as may be deemed necessary for the en- suing year ; also for $13,000 for the payment of interest, and $4,000 for current expenses. They would also ask for an appropriation of $7,500 for hydrants, and $300 for fountains.


Respectfully submitted,


AUGUSTUS J. RICHARDS, HENRY A. NASH, THOMAS H. HUMPHREY, JOHN H. STETSON, GEORGE A. CUSHING, Water Commissioners.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT ..


To the Honorable Board of Water Commissioners of the Town of Weymouth :


I herewith submit my annual report for the year ending Dec. 31,1887.


The work of this department during the past year has not been so extensive as last year, although we have laid 2,562 miles of mains and made two hundred and forty-seven (247) service connections.


The taking up of 6-inch pipe and replacing with 10-inch, from Bridge Street through Neck and River Streets to the Bradley Fer- tilizer Works, and the extension of 8-inch pipe through Neck Street from North to Bridge Street, was done by the Bradley Fertil- izer Company to procure a better fire protection, and in so doing I think they have been very successful.


DISTRIBUTION PIPES.


Our mains have caused us but little trouble the past year ; have had but four leaks, one in lead joint in 6-inch main on Bridge Street, one caused by defect in pipe in 2-inch main on Cleverly's Court, one in lead joint in 12-inch main on Broad Street, and one in 14-inch main, on Middle Street, near the Town House, where the pipe was found to be cracked, and it was necessary to replace about eight feet.


HYDRANTS.


The hydrants have all been painted the past year, and are in good condition. Three have been repaired, as follows : One on Pearl Street, and two on Pleasant Street, at a small expense.


170


STOP GATES.


[ During the past year nothing has been done on our gates in the way of repairs. They have all been inspected, and seem to be in fair condition.


STANDPIPE.


Last February the upper guys in standpipe gave way, letting the centre pipe down. As soon as the weathe rwould permit, the water was drawn out, the sides and bottom thoroughly cleaned, and the centre pipe replaced. No other repairs have been needed, with the exception of painting, which, I think, really ought to be done the coming spring.


PUMPING STATION AND LOT.'


Some repairs and improvements have been made, such as paint- ing horse-sheds, graining doors, and painting window-casings to pumping station, building drain to carry the water from scale pit and conductors, clearing off lot in rear of building, setting corner bounds, building drive leading to horse-shed, seeding down plot of land between the drive and coal-shed, and setting out flowers in the front lawn.


Two shade trees have been set out on the edge of sidewalk by the Improvement Society.


The following table shows the streets that have been piped the past year : -
