ENGINEER'S REPORT.
To the Weymouth Water Board :
GENTLEMEN, - I respectfully submit the following for the year ending Dec. 31, 1891 : -
The pumps and boilers are in good condition. I have repacked the plungers to the Blake pump, put in one new rubber valve and spring, and also put on a new throttle-valve.
One new valve and seven new springs have been needed in the vacuum pumps.
The spring in the six-inch relief valve between the force and suction mains of the Deane pump broke some time during the night of Sept. 24, so that the check valve between it and the stand-pipe did not close tightly, and before morning we had lost about one hundred thousand gallons of water from our stand-pipe which had run back into the pond and gravity system.
Have pumped for three fires, - April 29 and 30 and Dec. 3.
Let on the high service eight times : Feb. 14, March 8, May 12, June 3, June 23, July 4, July 8, and Dec. 2.
The following tables show the amount of water pumped, coal consumed, etc.
Respectfully submitted,
GEORGE W. SARGENT, Engineer.

WEYMOUTH PARK COMMISSIONERS' REPORT.
WEYMOUTH, Feb. 5, 1892.
We have but little to add to our reports for the years 1889 and 1890, except to say that there has been expended on the North Weymouth Park about $40 for the year 1891, in setting out trees, flowers, and shrubs, and taking care of the same, and improving the walks, and paying for the use of the town water, and mowing and trimming the grass ; all of which has been done or paid for by private contribution. - We have received the $75 from Mr. W. L. Bradley, alluded to in our report for 1890, and hold the same for such future use on this park as may be deemed advisable. On the Webb Park there has been expended about $50 in setting out trees, the cost of which was defrayed by private contribution, and boundary stones have been erected at its angles.
We still hope for new donations of land for parks and play- grounds, and for additional contributions to improve the grounds already given to the town.
Respectfully submitted,
E. S. BEALS, WM. H. CLAPP, LOUIS A. COOK, Park Commissioners.
