Weymouth, January 27, 1930.
I have examined the accounts of John H. Stetson, Treasurer of the Weymouth Water Department and find them correct. The records of the Collector's Department have been checked with the Treasurer at least once a month during the year and I am satis- fied that the report of the Collector is correct.

REPORT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTANT
East Weymouth, Mass., Jan. 27, 1930- To the Board of Selectmen and Board of Public Welfare: Gentlemen:
I submit herewith the 28th annual report of the accounting. department showing the financial transactions of the several branches of town activities.
The accounts of the several town officials have been examined periodically and found correct. Cash balances have been verified at least once a month as required by law.
The accounts of the Tax Collectors have been thoroughly audited as of Dec. 31, 1929 and notices forwarded to those ap- pearing as indebted to the town. I am satisfied that the books are correct as no question has been raised as to the validity of any statement.
The several Trust accounts in possession of the Treasurer were examined and found as stated in his report. The Sealer of Weights and Measures collected during the year the sum of $364.86 but $201.24 of this amount was not paid over to the Treasurer until January 1930; it will appear, therefore, in the receipts of 1930.
The final payment was made in 1929 on the loan floated for the town's proporationate part of the cost of construction of the Norfolk County T. B. Hospital, while in 1930 the final payment will be made for the construction of the Monatiquot River Bridge.
The several statements appended to this report summarize the financial condition of the town. Detailed information relative to the several statements contained in this report are on file. in my office and are available for anyone desiring to inspect them.
The recent publicity given to the methods employed in certain municipalities leads me to add that the various boards and departments of our local government are complying with the statutes in practically all instances mentioned in the public press.
The department appreciates the co-operative spirit shown by the board and department heads and is willing at all times to render assistance on matters of municipal finance.
Respectfully, EMERSON R. DIZER, Town Accountant
