Respectfully submitted, HARRY I. GRANGER Treasurer Water Department
Weymouth, Mass. January 25, 1950
I have examined the Treasurer's and Collector's accounts in the Wey- mouth Water Department and believe them to be correct. Regular exam- ination of all transactions with a monthly verification of cash with the official statement of the Granite Trust Company satisfies me that the Treasurer has properly accounted for all funds intrusted to him.

First meeting held April 28 at the Town Hall at 8 p.m.
It was voted that the chairman would be the Chief Marshal, and Mary Condon of the All Women Post, American Legion would be Secretary.
The Committee was informed that the sum of $1,500.00 was appropri- ated by the town for the Observance of Memorial Day. After figuring bills out we found that approximately $200.00 more was needed. A request was sent to the Selectmen, and this was granted.
Two more Committee Meetings were held and at the second meeting the question of visiting the Cemeteries in the town was discussed, and the exercises to be held at the St. Francis Xavier Cemetery.
The program was as follows: Assembly at the corner of Neck and North Streets at 7:30; paraded to Caldwell Square where a wreath was placed by Cdr. Rein of the North Weymouth A. L. Post No. 394.
From there to the Old North Cemetery for Memorial Exercises at the Grand Army Memorial Monument, where a wreath was placed by Lt. Wm. Seach, Congressional Medal of Honor winner and Ernest Smith, Past Cdr. of the James L. Bates Camp No. 36, Sons of Union Veterans, and a salute was fired by the Roger Grande Post No. 58 Amvets Firing Squad. Thence the parade proceeded to corner of Church and North, where members of the parade entered busses and rode to the Village Cemetery. After exer- cises, we proceeded in the same manner to the St. Francis Xavier, where Memorial Day Ceremonies were conducted with the program as follows:
1. Trooping to the colors.
2. Prayer by Rev. Father O'Brien.
3. Salute to colors.
4. Selection by the band (America).
5. Reading of General Logan's "General Orders" for the observance of Memorial Day by Harriet C. Fern, President, Daughter of Union Veter- ans.
6. Band Selections - Civil War Airs.
7. Lincoln's "Gettysburg Address" by Mrs. May Blanchard, Past Dept. President of Daughters of Union Veterans.
