Bennett Street .- This street has been raised, widened and graded, in accordance with the vote of the town, at an expense of one hundred and fifty dollars.
46
Richardson Street .- This street has also been raised and graded, as per vote of the town, at an expense of one hun- dred and five dollars and seventy-seven cents.
PERAMBULATION OF THE TOWN LINES.
The perambulation of the line between Wakefield and Reading was made in October, and the bound stones found in proper order.
In the perambulation of the line between Wakefield and Stoneham, the bound stones were found in proper order with one exception ; this has been replaced with a new stone, at an expense of eight dollars and fifteen cents (half cost.)
GUIDE BOARDS.
Guide-boards have been placed upon Green, Water, Pleas- ant, Vernon, and New Salem streets. We are not aware of any others being required at present.
SAUGUS RIVER. ·
The sum of two hundred dollars was appropriated by the town for changing the channel of Saugus river, so that it should become the boundary line between Wakefield and Lynnfield, but an examination of the ground showed that a much larger sum would be necessary for that purpose, and therefore, the money was placed to the credit of the Fish Committee for opening the old channel, and removing the obstructions to the passage of fish.
LICENSES.
Under the Act of April 5th, 1875, a fourth class, or drug- gist license, was granted to J. D. Mansfield and Wm. H. Piper, and second and third class licenses were granted to Isaac Barton, Aaron Butler, George Cox, William O. Evans, Thomas Lally, Mary Cox, and Mary Welch, for the sale of malt liquors, cider and light wines, and the license fees, amounting to four hundred and fifty dollars, were paid into the town treasury.
47
TOWN HISTORIES.
Sixty-three copies of the Town History remained on hand at the close of the last year. Of these, thirty-five have been sold during the year, and the proceeds ($35.00) paid to the Town Treasurer.
ARMORY RENT.
The balance due from John M. Cate ($151.60) in settle- ment of Armory rent, has been paid to the Town Treasurer, and a new contract has been entered into between Mr. Cate and the Selectmen, for the use of the Armory hall and ante- rooms, at a rent of $350 per year.

ENGINEERS' REPORT,
FOR THE YEAR ENDING MARCH 1ST, 1878.
The Fire Department consists of two hand Engines, one Hook and Ladder Truck, one Chemical Engine with twenty- five hundred feet of hose, all in good condition.
The Board appointed eighty-seven members, divided as follows :- Yale Engine Co., fifty-seven men ; Washington Hook and Ladder Co., twenty men; Chemical Engine Co., twelve men.
At a meeting of the Board of Engineors, held in May last, a committee from the C. Wakefield Engine Company inform- ed the Board that the members wanted pay for their services the coming year. We advised them to lay the matter before the town at the next meeting, as we understood the appro- priation committee did not include the payment of the C. Wakefield Company.
FIRES.
The losses during the past year have been small compared with previous years. Following is a list of fires for the year ending March 1st; 1878 :
June 5. Dwelling house at Woodville, loss $400.
June 10. Shed connected with Osgood's factory on Al- bion street, loss $40.
Aug. 3. In dwelling house corner of Bryant and Vernon streets, loss $5.

The Engineers caused a well to be built near the Yale En- gine house at a cost of $36.90.
Also purchased 100 feet of hose for the Chemical Engine, at a cost of $20.32.
The Board would recommend the town to appropriate the sum of $120, for the purpose of painting, papering and car- peting the Hall of the Yale Engine House.
All of which is respectfully submitted,

FISH COMMITTEE'S REPORT.
In presenting our second annual report we desire to ex- press our gratification at the cordial manner in which our efforts have been seconded by the people ; exceptions have been met with of course, but those very exceptions have been so presented in contrast to our general experience, as to exhibit their authors in so narrow-minded and selfish a light as to make us more keenly appreciate the public spirit and good will of the majority.
When we presented our last report it was understood that all the fishways on the Saugus River were to be completed early in April last. Messrs. Pranker & Co., of Saugus, had theirs completed at that time, but as Mr. Scott, the owner of the dam below theirs, did not complete his until June, theirs, of course, was useless until that time. Mr. Philip Hone, the owner of the next dam above Pranker's, was given his choice by Mr. Brackett of the State Commission to either build a fishway over his dam or hoist his gate and give the fish the natural channel of the river during the time they are usually running. He preferred to do the latter, and last year, as soon as the fishways below were completed, we requested him to hoist it, which he did very readily, and it is expected that he will hoist it again this spring as soon as it is time for the fish to begin running. The next dam above his is the one in Montrose. It is owned by Messrs. Pranker & Co., of Sau- gus, who built a fishway there as soon as they were furnished with plans. The next and last dam on this river is at the saw mill on Vernon street ; it is owned by Mr. W. A. Ken- rick, who has arranged the waste gate so that there is no necessity for a fishway at this dam.
During the past year that portion of the river which was so nearly filled as to prevent the passage of fish, has been
54
thoroughly cleaned out ; the town of Lynnfield paying one- half the expense of cleaning that portion of it which is on the line between the two towns, and this town the balance.
Considering the fact that one year since it was impossible for migratory fish to ascend this river beyond Scott's dam in Saugus, and that to-day they have an unobstructed passage- way to Lake Quannapowitt, this town has reason to congrat- ulate itself on the progress it has made in this important branch of industry. Now that our river has been reopened, it is capable of being so restocked with useful fishes that at their proper season all may have an opportunity to catch and consume. Once it was possible for every family in this town to take a supply of alewives from this river each year, but this is no longer the case ; but in a few years it can be so restocked that it will furnish to all not only an abundance of these fish, but probably of shad and salmon ..
LAKE QUANNAPOWITT.
As directed by vote of the town, we have taken, in its behalf, a lease of this lake for the purpose of cultivating use- ful fishes, for the term of fifteen years from May 1st, 1877. The conditions in the lease are, that no fishing shall be allowed during the first four and last one year of said term, and that at least one hundred black bass of an average weight of at least one and one-half pounds each should be placed in the " lake alive and in good condition during the first year of the lease ; this last condition has been complied with. Imme- diately after the lease was received, notices were posted in the vicinity of the lake, stating that it had been leased, and that any person fishing therein previous to May 1st, 1881, would be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Thus far we have had but one violation of this condition, which was promptly disposed of, and sincerely hope that it will not be again violated, as our fish and fisheries are the capital of the town, and we are all interested in their preser- vation alike, and it is the duty of every good citizen to see that this condition of the lease is lived up to.

ALEWIVES.
In May last we placed about two hundred of these fish in the lake ; they were taken from Strawberry Brook in Lynn, at no expense to us except for transportation, (the Fish Commissioners of that city very kindly giving us permission to take them on the days when fishing was prohibited on that stream.) These fish during the summer spawned in the lake, and in September their young left it by the thousand for the salt water, Next year it will be necessary to place another lot of them in the lake, as the young females do not return to where they were bred until they are two or three years old, and it is exceedingly doubtful if any of the old ones which we placed there last year reach our water again this year. It seems to be the opinion of many that in open- ing a river for the passage of fish, that all that it is necessary to do, is to simply build fishways over its dams, and that when this is done the fish will run to its headwaters of their own accord ; this is not so, the instincts of migratory fishes teaches them to return to the place where they were bred. All of these fish in this river, previous to 1877, were bred below Pranker & Co.'s dam, and there they returned ; now and then one might have, and probably did, find its way through the fishways in Saugus, but this was the exception rather than the rule, but no alewives reached our lake except those that were carried there.
SHAD.
We expected before this to have our river stocked with these fish ; the State Commissioners promised to supply us with about fifty thousand of their young last July, but our name being unfortunately the last on the list, and the supply of adult fish falling short unexpectedly, they were obliged to suspend operations at the hatching station at South Hadley. Falls before reaching our order, but we have been promised a supply for this year, and trust that we shall not again be disappointed.
56
CALIFORNIA SALMON.
In December last we placed about ten thousand of these fish in the river, which, with the lot placed there in 1876, makes upward of twenty thousand of this valuable variety of fish which have been placed in this river during the last two years. Their introduction to a stream of this size is an experiment, and it is to be hoped that it will prove successful, but time alone will decide it. It is intended to keep on placing them there each year until it is decided, which will probably be in about four years. These fish stand the extremes of heat and cold far better than the Atlantic Salmon, and for that reason it is thought that their introduction to a stream of this size will be successful.
BLACK BASS.
In July last we contracted for two hundred and fifty of these fish, with which to stock our lake ; on August 30th we received thirty-three of them (four of which afterward died) ; September 25th, one hundred and fifteen ; October 25th, one hundred and fifteen more, making in all two hundred and fifty-nine of them that were placed in Lake Quannapowitt alive and in good condition. They weighed from three-fourths of a pound to five pounds each, which is a very good stock for a lake of this size, and by the time it is open to fishing it cannot help being well stocked with these fish, which not only afford good sport for the angler, but good solid food for . the table.
LAND-LOCKED SALMON.
In May last we placed upward of six thousand of the fry of these fish in the lake ; as they have not, to our knowledge, been seen since, it is impossible to tell anything about them. That in Maine, the home of these fish, they do well in lakes inhabited by pickerel is well known, but whether they will succeed in lakes inhabited by both pickerel and bass remains to be seen, but it is thought that they will. We have been promised still another lot of them for this spring, and it is to be hoped that their introduction to our lake will be success-
57
ful, as they are a very. gamey fish, and as good, if not better, eating than the Sea Salmon.
During the month of May, it will, in our opinion, be de- sirable to stock the lake with fresh water Smelts; these fish can be obtained in any desired quantity ; the only expense is for catching and transportation, which for the quantity we want will probably not exceed thirty dollars.
It will also be necessary to place another lot of Alewives in the lake this spring, the expense of which will not exceed twenty-five dollars.
The expense of transporting the Shad, which have been ordered, will be about thirty dollars.
As we have a balance of about forty-five dollars on hand, an appropriation of fifty dollars will be sufficient for stocking the river and lake as here suggested, and for the necessary expenses of the Fish Committee during the ensuing year.
It is to us a matter of gratification that our river and lake are so well stocked with valuable fishes that they cannot fail of yielding a large return in valuable food and in innocent recreation, but let us not stop here, but endeavor by the intro- duction of new varieties to so stock our waters that they will furnish us with food that will suit all tastes. The only ex- pense is the first outlay, which in this case is quite small ; their growth and increase after they are once introduced will cost us nothing; nature supplies their food, and man is relieved from any further trouble about them. It is also gratifying to us that we have not only stocked the river and lake with a much larger number of fish than wa's at first intended, but have been able to keep within the appropria- tion made by the town.
In conclusion we will say that it has been our effort to so protect and develop the interests consigned to our care, that they may become an increased source of wealth to the town.
