NOTICE.
Parents and others are requested to carefully examine the above lists and if any errors or omissions are discovered, report them at once to the Town Clerk, that the record may be cor- rected, as it is of importance that the records of Vital Statistics should be complete.
Parents within forty days after the birth of a child, and every householder, within forty days after the birth in his house, shall cause notice thereof to be given to the clerk of the town in which such child is born.
Your attention is called to the provisions of Sections 36 and 55 of Chapter 207 of the General Laws relating to marriages solemnized out of this state, which are as follows :
"Section 29 of Chapter 151 of the Revised Laws: If a mar- riage is solemnized in another state between parties living in this Commonwealth who return to dwell here they shall, within seven days after their return, file with the clerk or registrar of the city or town in which either of them lived at the time of their marriage, a certificate or declaration of their marriage, including the facts relative to marriages, which are required by law, and for neglect thereof shall forfeit ten dollars."
Blanks for the return of all Vital records can be obtained from the Town Clerk.
Respectfully submitted,
ALBERT S. COLEMAN,
Town Clerk.
