$42,720 72
The Commissioners, at their meeting in December, (at which time the sinking fund is usually invested), found that if the whole amount of their appropriations was withdrawn from the town treasury and invested. it would deplete the treasury to such an extent as to necessitate the calling an extra town meeting to provide funds for the payment of current expenses of the year, this owing to the fact that there remains so large an amount of unpaid taxes upon the books of the Treasurer .. The collection of these taxes will place sufficient funds in the treasury to meet the withdrawal and investment of the above balance.
