The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Corporations and Taxation
Bureau of Accounts REPORT OF AN AUDIT
of THE ACCOUNTS OF THE TOWN OF SOUTHBRIDGE For the Period from December 1, 1955 to December 15, 1956
Made in Accordance with the Provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws
February 20, 1957
Mr. Herman B. Dine Director of Accounts
Department of Corporations and Taxation
State House, Boston
Sir:
As directed by you, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Southbridge for the period from Decem- ber 1, 1955, the date of the previous examination, to December 15, 1956, and report thereon as follows:
The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town or committing bills for collection, were examined and checked.
The town accountant's ledgers were analyzed, the appro- priation accounts being checked with the town meeting records of appropriations voted and with the finance committee's au- thorizations of transfers from the reserve fund. The necessary adjusting entries resulting from the audit were made, and a balance sheet, a copy of which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on Decem- ber 15, 1956.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were exam- ined and checked. The cash book was footed, the recorded re- ceipts were analyzed and compared with the records of the sev- eral departments making payments to the treasurer and with other sources from which money was paid into the town treas- ury, while the payments were checked with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds.
The cash balance on December 15, 1956 was proved by
85
reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit and by actual count of the cash in the office.
The records of employees' payroll deductions for Federal taxes, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and other insurance were examined, and the payments to the proper agencies were verified.
The maturing debt and interest payments were compared with the amounts falling due during the period covered by the audit and with the cancelled securities on file.
The records of tax titles and tax possessions held by the town were examined and listed. The amounts transferred from the tax levies to the tax title account were verified, and the re- demptions were checked with the treasurer's cash book.
The securities and savings bank books representing the investment of the trust, investment, and retirement funds in the custody of the town treasurer and the trustees were exam- ined and listed. The income was proved and the withdrawals were verified.
The books and accounts of the town collector were exam- ined and checked. The commitments of tax, excise, assess- ment, and departmental accounts were compared with the as- sessors' warrants and with the departmental records. The re- corded collections were checked with the payments to the treas- urer, the recorded abatements were compared with the asses- sors' and departmental records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the ac- countant's ledger controls.
Further verification of the outstanding tax, excise, assess- ment, and departmental accounts was made by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, and from the replies received it appears that the accounts, as listed, are correct.
The records of licenses and permits issued by the selectmen and the town clerk, as well as by the police, fire, and health de- partments, were examined and checked, and the payments to the State and the town were verified.
The surety bonds of the officials required by law to furnish them were examined and found to be in proper form.
In addition to the departments mentioned, the books and accounts of the sealer of weights and measures and of the civil defense, highway, public welfare, veterans' services, school, library, and cemetery departments were examined, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.
Appended to this report, in addition to the balance sheet, are tables showing reconciliations of the town treasurer's, town collector's, town clerk's, and library treasurer's cash, sum- maries of the tax, excise, assessment, tax title, and departmen- tal accounts, together with schedules showing the transactions

and condition of the trust, investment, and retirement funds. During the audit cooperation was received from all town officials, for which, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, I wish to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted, s/ William Schwartz Assistant Director of Accounts
