OVERSEERS OF THE POOR.


ALMSHOUSE AND FARM DEPARTMENT.


At the regular meeting of the Board, held January 15th, Mr. Benjamin F. Parkhurst and wife were, by a unanimous vote, elected Superintendent and Matron of the City Alms- house and Farm, to take the places of Mr. and Mrs. John Farwell, on the 1st of April; they having sent in their resigna- tion to take effect on that date. The salary for their services was fixed at nine hundred dollars, and they have filled the place to the entire satisfaction of every member of the Board, and the city is to be congratulated in their having been so fortunate in the selection of parties well qualified for so important a position. It is much to the credit of Mr. and Mrs. Parkhurst that they have been able to sustain the reputation for economy and good management, so long and favorably held by their predecessors.


The Farm Buildings have been kept in their usual good condition, and many improvements have been made in the interior arrangements of the Almshouse, to meet the demands . of our large and growing family. The large hall, so long and favorably known to many who have been wont to pay a yearly visit to the institution, has been divided, thereby giving one large room on the rear side of the building for a dormitory for the truant boys, while the west end has been made into a convenient school room, and the rest finished up into sleeping rooms, and a good entrance to the whole. By this arrangement the school is now located entirely on the lower floor, thereby giving the entire second floor of the west end to the female inmates, and allowing the rear room in the main building, formerly occupied as the Truant School Room, and adjoining the Hospital Room, to be used for the same purpose.


A large furnace has been placed in the basement, to warm the whole building, doing away with the necessity of using stoves, and making the risk from fire much less than it has been.


The dining room formerly used by the Superintendent's family has been appropriated for the use of the female inmates, who are now kept in the west end of the building, instead of


100

being in the same part occupied by the men, as formerly. What was the East Parlor has been divided, making suitable closets and a dining room for the Superintendent's family, and the basement under the same has been finished and fitted up as an office, as there has heretofore been no suitable place on the premises for the same.


The new well dug last year on the Curtis lot has been connected with the two others there by an inch and a half pipe, and has much increased the supply of water, which, on account of increased demands had been insufficient, and it is now confidently hoped there will be enough for all ordinary needs for some time to come, although it could not be relied upon for supply in case of fire. We would, therefore, again call your attention to our recommendation of last year, that the Fire Alarm be extended to the Farm, by way of Lincoln St., and continue the return circuit by way of the new Insane Hospital and Bloomingdale.


The lot has also been much improved for the purpose of water shed, for which it was purchased, by its having been graded and cleared from stones, a large quantity of which have been removed, and many worked up in the construction of stone walls on other parts of the farm.


The Small Pox Hospital has been thoroughly painted, inside and out, a set of window blinds and two ventilators have been added to the building, which are calculated to add much to the comfort and convenience of any one so unfortunate as to be obliged to sojourn there ; but although it is in perfect readiness for occupation, the city has been spared the necessity, as well as the expense of sending any one there, as not a single case of the dread disease, in any form, has presented itself during the year.


The woodshed in the rear of the main building, has been turned around at right angles with its former position, and moved back, and a wagon-shed, which was much needed for the protection from the weather of the farm vehicles, added to it ; thereby enclosing a spacious yard, in the rear of the building, which has been graded so as to secure perfect drainage of the premises, turning the same on to a side hill in rear of the barn,


101


OVERSEERS OF THE POOR.


where it has, together with the sewage from the buildings, been used in irrigation.


The products of the Farm for the year have been good, with the exception of the potato crop, which, although given extra attention, proved very nearly a total failure, on account of the ravages of the Colorado beetle. A more than average crop of hay has been secured and the stimulating effect of the liberal dressing of the land, which we are now able to provide from our extensive piggery, maks itself seen in every field; and the crops of corn and vegetables would compare favorably with those of the best farms in our vicinity.


On the 17th of September, charges of extravagance in his purchases by the Superintendent of the Almshouse, were made by the Alderman for Ward One, before the City Council; and by his request, an investigation of the management and expenditures of the whole Pauper Department was ordered to be made by a committee, consisting of two Aldermen and three Common Councilmen, of which he acted as Chairman.


After as thorough an examination at the Almshouse, Truant School, and Office of the Clerk of the Board, as they were able to make, the above charges were shown to be entirely groundless. As a report on the same was called for, however, one was presented, made by himself, but offering no recom- mendations respecting the subject of his investigations.


On Tuesday, Oct. 30th, 1877, a special meeting of the Board was called, for the purpose of making the annual inspection at the City Farm, and as the Board had decided that the annual dinner which has usually taken place at this time, should, for several reasons be omitted this year, the Board met at the Almshouse at two o'clock, P. M., and there were present Messrs. Pratt, Marble, Hartshorn, Draper, Rugg, Geer and Gale.


A general examination of the whole premises, both inside the buildings and outside, was made, and the entire approval of the Board was given to the Superintendent and Matron for the manner in which their duties had been discharged, and for the general good order and neatness apparent in every department, and a vote of thanks was unanimously passed by the Board for the same.

The Board also visited the Cemetery, and voted to instruct the Superintendent to thin out and trim up the circle of pine trees with which it is surrounded, also to have it surveyed and a map made, showing the graves of the several persons buried there, and that they be marked by some suitable device, and numbered, and that the same be recorded in the Almshouse Register, in order that, if necessary, they may at any future time be recognized.


Tuesday, November 20th, 1877, the Board of Overseers of the Poor, with the Board of Assessors and Superintendent of Public Buildings, met at the City Almshouse for the purpose of making the annual appraisal of the property there, and the various committees, under the direction of the clerk, proceeded at once to the work assigned them, and after completing the same, met in the Superintendent's office and made the following report :-

The number of Paupers at the Almshouse on the last day of November, was fifty-nine, the same number as in our report of last year, but during a part of the year it has been as high as seventy-two, which was the largest number ever in the institution, and more than double what were there a few years since. A descriptive list of them is here annexed.
