REPORT OF THE BOARD OF ASSESSORS.


The subscribed members of the Board of Assessors submit the following report for the year 1904.


Mr. Lucian C. Tyler who has been a member of this Board since 1894, died on September twenty-third. He was a man of good judgment, honest, conscientious and courteous, always interested in his work, his loss will long be felt by his associ- ates and the Town.


During the past year we believe the Town has made in com- parison to the neighboring towns a satisfactory growth. While personal property, the assessment of which is the hardest duty of the assessor, shows a decrease from last year, still the total valuation of the Town has increased some fourteen per cent. in five years.
