As it was not possible to accurately estimate the necessary expenses of the new Town Hall, and some expenses properly chargeable to that account were charged to Incidentals, estimates on both accounts not being large enough, hence an overdraft.

AUDITOR'S REPORT
Owing to a clerical error in my report of last year, by which the Water Division balance of $1,025.06 was reported as available for transfer, instead of available for department only, and the Metropolitan Water Tax paid was $20,491.56, but estimated at only $19,000.00 in the budget, explains the overdrafts in the two Water accounts.
The other two overdrafts are unavoidable except by liberal appropriations.
The unpaid bills so far reported to me are as follows:
Water Division, $399.87
Highway Division,
1,559.70
Surface Drainage, 28.90
Health Department, 220.82
Some of these bills being for tools and equipment, although contracted in December, are proper charges against 1914 accounts.
In closing I wish to pay my humble tribute to the memory of our late Collector, Mr. Harvey S. Sears, with whom I have been so closely connected for some years. His careful and con- cientious attention to every detail of his work, strictly honest in all his dealings, his gentlemanly conduct and courteous treat- ment of every person having business with him, made him a most efficient and capable public servant whose loss I know will be felt by every citizen of our Town.
GEORGE McK. RICHARDSON, Auditor.
