TOWN REPORT.
In the new part of the Cemetery several avenues have been graded, the ground between plowed and sown with winter rye. This will need to be turned under in the spring and grass seed sown.
At some time the Town should have an estimate of the cost of drainage for the lower ground made with a view of laying some tile for that purpose. This would require the services of a surveyor.
The Commissioners recommend an appropriation of $300 for all ordinary expenses.

The large balance on hand of the appropriation of five hundred dollars comes from the fact that no claims for dam- ages against the Town for taking the Wigglesworth ceme- tery property for a public park have been paid during the financial year.
Three claims have been put in for payment. The Com- missioners have had these titles examined and have sent out the necessary legal papers for signature.
This property is now owned by the Town of Hamilton as a public park. It has been transformed from a neglected cemetery into a beautiful ground for public use.
The Commissioners recommend the name of "Central Park " to be given to this property by vote of the Town.
As there will be some expenses to meet during the year we recommend an appropriation of $200.

TOWN REPORT.
Report of Committee on Water.
TO THE HONORABLE BOARD OF SELECTMEN AND CITIZENS OF THE TOWN OF HAMILTON :
Your committee appointed to investigate a water sup- ply for the Town beg leave to submit the following :
Two propositions are presented, the first and most ex- pensive would be for the Town to establish, own and oper- ate its own plant, by taking water from the Miles River Basin, at which point there is unquestionably a good and plentiful supply, but the cost would be considerable, test- ing out the wells, pumping to a stand pipe, located at the most convenient and accessible point, laying mains that would supply a good part of the Town, estimated at about seven miles, maintaining pumping station, machinery and the distribution system, not including land damages, would incur an expense approximately to $80,000 and in addition to this an efficient engineer whose salary would probably be from $80 to $100 a month. In this case the Town would have to issue bonds and pay interest annually. While this plan looks very feasible for a good and abundant supply of water, considerable trouble would probably be met with in the not far distant future from the accumulation of iron sediment which prevails to a more or less extent in all the water in the underlying strata of the Hamilton district, and a filtration plant would probably have to be installed and your committee are advised that in all probability that if later in any event a supply of water could be obtained from the City of Beverly, that this expensive plant, with the exception of the mains would most likely be abandoned.
49
TOWN REPORT.
Our second proposition is to take water from the City of Beverly, provided a satisfactory price could be obtained, and we are advised it could be. It would be necessary to lay a twelve inch main from the Beverly reservoir to the Hamilton Town line, a distance of nearly three miles, at an estimated cost of about $8,000 per mile, not including al- lowance for rock work, or for special work in taking care of Macadam roads in case the roads have to be dug up. Your committee are advised that probably the City of Bev- erly or some private parties would meet this expenditure of installing this main and that the Town would only be called upon to pay the annual interest charges probably at five per cent. If the Town of Wenham should decide to take water from this main it would reduce the cost of installing considerable to the Town of Hamilton. From the Town line the Town could put in its own distributing system as most needed, furnishing water for fire purposes in the vil- lage of South Hamilton, and also further distribution as the public may require.
Your committee regret exceedingly that they are not able at the present time to put before the Town a good straight proposition for the best and most economical way to get a water supply, but obstacles are in the way. This second proposition meets with our favor most at present, because of apparently abundant supply and less cost. The Hon. Nathan Matthews, Chairman of the Salem and Beverly Water Committee, has stated that an additional legislative act will have to be passed, and probably will be at this ses- sion of the legislature, giving this committee further power in tapping the Ipswich River at a more desirable point, and that when this is accomplished and the State Board of Health
50
TOWN REPORT.
approve, rapid progress will be made in building a dam and conserving all the surplus water, say from November to May, thereby filling both Idlewood and Wenham lakes, and giving abundant supply of good pure soft water for all who may wish to use it.
The Committee on Water, by
W. C. WARE, Secretary.
Hamilton, Mass., February 28, 1914.
Public Library Report.
I hereby submit my annual report as Librarian of the Hamilton Public Library.
Early in the year, we were sorry to learn that Hon. Augustus P. Gardner, who had served many years as Trustee and also as Treasurer of the Library, thought it necessary to announce his resignation. At the annual Town Meeting Mr. Arthur W. Chandler was elected Trustee in his stead. Mr. Reginald C. Robbins was chosen Treasurer.
No special change has been made in the management of the Library work. The "Branch Library" which was established at the store of Mr. O. J. Kimball, South Hamil- ton, has proved entirely satisfactory to the public in general. It is open for the distribution of books Tuesday and Satur- day afternoons and evenings, of each week, and the patronage has so increased that Mr. Kimball has been obliged to engage some one to assist him in the work.
51
TOWN REPORT.
I would again call the attention of the public to the suggestion-box placed in the "Gail Hamilton Reading Room." Any one who wishes to offer suggestions for the good of the Library, may do so by writing them out on paper, signing them, and dropping the paper in the box. The suggestions will then be placed before the Trustees, and if deemed advisable, will be acted upon.
Through the courtesy of the W. C. T. U., the Library was presented with a year's subscription to "The Union Sig- nal" a temperance paper which will be found on the table of the Reading Room. We wish to thank the Society for sending it.
To all those who have made gifts of books or magazines, we wish to extend thanks. These gifts indicate that the donors are interested in the work, even if they are not able to visit the Library.

Librarian.
