Report of Town Accountant
During the past year payments to the amount of $37,918.92 have been made on bills, approved by the various departments of the town, of which I have kept an itemized monthly account, also an itemized account of the receipts of the Town, from various sources, as rendered by the Tax Collector, Treasurer and Depart- ment heads. Have also examined all Trust Fund accounts, Records of Assessors, Tax Collector, Treasurer and other minor Town offices, all of which accounts and records appear to be correct.
I have endeavored to keep my accounts in conformity with the forms prescribed by the State Bureau of Statistics, and in so doing have found it necessary to make some changes in the ar- rangement of the Annual Report, This applies especially to what is known as our Town Expense Account. I trust, however, that the report will be found correct and that in making up ap- propriations for the coming year the same line of arrangements will be followed.

Report of Cemetery Commissioners
TO THE CITIZENS OF THE TOWN OF LYNNFIELD :-
The Cemetery Commissioners hereby submit to you the re- port of their department for the municipal year ending February 1,1913.
The Commissioners endeavor to accomplish at least one per- manent improvement each year in addition to the general work.
'This year new iron gates were placed at the entrance to the Forest Hills Cemetery. It replaces an old wooden gate, and improves the appearance of the cemetery very much.
The work on the grove at Willow Cemetery has been con- tinued, and now it is practically free from all small growth and underbrush ; in fact, the larger part of it has been burned over.
The Commissioners discussed at their last meeting the advi- sability of advancing the price of cemetery lots from ten dollars to fifteen dollars each, and have since decided to charge fifteen dollars for each lot.
The usual care has been taken to keep the cemeteries in good condition. The cemeteries have been mowed and the endowed lots well taken care of.
There are many improvements which are still necessary and, in order to carry on the work successfully. an appropriation of one hundred dollars ($100), in addition to the unexpended bal- ance, will be required. As in the past, the Commissioners are working harmoniously and earnestly in the interests of the ceme- teries.
Respectfully submitted, GEO. M. ROUNDY,
DANIEL J. MCCARTHY, H. B. PEABODY, Sec.
