ACCOUNTANT'S NOTE


The accounts of the Town of Lynnfield have been verified in the several departments, as shown in this report, all payments and receipts of the treasury are in agreement with the Accountant's Records.


All Trust funds have been examined and verified. Accounts of Tax Collector also agree with records of commitments and receipts to date.


Owing to the sudden death of Mr. Oscar E. Phillips, Town Ac- countant, early in January, 1929, it became necessary to appoint an accountant to balance accounts and prepare the Annual Town Report. If any errors or omissions have occurred, kindly call attention to same, that correction may be made.


Respecfully submitted,


GEORGE H. BANCROFT, Accountant ..
