The Warden has managed the financial affairs of the Alms- house department remarkably well the past year ; the cost of supporting the establishment having been but $53.98 more than last year.
The citizens of the Town have occasion for much gratitude to the Warden and his wife for their continued interest in those under their care, and for such success as can be the result only of experience and industry.
