In examining the Warden's accounts for the past year, the Auditors find that the affairs of the Almshouse continue to be conducted with the same careful fidelity and scrupulous regard for the best interests both of the Town and of the unfortunate poor, who are dependent upon its charity, which has always been so characteristic of the present Ward- en's management.


The citizens of the town are to be congratulated on being able to secure the services of the same Warden and Matron for the ensuing year.
