POLICE.


The sum recommended for this purpose is still an ad- vance on that of any previous year, and is made necessary


76


by the appointment of a policeman at the North Village and Newtonville, where we have had considerable trouble the past year, and shall be likely to have, while the State is tinkering the Liquor Law. The police department, forming as it does an important branch of the town government, and requiring additional appropriations annually, should be made more effective. The force should be organized by the appointment of a chief, who shall have the direction of the movements of the force, and who shall be directly re- sponsible to the selectmen, from whom he would receive his orders, for a monthly report of the doings of the whole force. This would enable them to judge more correctly the importance of maintaining a police permanently in this or that place. As the expense of this department is contin- gent on circumstances, we recommend that the sum of five thousand dollars be appropriated for this purpose, and placed at the disposal of the selectmen.


TOWN HALL.


This building, located at West Newton, affords the peo- ple living there privileges of which others cannot so well avail themselves. We are frequently asked to allow the free use of the hall for various purposes ; and we have fixed a price for all local lyceums, fairs, festivals, and the like, at a sum only sufficient to pay the expense of heating, light- ing, and taking care of, the building. For horticultural and agricultural purposes, the free use of the hall has been al- lowed. We have rented the hall for various other purposes, such as were proper to be admitted, and have received the sum of $678.50, which has been paid to the town treasurer ; and there is now due $127.00.


In accordance with a vote of the town, rooms have been fitted up in the basement of the building for the use of the town officers. One is used by the police officer, one by the sealer of weights and measures, one by the assessors, and another by the selectmen and treasurer. We have fur-


77


nished these rooms with all that is necessary for the con- venience of the several officers, and have procured two large safes for the preservation of the town papers.


We invite our citizens to carefully examine the Auditors' Report, where they will find a clear statement of our liabili- ties and assets, and a detailed account of all the expenses of the town the past year.


Respectfully submitted,


THOMAS RICE, JUN., GEORGE E. BRIDGES, WILLIAM B. FOWLE, ISAAC F. KINGSBURY, JOHN C. STANTON, MARCUS T. HEYWOOD, OTIS PETTEE,


Selectmen of Newton.


NEWTON, Feb. 13, 1871.


REPORT OF ENGINEERS


OF THE


FIRE DEPARTMENT.


THE rapid growth of the town shows us the necessity of some change in this department. The fire-apparatus belonging to the town is in good working-order ; and the firemen, as a class, know their duty, and deserve much credit for their promptness and zeal. As we progress from year to year, it will soon be found very difficult to keep up an efficient hand-department: there are now but few that like to run for the fun of it ; and we shall soon be obliged to exchange muscle for steam. We think it advisable to have two or three more steam fire-engines in town. Per- haps it would not be best to purchase them all at once; but one might be purchased yearly, until we have a full de- partment. We would recommend the purchase of one to be located at West Newton the coming season. We also think it desirable to have a fire-alarm telegraph in town. We think it would make a great saving in the wear of the fire-apparatus, and also save a great deal of running and unnecessary disturbance.


NEWTON, NO. 1. - STEAMER.


Has done excellent service during the year. There is a good company of fifteen men attached ; and they deserve much credit for their efficiency and promptness at fires. They turned out to fifteen fires, have worked at six, and were called out to four alarms of fire.


79


CATARACT, NO. 1. - NEWTON LOWER FALLS.


She is in good condition. Has a company of sixty men. They are prompt and faithful in duty. They have been to nine fires, and turned out to seven alarms.


MONITOR, NO. 2. - AUBURNDALE.


This is a chemical fire-engine. It has an efficient com- pany of fifteen men, including officers. They have been to two brush-fires, and turned out to two alarms.


The engine is in good working-order.


TRITON, NO. 3. - WEST NEWTON.


Has a full company. Is in good working condition, and has done good service the past year. They have been to seven fires, and turned out to three alarms.


MECHANIC, NO. 4. - NEWTON UPPER FALLS.


They have a good company, and are always ready and willing to do their duty. They have turned out to eleven fires, worked at four, and also turned out to one alarm.


NONANTUM, NO. 5. - NEWTON CORNER.


This engine has no company, but is in good working- order, and is kept as a relief engine at that village.


EMPIRE, NO. 5. - NEWTON CORNER.


We consider her of no use to the town; and we recom- mend that she be sold, and also the house built for her.


EAGLE, NO. 6. - NEWTON CENTRE.


This engine has been put in thorough repair the past year. They have a good company, and hold themselves in readiness for duty anywhere in town. They have turned out to four fires, worked at two, and turned out to three alarms.


80


VOLUNTEER HOOK AND LADDER, NO. 3- WEST NEWTON.


This is a volunteer organization, furnishing their own carriage, and using the town hooks and ladders, under the direction of the board of engineers. They have been or- ganized about four months ; have worked at two fires, and turned out to three alarms.


We would state in this connection, that we consider a hook and ladder carriage, properly managed, a very impor- tant branch of the service, and would recommend two or more to be purchased, and located in different parts of the town.


The police department have been on hand at the fires during the year, and have aided us in keeping order, and in the protection of property.


R. M. LUCAS, Chief Engineer. WEST NEWTON, Feb. 1, 1871.


REGISTRAR'S REPORT FOR 1870.


THE following statistics of births, intentions of mar- riage, marriages, and deaths, in Newton, prepared by the clerk, are for the year 1870, beginning with Jan. 1, and ending with Dec. 31.

There were 34 others recorded; mostly those who were born in other places, and had removed to Newton previous to the time of taking the registration. Most of these would have no record at all, if not recorded here.


There were three pairs of twins born in Newton in 1870.


The least number of births in any one month was 13, in April.


The greatest number was 36, in December.

INTENTIONS OF MARRIAGE.


The whole number of couples who received certificates was 136


In which both parties belonged to Newton 63=126 persons


In which but one party belonged to Newton 73= 73 66


199 66


Making 199 persons who entered their intentions, and re- ceived certificates, and who were probably all married : 35 persons more than during the year 1869.


The record of intentions of marriage shows the true number of persons who are married; the law requiring a certificate from the city or town clerk where each party resides.


While it belongs to the city or town clerk to obtain the answers to the legal questions upon the certificates, it belongs to the parties who perform the marriages to know that two certificates are obtained by the parties to be married, if they reside in two different towns or cities in this Commonwealth.


MARRIAGES.


The whole number of marriages recorded in Newton for 1870 is 125; 16 couples more than in 1869.


In which one or both parties belonged to Newton .. 115 In which neither party belonged to Newton . 10


The greatest number of marriages in any one month was 18, in September; and the same in November: the least number was 4, in March.


The first marriage of 229 persons. The second

One marriage which took place 1869 was also recorded ; the certificate not having been returned in season to get it into my return last year.


DEATHS.


The whole number of deaths recorded in Newton for the year 1870 is 133; which is 5 less than in 1869.


The oldest person who died in Newton during the year was Sarah Ayres, 98 years, 5 months, 23 days old.

According to the census taken last year, our population is 12,825. If sextons, and those who have buried friends without employing sextons, have faithfully returned all the deaths, the facts show one death in about ninety-six and one-half of our population, which is the least proportionate number of deaths in Newton, I think, since the present registration law was enacted, -now about twenty-three years.


The number of deaths in Newton the past year by con- sumption, compared with the whole number of deaths, was one in about eight and seven-eighths; year before, one in eight and three-fourths, - a trifle of gain over the previous year.


Consumption still leads among the various diseases, and


84


perhaps always will, in New England; but our records show a large decrease of the proportional number of deaths by that disease, within a few years, as the following will show : -


In the years 1858 and 1859, about one in four of all the deaths in Newton, were by consumption; in 1860 and 1861, one in six and one-half ; in 1862 and 1863, about one in seven ; in 1864 and 1865, about one in six ; in 1866 and 1867, one in five and three-fourths; in 1868 and 1869, about one in eight and three-fourths; and in 1870, one in eight and seven-eighths. It will be seen that about one- half of the proportionate number of deaths by consump- tion twelve years ago have not taken place for the past two years.


It is believed that this favorable change has been caused in a large degree by better protecting the feet from cold and wet.


This favorable result should encourage us all to be vigi- lant in guarding against the first attacks of this disease, which is more to be dreaded, really, than the small-pox or cholera.


POPULATION AND MORTALITY IN NEWTON FOR ELEVEN YEARS PAST.


The following table is very nearly correct : -

By the foregoing table, it appears, that for ten years pre- ceding last year, on an average, the number of deaths in


85


Newton, compared with the population, was one in seven- ty-four ; last year, one in ninety-six and one-half. The average mortality of our State has usually been about one in fifty-four. Truly we live in a highly-favored section of our noble Commonwealth; and we need not wonder that gentlemen doing business in Boston prefer our pleasant villages for their homes.


Notwithstanding Newton is one of the most healthy towns in our land, yet its inhabitants die ; and it is proba- ble that one hundred and fifty, at least, of our town, now living, will need a quiet, pleasant resting-place from the toils and cares of life, before the present year shall close : and perhaps one-half the heads of families, from which loved ones will be removed during this year, while they may have well prepared a home for the living, have thus far neglect- ed to prepare one for the dead. We invite such to visit our


NEWTON CEMETERY.


The new entrance is nearly completed; and, after a few trees have been placed by its borders, we believe it will compare favorably with any other in this vicinity.


There are about fifty lots, of different sizes, now graded, and ready for use. A number of lots have been located on the northerly and easterly sides of the Soldiers' Monument Lot, which are as desirable as any in the cemetery. There will be a good opportunity the coming spring to select satisfactory lots ; and those who have selected and prepared homes among us are invited to join us in this necessary and laudable undertaking, and have family lots in their own town.
