FORTY-FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
TOWN OFFICERS OF NORWELL,
FOR THE YEAR 1894.
To the Citizens of Norwell :-
In submitting the forty-fifth annual report of the receipts and expenditures of the town for the year 1894, we are able to present a very favorable showing, notwithstanding the fact that we have passed through a year of general business depression, and many of our towns-people have been unable to procure employment.
Our receipts from the State on account of national bank and corporation taxes are less by $640.33 than was received from this same source during the same period in 1893, owing partly, no doubt, to a decline in some corporation stocks and also to a transfer of stocks and sbares to other parties not residents of the town.
The Assessors' report also shows a decrease in the personal estate valuation, caused principally by a withdrawal of trust funds from town. In making appropriations for 1895 we should bear in mind that any increase over the present means a higher tax rate.
The unsafe condition of Union bridge was called to' the attention of the Selectmen early in the year. They referred the matter to the Road Commissioners (under whose super-
6
vision all bridges come), who held a joint meeting with the Selectmen of the town of Marshfield at the bridge. Upon examination they found the bridge very much out of repair and immediate work necessary to make it safe for public travel. The expense to the town for repairs made has not vet been received, but probably will previous to our annual meeting. Union bridge will probably be safe for a few years, but in the near future a bridge of more substantial material should replace this wooden structure.
By the election of Road Commissioners last March the highways are again under their charge. A detailed state- ment of the receipts and expenditures will be found in the report.
The expense to the town for the support of poor at the almshouse is less than for several years. Three inmates have died during the year, namely : Mary Stoddard, Sylvania Casneau and Eleazer Hatch. There are at present six in- mates. The out-door poor expense has not exceeded that of 1893, while the amount expended for soldiers' relief is $54.75, as against $242.47 expended that year. Some of the bills may appear large but were occasioned by long sickness and necessary medical attendance.
