Claims for damages to Town property as a result of automobile accidents have been prosecuted and either settled or in the process of settlement at the present time.
I have attended on Monday evenings throughout the year regular meetings of the Board of Selectmen as provided in regulations of the Town. I have performed all professional acts required of me in the performance of the duties of my office. I have held numerous confer- ences with the many Town Boards including the building committees now functioning. I have prepared articles and motions for the Town Meetings and rendered numerous opinions for town officials and town boards, and I have had very fine cooperation from the various com- mittees and boards involved.
Respectfully submitted,
J. WARREN KILLAM, JR. Town Counsel
