Report of Engineers of Fire Department.


The Board of Fire Engineers submit this report.


Fires have occurred as follows:


Feb. 21, 1911, the dwelling and store of Albert Reeves in Graniteville was partially burned, caused by a defective chimney. The A. R. Choate Hose Co., No. 2, did good work in fighting the fire and saving adjoining property.


June 4, 1911, the barn of Ferdinand Le Duc in Graniteville was burned. A total loss. Value $800. Insurance, $600. Supposed incendiary.


Sept. 16, 1911, the dwelling of John Anctil in the north part of the town was burned down. Total loss. Value $1,500. Insurance $1,100. Cause, a defective chimney.


Numerous chimney fires have occurred caused by accumula- tion of soot with no serious damage.


We called attention in last year's report in regard to defective chimneys and repeat it again this year; that they ought to be thoroughly examined occasionally. Many houses have what is called a blind attic; that is, there is no access to the chimney between the ceiling of a chamber and the roof.


A scuttle hole should be cut so as to give room for a person to pass through. The insurance companies require it, as many fires start from these inaccessible places. A hand hose reel has been purchased for each hose company and is an effective addition to their equipment.


The annual try-out for the Samuels Trophy was held at Forge Village. After a spirited contest the Trophy was won by the A. R. Choate Hose Co., No 2, of Graniteville. The Judges were officers of the Lowell Fire Department, whose services this de- partment much appreciate as well as their many suggestions and help in years past.


75


Owing to the very dry summer, the members of the department have worked in unison with the Forest Warden in helping to subdue the numerous forest fires that have occurred. We would recommend that the Town raise and appropriate four hundred ($400) dollars.

MIDDLESEX, SS. WESTFORD, MASS., February 17, 1912.


Then personally appeared Charles O. Prescott and made oath that the above is a true statement of the cost of construction of the Westford Water Supply System to January 1, 1912, and of the receipts and expenditures of the Westford Water Company from January 1, 1911 to January 1, 1912, before me.

Report of Commissioners of Public Burial Grounds.


The Commissioners present the following report :


The several Cemeteries have received the usual care-but the same condition of drought has existed during the summer, as has prevailed the last three years, making it impossible to keep the lots looking fresh and green, as they otherwise would had there been plenty of rain.


The Perpetual Care Funds show an increase, six having been added since our last report.


The Commissioners would respectfully recommend that the sum of $100 be raised and appropriated for the care, and improvement of the Cemeteries the coming year.
