town voted 70 have the Auditors report
for the coming year printed and ready for
distribution on or before February 25th
1878, a step that the town has not taken
in previous years. BY the Treasurer

balance in the treasury. According to
the report Of the Overseer Of the Poor, il
appeared that the cost of supporting the
poor for the past year was less than ST..
