meet the expenses of the water works
The commissioners expressed their obi
cations to Mr.. Foster for his valued as
Sistance in the work and his very moder
ate charges vote of thanks was eX
tended to the commissioners. and a re
co9nitiOn made of the efficient work done
by Frank Abair of Montpelier, Mr.. Eos
ter'S pipe-layer, and to L q. Collision
and Israel Brooks of this village, for the
thorough work done in laying the pipe.
We think the village has occasion tC
congratulate itself in the fact that it has
been able to put in so efficient and thor
ough a system of works for so small a
sum of money; and we predict that after
the small tax already voted is paid, the
expense of the works, both present and
future will not be felt. The advantage
of better fire protection, lower rates of
insurance and an abundance of good, soft
water for every purpose on the premises
of every renter. will be such that the
people will consider the water works the
best investment ever made by the village.
