ord in 1895.

the new buildings but in the total outlay
which is in round numbers $500, 600. The
largest single expenditure is in remodel
ling the town hall, over $4,000 being ex-
pended upon the buildings and the vault
for records. The farmers and Mechan-
les Exchange building on Elliot street, up
on which work was begun last season, has
been completed at an expense of 5000
and Holden IL Martin have completed their |
new factory building on Frost street at an |
outlay of $4,000. The $4,000 or more |
which was used in building the trolley |
railroad is also part of the expenditure in !
the way of improving the town. The new
dwellings, between 10 and 80 in number,
are nearly all substantial structures, and
upon them probably at least $l50,000 has
been expended. The number of new
houses is undoubtedly larger than has ever
been built in Brattleboro in a single year,
and their average value is unusually high.
Add to the figures here given the large
sum used in making additions and i'm
provements to buildings and IL will be seen
that the 100000 figure is very easily
reached
