TOWN OF' YARMOUTH - FOR TflE--- YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, MG. l'ARMOCTIIPOTIT, MASS.: PRINTED AT THE CAI'E COD I'm JOB PRIN TING OFFICE. 1887. { 1, • ittt 7o the Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth:— In presenting this, our New Year's Greeting, we desire to give to you a statement of the most important facts relating to the expenditure of money ; of our response to the call of charity without and within the Almshouse and of the provi- sion of homes for those children whose claim upon us was imperative. The aver<i_e number of inmates during the year has been fourteen and five -tenths, at an Average weekly cost of 12.25 each. Of the nineteen inmates during the earlier part of the year fourteen now remain. Hannah Crowell died in May at the age of 81 ; one has been removed and situa., thins provided for three others. Necessary repairs and improvements have been made by the enlargement of the town barn, with reference to the sanitary condition of the premises and the furnishing of more commodious facilities for storing the products of the farm. Our efforts in the interests of Alva G. Robinson were not what we had hoped, though we by no means consider them lost labors. The necessity of a guardian for the three Gardner children led to the appointment of Mr. T. T. Hallett, who, with the efficient Superintendent of the Children's Mission 1 1 4 3 • t%`: �•.{'..i _ -meq �,i 4 • in Boston, has succeeded in securing an excellent home for the youngest child and a place for the oldest where she remains on trial. The buy Charlie continues . under the excellent guardianship of the Mission. The eldest boy Fred is a hopeless case, and must, with - his mother, continue dependent for full support. • In beptember we received notice from the State Depart- ment that Herbert M: Taylor Was at the State Almshouse. and with the notice an order to'rei<nore him . We forthwith visited the State Institution, and with thegentlernanly Supt., Dr. Fisher; arranged for his immediate dischurte. A few weeks hirer he sought shelter in the Almshouse where he now remains... ,Our convictions relative to•outdoor relief remain unchang- ed. Would that we were able to provide ambition rather than pork and fish for the younger portion of this class. It is to be depict' ed that able-bodied young men have learned to feel that they have a claim upon the public larder for support. We feel that we voice the public sentiment when, in behalf of the town, wo welcome the aged and infirm to the hospital- ities of our more than comfortable asylum, also to that charity which it is our province to dispense for outdoor . relief; but we still •feel that further retrenchment is necessa- ry because of the abuse of this public hospitality. iYe hope for that healthy change of sentiment w-hieh shall help y, ung men to feel the disgrace of youthful pauperism, • 1 5 Il For the satisfaction of such as it inav interest, we append a table [ of the annual cost of supporting the poor the during past ten Sears : X r `.� n C .

THZ- TOWN OFYARMOUTH _FOR THS_ YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1858. YARMOUTHPORT, MASS.: PRINTED AT THE CAPE COD ITEM JOB PRINTING OFFICE. 1889. is • 1 REPORT' GENTLEMEN: - We have the- honor to present you with this, our yearly report, and we congratulate you upon the excellent condition of the town's finances. _ _ • . _ - -- :— The The past year in many ways has been a very satisfactory one to your Selectmen. This is especially true in regard to the department of the poor. The Ahnshouse, notwithstand- ing the loss'of its Superintendent, has, under Mrs. Sherman, lost none of its efficiency. It has at the present time but nine inmates, the smallest number for many years. Only one death has occurred during the past year. Fred Gardner died Dec. 26th, 1888. Your Overseers of the Poor have been untiring in their efforts to reduce the expenses of the charity department. They- have succeeded so well that they now recommend the raising of but two thousand dollars for the coming year for that purpose. --Due to .the requirements of the new law relating to voting, the interior of our Town -house must be materially changed. For this purpose one hundred dollars is needed. The School house in South Yarmouth should he painted and the grounds graded. This will cost about two hundred and fifty dollars. The grounds about the West Yarmouth Schoolhouse also need grading. The cost of this is estimated at seventy-five dol- lars. 4 ~� ;1 We therefore recommend that the town raise the sum of 1 five hundred dollars for the above-named and other needed improvements. • Upon an examination of the annexed report you will see that the appropriation for the repairs on public buildings was - exceeded by $260.24. The excess was caused by the neces 1' sity of painting the Schoolhouse nn the north side of the r- e '4 ' :1 town and the Almshouse the former at a cost of $148.65 and the latter at a cost of $194.54, making a total of $343.19, which was an expense not expected by your committee on appropriations last year.. The apparent excess of $95.28 in the total expenditure above the town grant is more than covered by the overlay. ings on taxes and therefore cannot be considered a debt. Trusting this report will meet with your approval, we are, Your obedient servants, STEPHEN SEARS, THACHER T. HALLET, } Selectmen: EDWARD LEWIS, POOR FROM 1879.

The Selectmen, together with the Auditors, after a careful survey of the expenditures of the several town officers for the past year, would beg leave to submit for your approval the following appropriations for r the ensuing year: Roads and Bridges, School Books, Town Officers, — Repairs on Public Buildings, Printing and Advertising, Town Debts, Support of Poor, Support of Schools, Incidentals, Interest on'Sears Fund, Transportation of Scholars, 63,800 00 500 00 1,500 00 200 00 200 00 400 00 2,300 00 4,200 00 500 00. 900 00 400 00 Total,814,900 _- The other expenses of the town, which are not provided f�r in the above recommendations, are the State and County taxes, which last year amounted to the sum of *2,931.96, and we have— no reason to believe that they will be increased this year. The income from our foreign bank tax, corporation tax, ships, school fund, etc., to offset the State and County tax, was last year *4,443,48, leaving a balance to the credit of the town of *1,511.52: In view of, these facts we would therefore regommend that .there --- be raised by taxation the sum of *13,400.00.

FINANCIAL" REPORT • OF THE 1 TOWNOFYARMQU'T.H FOB THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER .31, .041895.00 C. F SWIFT & SSON,,OUTHPOT�PRINTERS. 1896. -+'* REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1895, To THE CITIZENS OF THE TOWN OF YARMOUTH: The selectmen; in making this their ,annual report to the -town, have departed somewhat from the manner in which it has been done in former years. They have endeavored to classify more, accurately the different departments, and to make a separate report under each head. We trust this classification of accounts will enable the citizens .to more readily ascertain what has been done by the several boards of town officers. We append below in a condensed form the financial standing of the town, also giving an inventory of the real and personal estate held by it as public -property. It is a -matter of considerable satisfaction to the selectmen that they can report at this time that the expenditures for the year in the different departments have been less than the appropriations by the sum of $26.25. Public dumping ' grounds have been provided in accordance with a vote of the town at its .last annual town meeting, without additional expense. Land, has been taken -for the purpose that belonged to the town. For the information of the public we will enumerate where these grounds are located. In South Yarmouth, at the head of _ the John Crocker", road near the margin of Long Pond ; in Yarmouthporf, the gravel pit on the road leading from the old I-Ivannis road by Beach Hollow to the new Hyannis . road : min "Yarmouth, the piece of land in \lidclle Village known 'as the " Azuba lot.'.% • The town has been very fortunate in the matter of forest fires during the •year, none of any importance having occurred. 4 11111 1 11 At the last annual town meeting it was voted to divide: the town into voting precincts ; this has been done and four precincts have been made for the convenience of the voters. of • the town. During the year State roads have been under construo-• tion. A contract was made . May 9, 1895, with the Massachusetts State Highway Commission for the building of seven miles of State road in the town, four miles to be. made on the south side and three miles on the north side, the town to bear one-half of the expense of construction. During the spring and early summer and this fall work was. done under this contract, and a mile on the south side and a mile on the north side has been practically completed. On the north side an additional mile has been graded ready for the stone as soon as the spring opens. There is now at the crusher at White's Brook about 3000 tons of stone, which in the estimation of this board will be sufficient to complete the mile which is all ready to receive it. The matter of Wm. B. Cobb, which wasreferred to• _ the selectmen at the annual meeting last February, was taken under consideration by them and he was sent to Dr. Job Sweet in New Bedford for. treatment, the cost of which will be found' under his name in this report.

The cost of clearing snow was $147.50 and. the transportation of scholars $535.40, which, added to the original amount, makes a total of $16,733.90. The sum raised by taxation was $16,991.10. We have to report that on account of a loss in our personal valuation- of the estate of the late Ellen B. Eldridge, which amounted to $431,775, we were obliged- to raise the rate of taxation two dollars on a thousand this year. In our judgment this rate should go no higher, and great care and prudence should be exercised by the voters at the coming town meeting to accomplish this end. THACHER T.
