To the Citizens of the Muria of Yarmouth: — * In submitting our annual report, your Selectmen (in addition to statement of accounts) .would say, that in the capacity of Over- seers of the Poor they have made a claim upou the estate of the heirs of John Gorham. and sold the homestead in the interest of the town. There yet remains two lots of young wood; consisting one of five acres and one of two aures, situated on Parker's Neck, . which are yet unsold. We have also taken a warrantee deed of the estate of Gorham Taylor, situated near -the Almshouse, and have laid a claim upon the dwelling -house of James Chase, which vet remains unsettled. These elauus are made by virtue of assis- - .tance rendered to the above parties in response- to• their call. The number of inmates provided for in the Almshouse during the past year has averaged thirteen, all of whom have received care- ful :attention. The cost of out -door relief though' somewhat di- minished is yet, in our opinion, above what is absolutely necessary. ti1;I'PORT OF THE POOR IN THE AL.MSHOU$E.
