it is said to be uu collectable ; also, the amount of seven hundred forty-three

Your Committee are unanimous in the opinion that the Farm
is well managed; and the prudent management of the household
affairs reflects much credit on the Superintendent and Matron, Mr.
and Mrs. Gilman. Owing to the lighter hay crop last season than
usual the stock has been reduced some on the Farm which makes
87
the personal property somewhat lower than last year, but the rise
in value on real estate and the stone quarries in this vicinity more
than balances the deficit. For this reason your Committee have
seen fit to raise the valuation of the Farm. During the year past
the Superintendent has made several improvements on the build-
ings painting them, &c., which he has paid for ofi" the Farm.
He has also laid out on the highway the sum of $92,25 for which
he has also paid from the Farm and It should stand to his credit.
Your Committee do not feel to close their report without speaking,
of the stone quarries on the Farm. They should be looked after
more strictly than they have been. There has been much lawless
trespassing of late in getting stone ofiP the Farm which should be
stopped until the parties enter into a written agreement with the
city authorities to get stone from the various quarries on the Farm.
The city gets but V(^f'y little for the stone takeii from the quarries.
They should have as much as other people have in this vicinity for
the same quality of stone. As a whole, every thing else on the
premises looks well for the city.

CHIEP ENGINEER'S REPORT,
To His Honor the Ilayor and the Board of Aldermen :
The Eire Department have been called out during the year end-
ing Feb. 1, 1867, as follows :

troyed three dwelling-houses adjoining. Loss, $15,000.00. In-
sured, $10,500.00.

Nov. 14. Fire at Downing k Sons. Loss, $900.00. Insured,
$600,00.
H. H. & J. S. Brown.
Nov. 29. Fire at Penacook mills, Fisherville, Loss, $40,000.
Fully insured.
Jan. 23, 1867. Fire at the Widow Merrill house, Main street.
Damage, $2,500.00. Insured, $1,815.00.
There has been purchased during the past year one second-class
steam fire engine, a hose carriage, and nine hundred and fifty feet
43
of engine hose, wliicli are now temporarily located at the engine
house on Warren street.
There has been one reservoir built during the past year on
South street.
I would again call the attention of the City Council to the fact
that we are still very deficient in water, and repeat what I said in
my last annual Report in relation to that matter.
The engine house, &c., on Warren street is entirely unfit for the
purposes for which it is used, and a new one is imperatively
demanded, suitable for the accommodation of the steamers. Con-
siderable feeling has been and still is manifest by our citizens as
to a suitable location. Any central location where there is room
enough, is all that is desired, as we can reach any part of the main
village while the engines are being heated up, about from seven to
ten minutes being necessary for that purpose. It would certainly
be desirable to have the Fire Department by itself, if it can be
without incurring any considerable additional expense.
There has been added to the Department an Eagine company
(Steamer Kearsarge) of twelve men, and a Hydrant and Hose
company of ten men, composed of men, at the Northern Railroad
shops, to use the force pump in that locality, and to act in union
with Hydrant and Hose No. 1.
Early in May of last year, the Committee of the Fire Depart-
ment of the City Council, and myself, A. B. Holt and John M.
Hill, of the Board of Engineers, were instructed to examine into
the situation and wants of the Fire Department of the main village.
After due consideration, a report was made, which is now on file
in the office of the City Clerk. Thcs recommendations of the Com-
mittee since that report have been adopted in part, two new com-
panies having been formed, but no reduction in any branch of the
force has been made.
Having bee>). connected with the Concord Fire Department for
a period of thirty-six years, and with the Board of Engineers nearly
the whole time since its organization, I think it is time that I
should retire, and am therefore not a candidate for re-appointment
to the position which I now hold.
I am under renewed obligation to the Board of Engineers for
their efficient aid during the past year, and to the members of the
several Fire Companies for the promptness with which they have
44
performed their respective duties, sometimes under very trying
circumstances. And I would here say to all, both firemen and
citizens, that if I have done anything as Engineer that may have
seemed harsh or unkind, I most sincerely regret it, and trust it
will be put down as an error of judgment rather than a want of
courtesy on my part. In taking leave of the Department in an
official capacity, I beg to assure you that I shall look back with
pleasure to the many pleasant and social meetings which we have
had together, and shall still feel a deep interest in the efficiency of
that Department with which I have been connected for the greater
portion of my life, and that whatever I may be able to do here-
after for its efficiency will be done most cheerfully.
Respectfully submitted,

Total Receipts from sale of lots, $6,228,49
•This amount has been expended partly in payments made from
time to time upon the notes given for the cemetery grounds and
partly for their laying out and improvement, with the exception of
one hundred and two dollars and seventy-three cents, of which sum
sixty dollars is now in the hands of the Superintendent of the
Cemetery and the balance is in the city treasury, subject to the
draft of the Committee.
The amount now due on notes given by the city for the purchase
of the Cemetery, is thirty-nine hundred and sixty-five dollars,
(3.965). As one-half of the receipts from the sale of lots is an-
nually appropriated to the payment of the interest and principal of
this debt, it is hoped that its entire liquidation may be reached at
a day not far distant.
During the past year, important improvements have been made
by the Committee upon the paths and grounds of the Cemetery.
Lots, to a considerable number, have also been graded, enclosed
and embellished by their proprietors.

Your Committee respectfully submit the following Report of the

Your Committee are of opinion that further improvements should
be made during the coming season, if we would save those already
made, which cannot be done with the limited means now in their
possession. They also deem it essential that the citizens in that
portion of the city should manifest more interest in regard to this
matter than they have hitherto done, in order to secure the com-
pletion of the work.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.
To the City Council of the City of Concord :
The undersigned Trustees of the Public Library of the City of
Concord, have the satisfaction of reporting the continued prosperity
of the institution. Every year adds to the favorable estimation in
which it is held by the community. But its capacity for good is
much crippled by its lack of financial means. It has not the money
wherewith to place upon its shelves many volumes, yearly, that
ought to be found there. We must again urge, as it has been re-
peatedly urged in former reports, that the appropriation for the City
Library be increased.
During the past year, there have been added to the Library one
hundred and seventy-four volumes by purchase, and thirty-tiuo by
donation. The names of the donors and the number of volumes
contributed by each, are as follows : Hon. George Gr. Fogg, 7 ;
Hon. Edward H. Rollins, 6 ; N. H. Historical Society, 5 ; Adj't
Gen. Natt. Head, 3 ; Capt. William F. Goodwin, 1 ; Adj't Gen.
N. B. Baker, of Iowa, 2; Concord Reading Class, 2; Mrs. J. A.
Eames, 2 ; E. C, Eastman, 1 ; Dr. J. H. Gallinger, 1 ; Gen.
Robert Patterson, 2. Tiue^ity- eight worn-out volumes have also
been replaced by new ones. The number of subscribers, during
the year, has been six hundred and forty -nine.
The accompanying report of the Treasurer shows the financial
condition of the institution.
