A  constant  watch  is  kept  at  the  office,  City  Hall,  night  and

terms,  of  three  hours  each,  as  principal,  and  the  same  as  assist- 


88  MUNICIPAL   REGISTER. 

ant  operator ;  so  that  twelve  hours'  service  at  the  office,  out  of 
every  twenty-four,  is  required  from  each  operator.  No  operator 
is  permitted  to  sleep  during  his  watch,  unless  expressly  relieved 
by  some  one  else,  and  by  consent  of  the  Superintendent. 

Each  operator  is  accountable  to  the  Superintendent  for 
any  mistakes  that  may  occur  at  the  office  during  his  hours  of 
duty. 

An  accurate  account  is  kept  of  the  time  of  giving  each  alarm, 
and  of  the  station  from  which  it  originates,  and  all  other  neces- 
sary information. 

Alarms  are  transmitted  to  the  Central  Office,  from  the  Signal 
Stations  or  Boxes,  by  pulling  a  slide  in  the  Box.  The  police 
officers,  and  one  other  person  resident  near  each  station,  have 
keys  to  the  Boxes. 

The  ringing  of  the  bells  and  the  tapping  of  the  Boxes,  each 
denotes  the  number  of  the  Station  from  which  the  alarm  origi- 
nated :  thus,  —  one  blow,  a  pause,  three  blows,  another  pause 
and  two  blows  (1  —  3  —  2)  indicates  that  the  alarm  came  from 
Box  No.  132. 

Alarms  are  usually  given  in  less  than  a  minute  from  the  time 
the  Box  is  operated. 

DIRECTIONS  TO  THOSE  WHO  HOLD  SIGNAL  KEYS. 

1.  If  a  fire  is  discovered  in  your  vicinity,  go  to  the  nearest 
Box. 

2.  Pull  the  slide  all  the  way  down  and  let  go.  Wait  at  the 
Box,  and  direct  the  firemen  to  the  fire. 

3.  If  you  hear  no  reply  at  the  Box,  or  on  the  bells,  pull 
again.     If  still  no  reply,  go  to  another  Box. 

4.  The  police,  upon  hearing  the  bells,  will  spring  their  rat- 
tles and  call  the  number  of  the  station. 

CAUTIONS. 

1.  Be  sure  your  Box  is  locked  before  leaving  it. 

2.  Never  open  the  Box,  except  in  cases  of  fire.

CITY  HOSPITAL. 

The  City  Hospital  is  situated  on  Harrison  avenue,  between 
Springfield  and  Concord  streets,  and  was  commenced  in  1851 ; 
and  consists  of  two  pavilions  connected  with  a  central  structure. 
This  Hospital  is  intended  for  the  use  and  comfort  of  poor 
patients,  to  whom  medical  care  will  be  provided  at  the  expense 
of  the  city ;  and  it  is  also  intended  to  provide  accommodations 
and  medical  treatment  to  others  who  do  not  wish  to  be  re- 
garded as  dependent  on  public  charity. 

The  Hospital  was  suggested  many  years  ago  by  Elisha 
Goodnow,  who,  by  his  will,  dated  July  12,  1849,  gave  property 


PUBLIC   CHARITABLE   INSTITUTIONS.  101 

to  the  city,  valued  at  $25,000,  for  establishment  of  a  Free  City 
Hospital  in  Ward  Eleven  or  Twelve, 

Another  benefactor  to  the  Hospital  was  the  late  Lawrence 
Nichols,  who  bequeated  to  the  city,  for  the  use  of  the  City 
Hospital,  the  sum  of  $1,000. 

Hon.  Otis  Norcross  has  given  to  the  city  a  Fund  of  $2,000, 
to  which  has  been  added  a  bequest  of  $1,000  by  the  late  Jonas 
Ball,  the  interest  of  which  is  expended  annually  in  furnishing 
clothing  to  indigent  patients  when  leaving  the  Hospital, 

Applications  for  admission  of  patients  may  be  made  at  the 
Hospital  on  each  day  of  the  week,  Sundays  excepted,  between 
9  and  11  o'clock,  A.  M. 

Whenever  able,  the  patient  should  apply  in  person.  When 
not  able  to  appear  in  person,  application  may  be  made  by  a 
friend,  and  the  patient  will  be  visited  by  one  of  the  resident 
graduates,  or  by  some  physician  designated  by  the  Trustees. 

Persons  accidentally  wounded,  or  otherwise  disabled  or  in- 
jured, shall  be  received  at  all  hours,

Although  the  need  of  a  public  library  had  been  for  a  consid- 
erable time  felt  and  acknowledged,  and  a  small  number  of  vol- 
umes of  a  miscellaneous  character  had  been  sent  to  the  City  Hall 
with  a  view  to  the  future  formation  of  such  an  in  stitution,  noth. 
ing  definite  in  relation  thereto  was  done  until  the  fifth  of  August, 
1850,  when  Hon.  John  P.  Bigelow,  then  Mayor  of  the  city,  con- 
tributed the  sum  of  one  thousand  dollars  for  the  purpose  of 
establishing  the  Public  Library.  This  donation,  being  the  first 
money  that  was  given  for  the  object,  was  received  joyfully,  and 
founded  by  the  City  Council;  and  the  Committee  on  the  Library 
were  directed  "  to  proceed  with  as  little  delay  as  possible  to 
carry  into  effect  the  establishment  of  a  free  Public  Library." 

Joshua  Bates,  Esq.,  of  London,  whose  early  life  was  passed 
in  Boston,  having  offered  to  this  city  the  munificent  sum  of  fifty 
thousand  dollars,  towards  the  purchase  of  books  for  the  Public 
Library  of  the  city,  if  the  city  would  erect  a  suitable  building 
for  that  purpose,  —  on  the  24th   of  February,  1853,  an  order 


PUBLIC   LIBRARY.  107 

was  passed  by  the  city  council  authorizing  the  committee  on 
the  library,  in  conference  with  the  board  of  trustees,  to  pur- 
chase a  suitable  site  for  the  erection  of  a  building  which  should 
be  fully  adapted  for  the  purpose  of  the  library,  including  Mr. 
Bates's  donation.  Accordingly,  said  committee  purchased 
23,380  feet  of  land  on  Boylston  street,  opposite  the  Common, 
upon  which  an  elegant  and  commodious  edifice  has  been  erected, 
at  a  cost  to  the  city,  for  land  and  building,  amounting  to  about 
$365,000. 

This  building  was  finished  and  delivered  into  the  custody  of 
the  city  council,  and  by  the  city  council  was  transmitted  to 
the  care  of  the  trustees  of  the  public  library,  with  appropriate 
ceremonies,  on  January  1,  1858. 

Besides  the  above  mentioned  donations  in  money,  the  sum  of 
ten  thousand  dollars  was  subsequently  given  by  Hon.  Jonathan 
Phillips,  who,  by  his  will,  hequeathed  an  additional  sum  of 
twenty  thousand  dollars  for  the  maintenance  of  the  library. 
Another  sum  of  ten  thousand  dollars  was  bequeathed  by  the  late 
Hon.  Abbott  Lawrence.  All  of  these  sums  have  been  funded 
by  the  city  council,  and  the  annual  proceeds  are  expended  for 
the  purchase  of  books  of  permanent  value. 

The  sum  of  one  thousand  dollars  was  given  by  the  late  Samuel 
Appleton,  Esq.,  and  the  same  amount  by  Mrs.  Sally  I.  K. 
Shepaed,  for  the  purpose  of  procuring  books  for  the  immediate 
use  of  the  public. 

Very  valuable  donations  of  boohs  have  been  made  by  the 
late  Rev.  Theodore  Parker,  the  heirs  of  Hon.  Nathaniel  Bow- 
ditch,  George  Ticknor,  and  others. 

By  the  munificence  of  Thomas  G-.  Appleton,  Esq.,  of  Boston, 
the  very  rich  and  valuable  collection  of  engravings,  formerly 
belonging  to  Cardinal  Tosti  of  Rome,  now  deceased,  was 
purchased  and  presented  to  the  Public  Library.  The  collection 
contains  nearly  10,000  prints,  many  of  which  are  framed. 

The  Library  opens   at  9  o'clock,  A.  M.,  every  secular   day

than  in  any  former  year.     There  were  not  less  than  eight  several

ballotings  by  the  citizens.  At  the  eighth  trial,  on  the  twenty-first 
of  February,  Thomas  A.  Davis  was  elected. 

In  the  mean  time,  from  January  to  February  27,  1845,  Wil- 
liam Parker,  one  of  the  aldermen,  having  been  elected  chairman 
of  the  board  of  aldermen,  performed  the  duties  of  mayor. 

On  the  sixth  of  October,  Thomas  A.  Davis,  being  in  declining 
health,  resigned  the  office  of  mayor,  which  resignation,  however, 
was  not  accepted  by  the  city  council,*  and  on  the  twenty-second 
of  November  he  died,  being  the  first  mayor  who  has  died  in  office 
since  the  organization  of  the  city  government  in  1822. 

On  the  11th  of  December,  Josiah  Quincy,  jr.,  was  elected 
mayor  by  the  city  council,  for  the  unexpired  term  of  1845. 

Benson  Leavitt,  one  of  the  board  of  aldermen,  acted  as  chair- 
man of  the  board  in  the  interval  between  the  death  of  Mr.  Davis 
and  the  election  of  Mr.  Quincy. 

In  1851,  Benjamin  Seaver,  having  already  been  elected  an 
alderman  of  the  city  for  1852,  was  afterwards  chosen  mayor  for 
said  year. 

At  the  commencement  of  the  ensuing  municipal  year,  1852,  he 
resigned  as  an  alderman,  and  accepted  the  office  of  mayor. 

The  election  of  mayor  for  1854  was  continued  through  three 
ballotings,  from  December  12,  1853,  to  January  9,  1854.  In 
the  mean  time,  the  duties  of  mayor  were  performed  by  Benjamin 
L.  Allen,  chairman  of  the  board  of  aldermen. 

ALDERMEN.

tion.

In  1 848  George  E.  Head  resigned,  and  was  afterwards  chosen 
one  of  the  Principal  Assessors. 

In  1853  Lyman  Perry,  Esq.,  who  had  been  duly  elected  an 
Alderman,  died  before  his  qualification. 

Iu  1856  Levi  B.  Meriam,  Esq.,  died  while  in  office. 

In  1858  Rufus  B.  Bradford  resigned,  and  was  afterwards 
appointed  Measurer  of  Grain. 

In  1859  Timothy  A.  Sumner,  Esq.,  resigned  on  account  of 
illness,  and  soon  afterwards  died. 

At  the  municipal  election  in  1852,  nine  Aldermen  had  a  ma- 
jority of  ballots ;  but  in  accordance  with  the  statute,  the  eight 
who  had  the  highest  number  of  votes  were  declared  elected. 

The  Municipal  Government  for  1855  was  the  first  one  that 
was  organized  under  the  new  or  revised  City  Charter,  which 
provided  for  the  annual  election  of  twelve  Aldermen. 

For  reports  of  contested  seats  in  the  Board  of  Aldermen,  see

The  Junior  of  William  B.  Fowle,  omitted  in  1865. 

Ezra  Forristall,  Ward  6,  resigned  in  May,  1853,  and  was 
elected  Superintendent  of  Health. 

Daniel  -J  Coburn,  Ward  5,  resigned  in  April,  1855,  and  was 
thereafter  appointed  Chief  of  Police. 

Edward  P.  Robinson  resigned  in  May,  1861,  and  was  elected 
a  Principal  Assessor. 

Charles  J.  McCarthy,  Ward  7,  resigned  in  March,  1862,  and 
was  appointed  Paymaster  of  Relief  Funds  to  Families  of  Sol- 
diers in  the  United  States  service  from  Boston. 

There  have  been  twelve  successfully  contested  elections. 

The  first,  February  22,  1830,  vacated  the  seat  of  a  member 
from  Ward  6,  on  the  ground  that  "  closing  the  poll  before  the 
hour  at  which  the  voters  were  notified  it  would  be  closed,  was  a 
violation  of  the  rights  of  the  voters." 

The  second,  May  7,  1835,  vacated  the  seats  of  the  members 
of  Ward  3,  who  were  returned  as  having  been  elected  at  an 
adjourned  meeting,  December  11,  1834,  on  the  ground  of  irreg- 
ular proceeding,  to  render  the  whole  number  of  votes  certain  by 
taking  the  highest  number  of  votes  for  candidates  on  each  oppos- 
ing ticket ;  adjournment  of  the  meeting  by  the  sole  authority  of 
the  Warden,  and  other  irregularities,  at  the  annual  election 
December  8. 

The  third  case,  March  7,  1830,  vacated  the  seats  of  three 
members  of  Ward  12,  on  the  ground  that  a  number  of  illegal 
voters,  sufficient  to  affect  the  choice,  voted  at  the  polls. 

The  fourth,  February  9,  1843,  vacated  the  seats  of  three 
members  from  Ward  1,  returned  as  elected  at  the  adjourned 
meeting,  December  14,  on  the  ground  that  four  votes  for  non- 
resident candidates  (after  having  been  first  thrown  out  by  the 


CITY   GOVERNMENT.  205 

ward  officers  *)  were  counted  at  the  annual  election,  December 
12,  thereby  preventing  the  choice  of  two  other  candidates,  who, 
by  excluding  the  said  four  votes,  were  by  the  decision  of  the 
Council  declared  elected,  leaving  one  vacancy. 

The  fifth,  February  27,  1  851,  vacated  the  seats  of  two  mem- 
bers from  Ward  3,  on  the  ground  that  they  were  chosen  at  an 
adjourned  meeting,  which  was  illegally  held.  At  the  subsequent 
trial  the  same  members  were  again  returned  to  the  Common 
Council. 

The  sisth,  January  20,  1853,  vacated  the  seats  of  three  mem- 
bers of  Ward  3,  on  the  ground  that  they  were  chosen  at  an  ad- 
journed meeting  which  was  illegally  held. 

The  seventh,  February  3, 1853,  in  accordance  with  the  Report 
of  the  Committee  on  Elections,  vacated  the  seats  of  three  members 
from  Ward  11,  on  the  ground  that  the  Mayor  and  Aldermen  had 
no  right  to  issue  warrants  for  election  of  members  of  the  Common 
Council,  after  the  anuual  election,  and  before  the  organization  of. 
the  Government  elect.  But  inasmuch  as  the  elections  in  ques- 
tion were  conducted  bond  fide,  and  no  other  informality  was  ap- 
parent, and  as  this  custom  of  supplementary  elections  had  been 
in  vogue  for  twenty  years,  the  members  thus  elected  were  by  the 
votes  of  the  Common  Council  declared  entitled  to  their  seats. 

The  eighth,  March  19,  1863,  in  accordance  with,  the  Report 
of  the  Committee  on  Elections,  vacated  the  seat  of  a  member 
from  Ward  3,  on  the  ground  that  at  the  time  of  his  election  he 
was  not  an  inhabitant  of  that  ward.  Before  a  decision  was 
reached  on  this  point  the  member  in  question  resigned. 

The  ninth,  April  9,  1863,  vacated  the  seats  of  the  entire 
delegation  from  Ward  10,  on  the  ground  that  more  votes  were 
returned  than  there  were  persons  who  voted  in  that  ward  at  the 
municipal  election,  —  occasioned  by  mistake,  probably,  in  the 


*  This  fact  was  admitted,  though  not  stated  in  the  Eeport  of  the  Com- 
mittee. 


206  MUNICIPAL   REGISTER. 

counting  of  the  ballots,  —  the  variation  being  so  great  as  to 
affect  the  election  of  the  whole  delegation.  At  the  subsequent 
trial  the  same  members  were  again  returned  to  the  Common 
Council. 

The  tenth,  January  24,  1867,  vacated  the  seat  of  a  member 
from  Ward  3,  who  was  chosen  at  an  adjourned  meeting  (held  on 
account  of  a  tie  vote  at  the  regular  meeting,  Dec.  10,  1866),  on 
the  ground  that  the  Polls,  at  said  adjourned  meeting,  were  not 
kept  open  the  same  number  of  hours  as  were  required  by  the 
original  warrant.  At  a  subsequent  election  the  same  member 
was  returned  to  the  Common  Council.  [See  City  Doc.  12,  for 
1867.] 

The  eleventh,  January  16,  1868,  vacated  the  seat  of  a  mem- 
ber returned  for  Ward  10,  because  by  the  count  of  the  original 
ballots  cast  in  said  Ward  it  appeared  that  another  person  was 
chosen. 

The  twelfth,  January  6,  1870,  vacated  the  seat  of  a  member 
returned  from  Ward  13  for  the  same  reason  as  recited  above.
