BOSTON:
MUNICIPAL PRINTING OFFICE,

INTRODUCTION.
The City lias annually since 1821 issued a volume contain-
ing, until 1829, a register of the City Council and a list of
the officers. In 1829, the City Charter, in 1830, the acts
relating to Boston and the ordinances, and in 1832, an index
were added. The volume for 1822 contains fifteen pages,
and for 1840 eighty-five pages, and three pages of index.
The volume up to, and including, 1840 bears the title of The
Rules and Orders of the Common Council, and since that
year the title of The Municipal Registek. The Munici-
pal Register for 1841 contains the Rules and Orders of the
Common Council, joint rules, ordinances of the City, statutes
of the Commonwealth relating to the City, a list of the public
schools, the city government of 1841, the committees and
departments (consisting at that time of the treasury, law,
police, health, public land and buildings, lamps and bridges,
fire, and public charitable institutions), and a list of the
ward officers ; from 1842 to 1864, it also contains a list of
the members of preceding city governments, a necrological
record of these members, the latest ordinances and the special
statutes relating to the City ; in 1851 a list of the annual
orators was added, and in 1853 a map of the City and the
rules of the Board of Aldermen were inserted ; in 1876 sta-
tistics of registration and voting were included, and since 1879
in tabulated form; in 1883 portraits of the Mayor and pre-
siding officers of the two branches of the City Council were
included, and in 1888 a list of the members of the past city
governments of Roxbury and Charlestown was added, and
continued to 1890. From 1889 to 1896, inclusive, The
Municipal Register contained a compilation of the Charter
and Acts subsequently passed, in the place of which an index
of said Charter and Acts was substitued in 1897. The Bos-
ton charter and index are omitted this year, otherwise The
Municipal Register of this year is in substantially the
form of all other Municipal Registers since 1889.
By the direction of the Mayor The Municipal Register
of 1898 has been compiled by the Municipal Statistics
Department. Text and tables have been revised, and many
printer's and other errors have been corrected.

THE CITY SEAL
As it appeared prior to IS27.
The city seal was adopted by " An Ordinance to Establish
the City Seal," passed January 2, 1823, which provides
" That the design hereto annexed, as sketched by John R.
Penniman, giving a view of the city, be the device of the city
seal ; that the motto be as follows, to wit : ' Sicut patribus
sit Dens nobis ;' and that the inscription be as follows : —
'Bostonia condita, A.D. 1630. Civitatis regimine donata,
A.D. 1822.' " The motto is taken from 1 King's, viii. 57.
The seal as it then appeared is shown above.
The seal as it was afterwards changed, and has ever since
continued to be used, first appeared on page 221 of the
volume of laws and ordinances, commonly known as the
"First Revision," published in 1827, and is continued on
the city seal at the present time by Revised Ordinances
of 1898, Chapter 1, Section 5, which provides that " The
seal of the city shall be circular in form ; shall bear a view
of the city ; the motto ' Sicut Pateibus Sit Decs Nobis,'
and the inscription, ' BosTOisriA Condita, A.D. 1630. Civi-
tatis Regimine Donata, A.D. 1822,' as herewith set forth."
The seal as changed in 1827, and as it has ever since
appeared, is shown opposite the title page.

The first Board of Health in Boston was established in 1799, under
the special statute of February 13, 1799. The first collected edition of
the statutes under which this Board acted was published in 1811, and
contained also the regulations of the Board. That Board had in sub-
stance the same powers as the present Board of Health, and was
abolished by the first city charter. From 1822 to 1873 the functions of
the Board were exercised through the City Council. The present Board
of Health was established by an ordinance of December 2, 1872, and
organized January 15, 1873. It has published annual reports since 1873.

The Trustees of the Public Library of the City of Boston, who are five
in number, are appointed by the Mayor, one each year, for a term of five
years. They were incorporated by an act of the General Court passed April
4, 1878, and are authorized to receive and hold real and personal estate
which may be given, granted, bequeathed or devised to the said corpora-
66 MUNICIPAL REGISTER.
tion, to an amount not exceeding $1,000,000. The first Trustees were
appointed under an ordinance of October 14, 1852. The old Library
Building on Boylston street was opened to the public in September, 1858,
and closed finally in January, 1895. The new Library Building on Copley
square was first opened on March 11, 1895. The Library is maintained
by an annual appropriation voted out of the general funds of the city
by the City Council, about $25,000 of which is used annually for the
purchase of books. The Library also holds trust funds aggregating
-f 265, 000, the interest of which is devoted to the purchase of books.
The annual reports, the first of which appeared in 1852, have been con-
tinued without interruption.
Of the Quarterly Bulletins, which were begun in 1867, fourteen volumes
have been published. The series closed in 1896.
A Monthly Bulletin is now issued. The trustees have issued also general
and special catalogues of the Central Library, and of its branches and
special collections, as well as hand-books for readers, and other docu-
ments.
LIBRARY SYSTEM.
The Library system consists of the Central Library in Copley square;
ten branch libraries with independent collections of books; seventeen
stations, of which eleven contain deposits of books from the Central
Library, five contain deposits, reference books and periodicals and are
classed as reading-rooms, and one is a delivery station. Excluding the
seventeen stations, there were, on February 1, 1898, in the Central
Library and Branches, including the evening and Sunday service, 269
employees.
Between the Central Library and these twenty-seven stations, by
Library wagons and local expresses, there is a daily exchange of
books and cards, whereby persons living in outlying districts can
draw books from the Central Library without the necessity of com-
ing in person.
The delivery or deposit of books is also undertaken in five schools,
three reformatory institutions and twenty-two fire-company houses.
Cards allowing the use of two books without restriction as to class,
for two weeks, are issued to all residents of Boston over twelve years
of age, with no further attendant delay than is involved in identifica-
tion. No guaranty is asked, except in case of a sojoui'ner. For read-
ing and reference the Library is open to all without formality. Special
cards for more extended privileges are issued to clergymen ofiiciating
in the city, and to teachers giving instruction in Boston institutions of
learning; a special card is also issued in certain cases by the Trustees.
On February 1, 1898, there were 64,973 card-holders having the right to
draw books for home use. The total number of volumes was 698,888;
of periodicals currently received, 1,925. Books issued in 1897 for
home use, 1,199,658; of reference use, on account of the freedom with
which books may be consulted, no adequate statistics are kept.

NEW WARDS. 115
NEW WARDS.
New wards were established for the city in the year eighteen hundred
and ninety-five, the first division into new wards since the year 1875.^ An
attempt was made by the City Council to make a new division of wards
in the year 1885, and an ordinance to that effect was prepared by a
special committee appointed for the purpose and passed by the City
Council, and approved by the Mayor.^ Certain questions were raised,
however, in the General Court of 1886, relative to establishing State,
senatorial and representative districts, and as to whether such districts
should be established according to the territorial boundaries of cities
and towns and their wards as they existed on the first day of May, 1885,
or whether new ward lines, as in the case of the city of Boston, should
be followed. On May 21, 1886, the opinion of the Justices of the
Supreme Judicial Court was asked by the Legislature on this matter,
and they decided that the district divisions referred to must be made
according to territorial and other boundaries existing on the first day of
May, 1885, and that the new ward divisions were illegal. ^ On account
of this decision of the Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court, an act
was passed by the Legislature in June, 1886,* which provided that the
several wards, precincts, and assessment districts of the several cities
of the Commonwealth, existing May 1, 1885, should be established as
the wards, precincts, and assessment districts of said cities, any acts or
ordinances of the city councils of said cities to the contrary notwithstand-
ing. The new division of wards was thus set aside and the ward lines
established in 1875 remained in effect until they were changed in 1895,
and established under the provisions of Chap. 417, of the Acts of 1893,
as follows :
WARD ONE.
Beginning at the intersection of the Harbor Commissioners' line and
the division line dividing the property of the Alonzo Crosby heirs and
Eichard F. Green; thence by the Harbor Commissioners' line to the
1 An ordinance providing for a new division of the city into wards, passed Nov. 16,
1857. An ordinance to make Breed's Island, so-called, part of Ward 1, passed Dec. 4,
1875. By Chap. 242, of the Acts of 1876, the City Council were directed to divide Ward
Twenty-two into two wards to be called Wards 22 and 25. The division was accord-
ingly made by an ordinance passed May 27, 1876.
2 An ordinance making a new division of the city into wards, passed Dec. 23, 1885.

t Josiah Quincy
The election of Mayor for 1845 required eight ballotings by the
citizens. At the eiglith trial, on the twenty-first of February, Thomas
A. Davis was elected. From January to February 27, 1845, William
Parker, having been elected Chairman of the Board of Aldermen, per-
formed the duties of Mayor.
On the twenty-second of November Thomas A. Davis died, being the
only Mayor who has died in office since the organization of the City
Government in 1822. On the eleventh of December, Josiah Quincy, jr.,
was elected Mayor by the City Council for the unexpired term of 1845.
Benson Leavitt acted as Chairman of the Board in the interval between
the death of Mr. Davis and the election of Mr. Quincy.
The election of Mayor for 1854 was continued througli three ballot-
ings, from December 12, 1853, to January 9, 1854. In the meantime the
duties of Mayor were performed by Benjamin L. Allen, Chairman of
the Board of Aldermen.
At the municipal election in 1872 William Gaston was certified, by
the returns of the officers of the several wards, to have been elected
Mayor of the city for the next municipal term. But, upon charges of
alleged fraudulent practices in one of the wai'ds of the city, a recount
of all the ballots cast at said election was demanded and made; and it
appearing therefrom that Henry L. Pierce had seventy-nine plurality,
he was declared duly elected Mayor for the year 187S.
In 1873 Henry L. Pierce, Mayor of the city, was elected a member of
the Forty-third Congress from the Third Massachusetts District, in
place of William Whiting, deceased. Mr. Pierce resigned his office as
Mayor on November 29, and took his seat in Congress on December
1, 1873. The duties of the Mayor for the remainder of the municipal
year were performed by Leonard R. Cutter, Chairman of the Board of
Aldermen.

At the municipal election, in 1852, nine Aldermen had a majority of
ballots; but in accordance with the statute, the eight who had the
highest number of votes were declared elected.
180 MUNICIPAL REGISTER.
The municipal government for 1855 was tbe first one that was organ-
ized under the new or revised city charter, which provided for the
annual election of twelve Aldermen.
At the municipal election, December 14, 1880, the returns of the pre-
cinct officers showed William Frost to be elected Alderman by a plural-
ity of fifteen votes over James J. Flynn, and a very slight difference in
the number of ballots cast for other candidates who failed of election.
A recount of the ballots cast for Mayor and Aldermen was thereupon
demanded in legal form. A committee of the Board of 1880, having
made the recount, reported December 27 that Mr. Flynn was elected,
having received a plurality of votes over Mr. Frost; and Mr. Flynn
took the seat at the organization of the board of 1881. Mr. Frost gave
notice of his intern ion to contest the seat of Mr. Flynn and also of Mr.
Haldeman, who had received the next greatest number of votes. A
committee of the Board of 1881 was appointed to consider the matter,
and reported March 14, 1881 (City Document No. 38 of 1881), the
majority declaring Mr. Frost entitled to the seat held by Mr. Flynn,
with two minority reports. The majority report was accepted March
21, and Mr. Frost took the seat. One peculiar incident in this case
was the reception of a numerously signed petition asking the Board to
examine and recount the ballots for Messrs. Woolley, Haldeman, and
Flynn, sitting members, and Messrs. William Frost, John Thompson,
and George S. Dexter, standing next highest on the precinct returns;
another was the fact that many ballots were either mislaid or stolen in
Precinct 3 of Ward 13 on election day.
At the municipal election, December 13, 1881, the returns of the precinct
officers showed William Frost to be elected Alderman by a plurality of
154 votes over Charles V. Whitten. On petition, in due legal form, a
committee of the Board of 1881 made a recount of the ballots cast for
Mayor and Aldermen, and reported that Mr. Whitten was elected over
Mr. Frost, and Mr. Whitten took the seat. Mr. Frost contested the
seat of Mr. Whitten, and called for a re-examination of the ballots cast.
Such examination was made by a new committee, which reported
January 17 that William Frost had 19,861 and Charles V. Whitten had
19,825. On January 19, 1882, the seat was awarded to Mr. Frost.
For reports of contested seats in the Board of Aldermen, see City
Document No. 7 for 1861, and City Document No. 16 for 1862.
At the municipal election, December 12, 1882, the returns of the pre-
cinct officers showed Edwin F. Leighton to be elected Alderman by a
plurality of 102 votes over Joseph Caldwell. On petition in due legal
form a committee of the Board of 1882 recounted the ballots cast for
these two candidates, and reported December 26 that Joseph Caldwell
appeared to be chosen by a plurality of 14, and that in addition there
were found 3 ballots for " Caldwell," 1 for " E. F. Leighton,"
18 for "F. Leighton," and 11 for " Leighton ;" also that, " with
the exception of the name ' E. F. Leighton,' which was wiitten, the
ALDERMEN. 181
abbreviated names above recited were plainly legible beyond tbe
edges of ' stickers,' or '■ pastei's,' which covered and concealed the
Christian names of Messrs. Caldwell and Leighton, those stickers
having been pasted upon an adjoining name, but being of such length
as to partly cover the names in question." The committee further re-
ported that there was plainly no intent to cancel the names over which
the stickers extended. Mr. Caldwell, who was a member of the Board
of 1882, thereupon stated his intention of not appearing to claim a
seat in the Board of 1883, and introduced an order, which was passed,
declaring that, in the opinion of the Board, the abbreviated ballots
should be credited to Mr. Leighton. The Board of 1883, on petition of
Mr. Leighton, awarded him the seat at the first meeting, January 1,

The principal successfully contested elections may be summarily
described as follows:
(1.) The Common Council, on December 29, 1828, declared vacant
the seats of two members (one from Ward 1 and one from Ward 2),
because the said members having each accepted another office, viz. :
that of Engineer in the Fire Department, were not entitled to their
seats.
(2.) On February 22, 1830, the Council 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."
(3.) On May 7, 1835, the Council 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 irregular proceeding, to
render the whole number of votes certain by taking the highest number
of votes for candidates on each opposing ticket, adjournment of the
meeting by the sole authority of the Warden, and other irregularities,
at-the annual election, December 8.
(4.) On March 7, 1839, the Council vacated the seats of three mem-
bers of Ward 12, on the ground that a number of illegal voters, suffi-
cient to affect the choice, voted at the polls.
(5.) On January 19, 1843, the Council 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
186 MUNICIPAL REGISTER.
(aftei" having been first thrown out by the 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.
(6.) On February 27, 1851, the Council vacated the seats of two
members from Ward 3, on the ground that they were chosen at an
adjourned meeting which was illegally held. At a subsequent election
the same members were again returned to the Common Council.
(7.) On January 20, 1853, the seats of thi-ee members of Ward 3
were declared vacated on the ground that they were chosen at an
adjourned meeting which was illegally held.
(8.) On February 3, 1853, in accordance with the Report of the Com-
mittee on Elections, the seats of three members from Ward 11 were
vacated on the ground that the Mayor and Aldermen had no right to
issue warrants for election of members of the Common Council, after
the annual election and before the organization of the government-
elect. But Inasmuch as the elections in question were conducted bona
fide, and no other informality was apparent, and as this custom of
supplementary elections had been in vogue for twenty years, the mem-
bers thus elected were by the vote of the Common Council declared
entitled to their seats.
(9.) On March 19, 1863, in accordance with the Report of the Com-
mittee on Elections, the Council 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.
(10.) On April 9, 1863, the Council 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 elec-
tion,— occasioned by mistake, probably, in the counting of the ballots,
— the variation being so great as to affect the election of the whole
delegation. At the subsequent election the same members were again
returned to the Common Council.
(11.) On January 21, 1867, 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, December 10, 1866), was vacated on the ground that
the polls at said adjourned meeting were not kept open the same num-
ber of hours as were required by the original warrant. At a sub-
sequent election the same member was returned to the Common
Council. (See City Document No. 12, for 1867).
(12.) On January 16, 1868, the seat of a member returned from
Ward 10 was vacated, because, by the count of the original "ballots cast
in said ward, it appeared that another person was chosen.
(13.) On January 6, 1870, the Council vacated the seat of a member
returned from Ward 13, for the same reason as is recited above.
iTais fact was admitted, though not statscl in tbe report of the committee.
COMMON COUNCIL. 187
(14.) On January 5, 1871, the Council vacated the seat of a member
returned from Ward 15, for the same reason as is recited above.
(15.) The Council, on January 18, 1872, vacated the seat of a member
returned from Ward 7 for the same reason.
(16.) At the annual municipal election in 1871, Frederick S. Risteen
was declared elected as a member from Ward 10. The election was
contested by J. Q. A. Brackett, and a recount of the original ballots
showed that said Brackett was elected by a plurality of one ballot over
F. S. Risteen, and said Brackett was accordingly declared by the Com-
mon Council of 1872 to be entitled to the seat. Subsequently Mr.
Risteen contested this decision, on the ground that his name was
erased from a number of ballots by some one of the ward officers after
said ballots were deposited by the voters. After a protracted inquiry
the Common Council sustained this view of the case, and Mr. Risteen
was again returned to his former seat, and was again duly qualified
on February 1, 1872. (See City Document No. 18, for 1872.)
(17.) On January 4, 1874, the Council vacated the seat of a member
returned from Ward 13, because, by the covint of the original ballots
cast in said ward, it appeared that another person was chosen.
(18.) On January 14, 1875, the Council vacated the seat of a member
returned from Ward 1, because, by the count of the original ballots
cast in said ward, it appeared that another person was elected.
(19.) On January 4, 1877, the Council vacated the seat of a member
from Ward 20, because, by the count of the original ballots cast in said
ward, it appeared that another person was elected.
(20.) The Council, on January 10, 1878, vacated the seat of a member
from Ward 20, because, by the count of the original ballots cast in that
ward, it appeared that another person was chosen.
(21.) The Council, on December 27, 1880 (see records of Board of
Aldermen of said date), vacated the seats of one member from each of
the following-named wards, viz. : 3, 13, 16 and 19, because, from an
examination of the original ballots cast in said wards, it appeared that
other persons were chosen. From an examination made at the same
time of the original ballots cast in Ward 5, it appeared that instead of
there being a tie vote for a third member from said ward, three mem-
bers were duly chosen. Peculiar features of the case in Ward 13 were
that some of the ballots undoubtedly deposited by the voters of Pre-
cinct 3 of this ward were either mislaid or stolen at the polling-place,
and that the Committee of the Board of Aldermen of 1880, who
examined the ballots for Common Council in that ward, erroneously
reported that the sitting member had been duly elected. (See City
Document No. 54, of 1881.)
(22.) On April 14, 1881, the Council vacated the seat of a member
returned from Ward 13, as it appeared from inspection of the original
ballots that another person was elected.
(23.) In 1887 one seat in the representation of Ward 4 and one in
that of Ward 15 were vacated and the contestants declared elected by
188 MUNICIPAL REGISTEE.
the Council, the Council exercising its discretion as to the intent of
the voter in certain cases of technical irregularity. (See City Docu-
ments Nos. 6, 11, of 1887.)
(24.) In 1889 one seat in the representation of Ward 3 and one in
that of Ward 12 were vacated and the contestants declared elected by
the Council, the intent of the voter in cases of technical irregularity
being considered. ^
The longest continuous service in the City Council is that of David
F. Barry, member of the Common Council from 1880 to 1893 (President
in 1887, "88, '91, '92, '93), and a member of the Board of Aldermen in 1894,
'95, '96 and '97. Eliphalet Williams (President of the Common Council,
1829) served fifteen years, but not consecutively. James J. Flynn
served twelve years in the Common Council (President, 1883) and three
years in the Board of Aldermen. Thomas Wetmore served eleven
years, not consecutively, in the Board of Aldermen.
