L] Votes to Extend Water System to Pleasant View and to Issue Bonds of $100,000—Settlement in Burke Will Contest—Death of Samuel B Hoxie—Fifth Company Inspection—St. Patrick’s Day Celebration. As a result of the action of a finan- clal town meeting, Monday, the West- erly water system will be extended to Pleasant View, and the town will is- Eue bonds of $100,000 to fund the out- tanding indebtedness. The meeting as largely attended and was called to order by Moderator Eugene B, Pen- dleton, the call being read by Town Clerk Everett E. Whipple. Senator Louls W. Arnold of the board of water commissioners stated that properfy owners had made peti- tion for the extension of the water system to Pleasant View fter careful consideratio misgioners would recommend the ex- tenslon, adding that the property own- ers at Pleasant View had given guar- antee that extension could be made without loss to' the town. Each had agreed to pay the water department a minimum charge of §15 for water for the year ensulng from June 1 hould & sufficient number of water takers connect with the proposed ex- tension, result in a gross. income of not less than ten per cent. of the cost of construction, which will not exceed $10,000, thé minimum charge shall be reduced to $10, or charged In the more cofupact part of the towm for 33.334 gallons of water. Senator Arnold lution authorizin missioners to extend the water serv ice to Pleasant View; and that the treasurer he authorized to borrow the sum of $10,000 for that purpose. he resolution was ~seconded by Judge John W. Sweenéy. Manton Hoxie said he was in fa- vor of the proposed extemsion, but wanted to know the exact.cost. He said that heretofore it had been a characteristic of town meeting to ke appropriation of a specified sum r a specified purpose, but it served only as a wedge for additional appro- priations. Senator Arnold, in reply to Mr. Hoxie, said he had served the town on the board of water commissioners for twelve years, and without financial recompense, and there was mot a fax- payer in the town who could truthfully say that any appropriation made for the water system had been exceeded, but the work was always within or below the estimate. e sald the cost of extending the service to Pleasant View would not exceed the appropri- ation asked for—3$10,000. Thomas H. McKenzle, engineer and superintendent of the water works, gave a detailed description of the pro- posed extension, the size of pipe, ste. The service is for domestic and not fire purposes. The distance of the new pipe line will be g trifle over two miles, commecting with the twelve- inch main at the junction of the ‘Watch Hilj and Shore roads. Then followed a long discussion as to the size of pipes in connection with a proposition that might come later then presented a the water com: to extend the water service, from Pleasant View to Weckapaug. The whole subject, although not germane to the resolution, which provided for the extension to Pleasant View and the appropriation of $10,000 for the work, was discussed at length by Irving Maxson, Walter Price, Milo Clark, Louls W, Arnold, Frederick C. Buffum, Thomas McKenzle, Thomas H. Peabody and John J. Cdrney. Dur- ing the discussion it was shown that the water system was adequate for all present ndeds and a valuable asset for_the town The resolution favoring the exten- sion and appropriation was unani- mously adopted. Then came the resolution authoriz- ing the issuance of bonds to the amount of $100,000 to fund the town debt or so much thereof as was prac- tical, . Town Treasurer James M ton stated that in 1904 t act passed by the genera] assembly giving authority 1o the town to issue bonds, and which included school in- debtedness. Since then the market was not in condition to dispose of the Pendle- re was an bonds satisfactorily, and notes were substituted. T rer Pendleton said the 1804 resolution had been rescind- ed; and a new resolution of authority passed at the present s jon of the general assembly. -He said the pres- t was a favorable time to issue the bonds, as the time may come when an increased rate of interest would be re- quired, The géneral financial condition of the town was then gone into, and a general discussion as to whether the bonds, which were to be of $1,000 de- nomination, should be all isshed for the thirty vears term, or issued in se- ries redeemable in ten year periods. Mr, Pendleton explained in detail the advantage of issuing the bonds for the longar period, and Senator Arnold Frederick €. Buffum, Thomas H. Pea hody and Manton Hoxle gpoke on this point. None was opposed to the is- suance of the bonds, but warning was frequently sounded of the necessity of being more economica] in the conduct of town affairs, and that the chief fault was with the citizens in ‘finan- OUR STORE IS CLOSED FOR A FEW DAYS It is being entirely renovated.

He said at a town meeting, years ago, Billy Pendleton said there was quite a surplus in the treasury, and that it must be spent or the taxes reduced, Mr. Hoxie said that just before the time Lincoln was elected president, the town tax was 32 cents, on a hundred dollars, and now it is $1.50. He said he would like to know the valuation of the property then as cogpared to now. Mr. Hoxie said he was such a good little cuss that he was sent on a whaling voyage when he was twelve years old, and perhaps that was a Teason why he could not understand these financial probi Thomas H. Peabody spoke along the lines of the town keeping fthe ex- penses within the natural income, for all debts incurred must be paid, In conclusion he said: = “There comes a oning when the feast is o'er; A ful reckoning when men smile no 1 more. The resolution authorizing the i suance of $100,000 in bonds, redeem able In thirty years, was unanimously | adopted and the meeting adjourned. An_ adjourned on of ‘the town council sitting as probate ocourt was d Monday afternoon to hear the arguments in the Ell test, the testimony having been pr senfed and concluded last Wednesday. Judge John W. Sweeney, representing {he will, and Judge Natian B. Lewls, for the contesants, announced an agreement had been yeached by the parties in interest, and that opposi tion to probating the will had been withdrawn. The will was then admitted to pr bate and James W. Burke and Charles J. Butler were confirmed as execu- tors. Bonds were fixsd at $1,500. John J. Dunn, Everett A. Kingsley and Mi- chael E. Hannefy were appointed ap- praigers. Samuel B, Hoxie of Charlestown ied Sunday In his native town in his 62d year. He lived in New London for a while and returned to Charles- ton in 1879, Since that time he has been prominent in public affairs. For 26 years he served as chairmam of the school board, was town moderator for eight years. He represented the town In the lower house of the gen- eral assembly three years and as sen- ator two years. Mr. Hoxle was a member of the town council eight years and president during his last term of service. He was for several years one of the town auditors, and a member of the state shellfish commis- sion for five years. He is survived by Mrs. Hoxie and three gaughters, Miss Mary S. Hoxie, Mrs. Frank A.
