Mr. Hoyt admitted that Yr. Spencer did wrong in purchasing the type- writers previous to getting approval from the Board of Sele ctmen, ,but he felt that as long as the money was available in the Reserve Fund, this transfer should be approved because if the machines were sent back, there would be a considerable delay. The Selectmen agreed with Chairman Hoyt on this matter. Errol Locke, Chairman of the Board of Selectmen, spoke and said that the Board of Selectmen were asking, for 15,000.00 under Article `'ne of the Town "'arrant, but that the Appropriation Committee was recommending the sum of 3,000.00. Yr. Hoyt said that was' correct, but his Committee would go along on the ?5,000.00; because if the money was not expended before December 31, 1945, it would :go back into the Excess and Deficiency Account. The Appropriation Committee left the Board of Selectmen' s meeting at 7:50 P.M. , at which time they im- mediately proceeded to attend the Town Meeting.
