Hill came before the Board and presented a <br />letter in which he explained the rates on several town employees <br />compensation insurance. <br />He also explained that the liability on the Town Hall and <br />Village Hall would not be sufficient to warrant insuring the same. <br />Nothing was done in regard to placing insurance'. <br />Mr. Hill requested that the Board send him copy of <br />estimates on buildings made by Mr. O'Connor and Mr. Whitney so <br />that the blanket schedule drawn up in 1920 may be revised. <br />The flags on the Common and Town Hall were ordered at <br />half mast in honor of Henry A. C. Woodward who died on March 88th. <br />Mr. Woodward was a former Selectman. <br />Mr. Clarke of the Eastern Contractors Co., Cambridge, Mass. <br />came before the Board and requested the privilege of demonstrating I a 12 20 H. P. Tractor for use on the highway department, price <br />$1435 delivered in Lexington. <br />It was agreed with Mr. Duffy that Mr. Clarke would demon- <br />strate the tractor on Thursday of this week on Concord Avenue. <br />Mr. Joseph Swan, representing his brother, and Mr. Russell <br />of Bedford St. came before the Board to request that the sewer <br />be extended on Bedford St. to include the first two cement houses <br />owned by them. Thequestion of laying the sewer in the sidewalk <br />or under the car tracks was considered the cost to be born by owners. <br />Mr. Beaudry was requested to make an estimate of the cost <br />of extension and present the same to the Board. ' <br />Mr. Robert P. Clapp came before the Board to request per- <br />mission to have the soft maple trees between Mr. Miles' house and <br />his own, along the street line, removed and replace the same <br />with elm trees. He explained that there were six trees to be <br />removed and that he would have the work done with no cost to <br />the Town. <br />The Board voteato grant Mr. Clapp permission to do as <br />requested. <br />The Board considered the matter of installing a sewer to <br />Audubon Road to relieve the conditions complained of in that <br />section for the past three or four years. <br />It was the sense of the Board that there might be some <br />other means of curing the situation other than spending $10,000 <br />on a sewer, and the matter was therefor taken under advisement. <br />1 <br />
