NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Town Meeting 
The adjourned town meeting will 
be held next week on Monday and 
probably Tuesday evening also. The 
first matter will pertain to the suit of 
the Town vs. Burnham. The matter 
of additional water supply will also 
come up, and will evoke considerable 
discussion it is anticipated. 
COMMUNICATION 
MANCHESTER, MaAss., Apr. 4, 1907. 
Editor of the North Shore Breeze: 
The report of the appropriation 
committee in reference to water sup- 
ply, as called for under Article No. 
27 of the town warrant, is certainly a 
marvelous document and is evidently 
intended as a sort of anti-fat prescrip- 
tion for the town treasury, recommend- 
ing that the town raise, appropriate, 
and borrow $36,138 to buy a lot of 
swamp lands. 
After this wonderful feat is accom- 
plished, and the pumping station and 
standpipe have been moved up in the 
King Row and the $36,138 spent, they 
suggest that if water is what is desired 
that the town go to Gravelly Pond 
and get it. 
This proposition looks rather ridicu- 
lous to us ordinary citizens. Some- 
thing like Billy Norris selling the 
Inglish Syndicate a mine that used to 
have tin in it. But it is doubtless the 
best thing for the town as the appro- 
priation committee know the kind of 
medicine we need better than we do 
ourselves, and if they say that our 
systems require more iron let us hold 
on to our noses and take the pill and 
possibly, by applying. a little of Mrs. 
Eddy’s philosophy with the dose, we 
may pull through another season.
