sex was held on Monday, Mareh 4. 
Frank E. Raymond was chosen mod- 
erator and called upon the Rey. H. 
M. Goddard to offer prayer. The 
warrant was then taken up and the 
reports of Town officers were in or- 
der. These were all clearly given 
and accepted for the most part 
unanimously. Next the necessary 
Town officers to serve for 1912 were 
elected. The balloting for selectmen 
developed contests all along the line.

and Albion Riggs. Albion Riggs of 
the old board was re-elected. In the 
central district two men were in the 
field: John P. Story and Aaron
