Book Description

Excerpt from Fourth Annual Report of the Board of Fire Commissioners, for the Year Ending April 30, 1877 Like the last year, this has been one in which no large fires have occurred, and the losses have been small as compared with recent previous years. The same feeling of security seems to be prevalent among the community, and the Fire Department have, we believe, by their efforts and deportment, deserved well the confidence that has steadily gained ground since its reorganization. During the year the Board has been changed in its membership, by the resignation of Hon. T. T. Sawyer, appointed to the Water Board, and Gen. A. P. Rockwell, Chairman, elected President of the Eastern Railroad Corpo ration, and they are now filling those responsible positions.'
