Excerpt from Sixty-Eighth Annual Report of the City of Rochester, New Hampshire: For the Year Ending December 31, 1959 Today ends one of the finest experiences of my life, working with a fine City Council, trying to make Rochester a better city to live in. In the four years I have been your Mayor, we have ac complished many things, such as building up the Public Works Department, revamping our tax structure, building parking lots and a street building program that, if continued, will presently hard surface all roads in the entire city. We have a Recreation Program that, if continued, will surpass any other in the entire state. Our school system is in a troubled spot, one school having been built within the last four years and new classrooms needed soon, plus replacement of some of our older antiquated schools. There are many problems facing the new administration and I wish to congratulate Mayor John Meader, and I am sure that under his administration, progress will continue. Again I wish to thank you gentlemen for being so kind and understanding and wish you all the best during the next two years.
