BOSTON  RETIREMENT  SYSTEM  —  FUNDS. 

The  Boston  Retirement  System  was  established  on  February  1,  1923, 
under  the  authority  of  chapter  521  of  the  Acts  of  1922,  known  as  the 
Boston  Retirement  Act,  and  the  funds  thereby  created  are  the  Annuity 
Savings  Fund,  the  Pension  Accumulation  Fund  and  the  Retirement 
Reserve  Fund. 

The  care  of  the  funds  is  vested  in  a  retirement  Board,  consisting  of 
the  Treasurer  of  the  City  of  Boston,  ex-officio;  one  person  appointed  by 
the  Mayor  of  the  City  of  Boston  subject  to  confirmation  by  the  Civil 
Service  Commission  and  one  person  appointed  by  the  other  two  members, 
who  must  be  a  member  of  the  retirement  system. 


346  TRUST    FUNDS. 

The  Retirement  Board  is  "authorized  to  invest  the  funds  of  the  retire- 
ment system  in  such  securities  as  are  allowed  for  investment  by  the  sinking 
fund  commissioners  of  the  City  of  Boston." 

The  purpose  of  the  funds  is  to  provide  retirement  allowances  for  the 
superannuated  and  disabled  employees  of  the  City  of  Boston  and  County 
of  Suffolk  who  entered  membership  in  the  retirement  system.  Member- 
ship was  optional  for  all  employees  in  service  on  February  1,  1923,  and  is 
compulsory  for  all  persons  entering  service  after  that  date.  Members 
reaching  the  age  of  sixty  are  retired  on  their  own  request  and  upon  attain- 
ing the  age  of  seventy  retirement  is  compulsory.  With  certain  provisions 
members  who  are  under  age  sixty  may  be  retired  for  disability.  A  deduc- 
tion of  four  per  cent  of  the  regular  compensation  of  all  members  is  made 
by  the  Treasurer  and  the  city  contributes  a  like  amount  so  that  upon 
retirement  the  disabled  or  superannuated  employees  receive  a  retirement 
allowance  which  is  made  up  of  an  annuity  based  on  their  accumulated 
deductions  and  a  pension  from  the  city.

FRANKLIN  FUND. 

This  fund  has  resulted  from  a  bequest  of  £1,000  sterling  to  the  "Inhabi- 
tants of  the  Town  of  Boston  in  Massachusetts,"  made  by  Benjamin 
Franklin  in  a  codicil  to  his  will  (see  Suffolk  Probate  R-ecords,  book  712, 
page  1).  The  said  codicil  provided  that  the  fund,  "if  accepted  by  the 
inhabitants  of  the  Town  of  Boston,"  should  be  managed  "under  the 
direction  of  the  Select  Men  united  with  the  Ministers  of  the  oldest  Episco- 
palian, Congregational  and  Presbyterian  Churches  in  that  Town,"  who 
were  to  loan  upon  certain  stated  conditions  portions  of  the  said  fund,  at 
5  per  cent  interest,  "to  such  young  married  artificers,  under  the  age  of 
25  years,  as  have  served  an  Apprenticeship  in  the  said  Town;  and  faith- 
fully fulfilled  the  Duties  required  in  their  Indentures,  so  as  to  obtain 
a  good  moral  Character  from  at  least  two  respectable  Citizens,  who  are 
willing  to  become  their  Sureties  in  a  Bond." 

The  fund  was  accepted  by  the  Town  at  a  Town  meeting  held  May  25, 
1790  (Franklin  having  died  April  17,  1790),  and  the  "Donation"  was 
paid  to  persons  acting  as  managers  in  1791. 

Franklin's  codicil  provided  that  at  the  end  of  100  years  the  managers 
should  reserve  31-131  of  the  amount  which  Franklin  estimated  would  have 
accumulated  by  that  time,  this  amount  to  continue  "to  be  let  out  on 
interest  in  the  manner  above  directed  for  another  hundred  years,"  and 
that  they  should  spend  100-131  of  the  fund  which  had  by  that  time  accumu- 
lated "in  Public  Works  which  may  be  judged  of  most  general  utility  to 
the  inhabitants  such  as  Fortifications,  Bridges,  Aqueducts,  Public  Build- 
ings, Baths,  Pavements  or  whatever  may  make  living  in  the  Town  more 
convenient  to  its  People  and  render  it  more  agreeable  to  strangers  resorting 
thither  for  Health  or  a  temporary  residence." 

The  first  period  of  100  years  expired  May  2,  1891,  but  a  suit  brought 
by  the  heirs  of  Franklin  temporarily  prevented  the  expenditure  of  this 
portion  of  the  fund  for  the  purposes  specified,  and  it  was  not  until  January 
17,  1894,  that  the  treasurer  of  the  fund,  Mr.  Samuel  F.  McCleary,  by 
direction  of  the  ministers  of  the  three  churches  named  in  the  codicil  and 
the  Board  of  Aldermen  of  the  City  of  Boston,  which  Board  had  been 
assumed  to  be  the  successors  of  the  "Select  Men,"  paid  to  the  City  Treas- 
urer $329,300.48  (100-131  of  the  fund) ;  and  the  said  persons  voted  that 
this  amount  be  expended  "in  the  purchase  of  land  and  for  the  erection 
thereon  of  the  Franklin  Trades  School  and  for  the  equipment  of  the 
same."  The  fund  was  not,  however,  expended  for  that  purpose,  certain 
suits  having  been  brought  to  have  the  courts  determine  who  were  in  fact 
managers  of  said  fund;  and  it  was  finally  decided  (see  Collins  vs.  Doyle, 
184  Mass.  373)  that  the  "selectmen  while  in  the  performance  of  their 
duties  as  managers  were  not  acting  as  public  officers  of  the  town,"  and  that 
the  members  of  the  Board  of  Aldermen  "  did  not  become  their  successors 
as  managers  of  the  Franklin  Fund";  and  by  virtue  of  a  final  decree  made 
by  Justice  William  C.  Loring  of  the  Supreme  Judicial  Court  on  March  16, 
1904,  nine  persons  (of  whom  the  Mayor  of  Boston  is,  ex  officio,  one)  were 
appointed  to  act  in  conjunction  with  the  ministers  of  the  three  churches 
as  managers  of  the  said  fund.  The  managers  are  the  rector  of  Christ 
Church,  the  ministers  of  the  First  Church  in  Boston  and  the  First  United 
Presbyterian  Church,  Malcolm  E.  Nichols,  Mayor  of  Boston  (ex  officio), 
Everett  Morss  (President),  Charles  E.  Cotting,  (Treasurer),  Rev.  Charles 
E.  Park  (Secretary),  David  A.  Ellis,  Charles  R.  Gow,  Louis  K.  Rourke  and 
J.  Frank  O'Hare. 


358  TRUST    FUNDS. 

From  the  accumulated  fund  there  has  been  expended  by  the  managers 
$429,091.64  on  account  of  the  construction  and  equipment  of  a  building 
at  the  corner  of  Appleton  and  Berkeley  streets,  known  as  the  Franklin 
Union,  and  containing  a  hall  capable  of  seating  1,000,  24  class-rooms  and 
6  draughting  rooms.  The  object  of  the  institution  is  to  afford  people 
working  at  a  trade  an  opportunity  to  increase  their  knowledge  and  improve 
their  condition.  The  land  on  which  the  building  stands  was  purchased 
by  the  City  of  Boston  for  $100,000. 

The  balance  of  the  fund,  which  was  retained  by  the  treasurer, —  and 
which  the  codicil  provides  shall  remain  invested  until  1991,  when  it  will 
be  divided  between  the  City  of  Boston  and  the  Commonwealth  of  Massa- 
chusetts, in  the  proportion  specified  in  the  bequest, —  was,  at  the  request 
of  the  managers  of  the  fund,  turned  over  to  the  City  Treasurer  on  October 
20,  1904,  it  having  been  voted  by  the  managers  that  the  Treasurer  of  the 
City  of  Boston  for  the  time  being  act  as  the  treasurer  of  both  the  accu- 
mulated and  the  accumulating  funds.

manuscripts  in  the  Spanish  and  Portuguese  languages,  about  four  thou- 
sand volumes,  and  also  the  sum  of  four  thousand  dollars.  After  the 
receipt  of  said  sums  the  city  is  required  to  spend  not  less  than  one  thou- 
sand dollars  in  every  five  years  during  the  twenty-five  years  next  suc-

per  cent  per  annum)  in  the  purchase  of  books  in  the  Spanish  and  Portu- 
guese languages  and  literature.  At  the  end  of  twenty-five  years  the

freely  accessible  for  reference  or  study,  but  are  not  to  be  loaned  for  use 
outside  of  the  library  building.  If  these  bequests  are  not  accepted  by  the 
city,  and  the  trusts  and  conditions  faithfully  executed,  the  books,  manu- 
scripts and  money  are  to  be  given  to  the  President  and  Fellows  of  Harvard 
College. 

In  order  that  the  city  might  receive  the  immediate  benefit  of  this  con-

the  Trustees  of  the  Public  Library  received  said  bequests  on  behalf  of 
the  city,  and  made  suitable  arrangements  for  the  care  and  custody  of  the

SCHOOL  TRUST  FUNDS. 

Bowdoin  Dorchester  School  Fund. —  On  March  1,  1797,  James 
Bowdoin,  of  Boston,  in  token  of  his  respect  and  esteem  for  the  inhabi- 
tants of  the  town  of  Dorchester,  and  for  the  sum  of  5s.,  deeded  to  them 
and  to  their  successors  forever,  "for  the  use  and  benefit  of  the  public 
schools  in  said  town,  a  certain  parcel  of  woodland."  The  sale  of  this 
estate  by  the  Board  of  Street  Commissioners  was  authorized  by  the  City 
Council  in  1889,  and  the  net  proceeds  paid  to  and  invested  by  the  City 
Treasurer  in  bonds  of  the  City  of  Boston,  the  income  of  said  bonds  being 
expended  by  the  School  Committee  for  the  benefit  of  the  public  schools 
in  that  part  of  said  city  formerly  called  Dorchester. 

On  September  27,  1897,  the  Corporation  Counsel  of  the  City  gave  an 
opinion  that  the  schools  in  South  Boston  had  the  same  right  as  the  schools 
in  Dorchester  to  participate  in  the  benefits  of  this  fund,  and  since  that 
date  the  income  has  annually  been  expended  for  the  purchase  of  books 
and  other  supplies  for  the  schools  in  these  two  sections  of  the  city.

Charlestown  School  Trust  Fund. —  The  Legislature  of  Massachu- 
setts, on  the  27th  of  March,  1793,  passed  an  act  to  incorporate  Richard 
Devens,  Nathaniel  Gorham,  Josiah  Bartlett,  Aaron  Putnam,  Joseph  Hurd, 
Nathaniel  Hawkins,  Seth  Wyman  and  their  successors,  Trustees  of  the 
Charlestown  Free  Schools.  On  the  18th  of  April,  the  same  year,  it  was 
"Voted  that  the  Town  Treasurer  deliver  to  Aaron  Putnam,  Esq.,  Treas- 
urer of  the  Trustees  of  the  Charlestown  Free  Schools,  all  the  money, 
bonds,  notes  of  hand,  etc.  (being  the  property  of  said  free  schools),  that 
now  are  or  may  come  into  his,  the  Town  Treasurer's  hand." 

The  charter  of  the  City  of  Charlestown,  after  prescribing  the  mannner 
of  electing  the  School  Committee,  provides  that  the  person  thus  chosen 
shall  have  "all  the  powers  and  privileges,  and  be  subject  to  all  the  liabili- 
ties set  forth"  in  the  act  to  incorporate  certain  persons  under  the  name 
of  the  Trustees  of  Charlestown  Free  Schools.  The  Act  of  Annexation  to 
Boston  provided  for  the  continuance  of  this  corporation  in  the  members 
of  the  School  Committee  of  the  City  of  Boston  from  the  Charlestown 
District. 

♦See,  also,  Horace  Mann  School  Fund. 


378  TRUST   FUNDS. 

By  chapter  53  of  the  Acts  of  1877  the  School  Committee  was  incorpo- 
rated and  authorized  to  receive  the  Charlestown  School  Trust  Fund,  to 
"manage  said  fund,  and  disburse  the  income  thereof  within  the  limits  of 
the  former  City  of  Charlestown,  according  to  the  tenor  of  the  instruments

sioners of  Sinking  Funds  of  the  City  of  Boston,  ex  officio,  another  chosen 
by  the  School  Committee  and  the  third  shall  be  chosen  by  the  Board  of 
Trustees  of  the  Teachers'  Retirement  Fund  in  the  City  of  Boston. 

"In  addition  to  the  amount  which  the  school  committee  is  now  author- 
ised by  law  to  appropriate  for  the  support  of  the  public  schools  of  the  city 
and  for  other  purposes,  it  shall  annually  appropriate  for  the  purposes  con-

priations for  other  school  purposes,  the  sum  of  seven  cents  upon  each  one 
thousand  dollars  of  the  valuation  on  which  the  appropriations  of  the  City 
Council  of  the  city  are  based,  and  shall  from  time  to  time  pay  to  the 
treasurer  of  the  permanent  pension  fund  such  portion  of  the  proceeds  of 
said  seven  cents  upon  each  one  thousand  dollars  of  the  valuation  aforesaid 
as,  in  the  opinion  of  the  school  committee,  will  not  be  needed  for  the 
purpose  of  paying  pensions  to  teachers  during  that  year."

PUBLIC   SCHOOL   TEACHERS'   RETIREMENT   FUND. 

This  fund  has  been  created  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  chapter 
237  of  the  Acts  of  1900  and  in  charge  of  a  board  of  trustees  consisting  of 
the  superintendent  of  schools,  three  female  teachers,  three  male  teachers, 
and  four  members  of  the  School  Committee.    . 

The  fund  is  for  the  purpose  of  providing  annuities  to  teachers  who  have 
retired  from  the  service  of  the  City  of  Boston  after  having  taught  a  certain 
length  of  time  in  the  day  schools  of  the  city,  and  who  have  contributed 
a  certain  sum  to  the  fund. 

Eighteen  dollars  per  year  is  deducted  by  the  City  Treasurer  from  the 
salaries  of  all  teachers  who  enter  the  service  of  the  city  after  the  passage 
of  the  Act  of  1900,  and  also  from  the  salaries  of  such  other  teachers  as 
have  voluntarily  elected  to  come  within  the  provisions  of  the  act. 

On  December  31,  1927,  thirty-nine  hundred  ninety-six  teachers  were 
contributing  to  the  fund  at  the  rate  of  $18  per  year. 

On  December  31,  1927,  three  hundred  thirty-two  teachers  were  receiving 
annuities  of  $10  per  month,  one  at  $6.67  per  month,  one  at  $6  per  month, 
three  at  $5  per  month,  one  at  $5.78  per  month  and  one  at  $4.44  per  month. 

On  December  31,  1927,  the  fund  in  the  hands  of  the  City  Treasurer, 
custodian,  consisted  of  the  following  property:
