said town, or by notice published in a newspaper or newspapers published
in said town, or both, which said notices shall state that the assessment
books will be open for inspection on three evenings from 7.30 o'clock to
10 o'clock, at the City Hall within three weeks from the date of said
notice. And if any owner of any property so assessed shall feel aggrieved
by said assessment he may appeal to the Mayor and City Council, which
is hereby constituted a board of final appeal and equalization of said
assessment, within fifteen days from the last inspection day. The said
Mayor and City Council may make such deduction from and addition to
the assessments made by the board of assessors as may to it seem reason-
able and just for the purpose of equalization. They may also remit taxes
when the same have been illegally imposed. And the said assessors shall

each receive for their services such reasonable compensation as may be
fixed by the Mayor and City Council. It shall be the duty of the treas-
urer, during the month of April in each and every year in which there is
no general assessment, to assess all improvements and new property, not
assessed at the last general assessment, and report the same to the Mayor
and City Council, which shall have the power to revise the lists and the
same general powers as heretofore conferred in cases of general assess-
ments.
