JOHN SHARP, Provincial Treasurer.

I hereby certify that I have examined the accounts of the Provincial Treasurer of the Province of Nelson, for the year ending 31st March, 1860, and have compared them with the Vouchers, and find the computation correct; that the Revenues and Receipts brought on charge and required by law to be paid into the Provincial Account were so paid; that all issues of Public Moneys have been made on warrants of the Superintendent duly certified by me; that all moneys issued in payment of services rendered were legally available according to the terms of the Provincial Audit Act, 1860; and the Expenditure shown in the said accounts has been properly cleared, and that any part thereof which may have been incurred without authority of law is separately shown.

Nelson, 15th April, 1860. H. D. JACKSON, Provincial Auditor.

Printed under the authority of the Provincial Government of the Province of Nelson, by Nation and Luckie, Waimea-street, Nelson, Printers for the time being to the said Government.
