3rd January, 1878.

We have counted the cash in hand, and have to the
best of our belief ascertained the correctness of the
above balance-sheet. We find that £40, due for
arrears of interest, was unpaid on 31st December,
1877; and, further, that £24 Os. 1d. was the amount
of interest accrued to that date but not then payable.
