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 £80 1s. 4d. was the amount of interest accrued to the 31st December, 1882, but not then payable, and that £32 10s., being arrears of interest, was unpaid on the same date.
