STATEMENT OF FINANCES. 



The linancial statenieiit of 1879, as made at the annual meeting, could 

 not include the settlement with ex-Treasurer Adams (which has been consum- 

 mated since that date), so that it was purposely left out of the minutes of 

 that meeting, as recorded in an earlier part of this volume. 



Now that the finance committee have every item on the accounts of the 

 society correct, a complete statement can be made.
