 render to the Committee an account of his receipts and disburse- 

 ments on behalf of the Society. 



12. — That any member who shall by accident or otherwise 

 break or damage any slide whilst it is under his care, or cause such 

 to be broken by bad packing, before it is received by the next 

 member, will be considered liable for the same ; the value of such
