The Treasurer reported, that since closing his accounts, on the 

 1st of May, 1849, he had transferred the balance of " Building 

 Fund " to " General Expense," and had carried to this latter 

 account all the receipts and expenditures for building, making 

 it stand thus : — 



.May 1st, 1849, balance of " General Expense," $297 13 



« " " "Building Fund," 368 42 



April 30, 1850, paid General Expenses to date, 498 88 



" " Building Expenses do. 4,161 76 



$5,326 19 



I have received from Entrance Fees and 



Assessments, 620 00 



" Donations to " Building Fund," 2,000 00 

 " Stock in Atlas Bank sold 1,960 00 84,580 00 



Leaving a balance due him, April 30, 1850, of $746 19 



The income applicable to general expenses for the year that 

 has just ended exceeds the current expenses chargeable to it by 

 about $121 12. 



The large balance now due to the Treasurer from this account 

 has arisen from the cost of moving, putting on iron shutters, 

 interest on a debt that is now paid in full, and other expenses 

 which, from their nature, will not occur again. He would there- 

 fore recommend that this balance should be charged to the 

 Courtis Fund, and be paid out of the balance to the credit of 

 that account, namely, $983 38. 



Messrs. Bulfinch and Sheafe were chosen a Committee to 

 audit the Treasurer's accounts. 



The report of the Treasurer and the suggestions therein con- 

 tained, it was voted should be referred to the Finance Committee 

 of the ensuing year. 



The Committee appointed to nominate officers for the 

 ensuing year reported the names of the gentlemen who 

 held offices last year with tl^ exception of those of Dr. A. 

 A. Gould and Mr. P. T. Jackson, who declined a reelection.
