Auditors’ Certificate 
We have audited the books and accounts of the New York Zoological Society, 
and of the “Carnegie Pension Fund” for the year ending December 31, 1917, and 
certify that the foregoing Schedules, “1” to “21” of cash receipts and expendi- 
tures are in accordance with the books, and correctly record the transactions re- 
lating to the Funds of the Society and the “Carnegie Pension Fund” for the year 
1917, and the condition of the various Funds as of December 31, 1917. The sub- 
scriptions, donations and dues reported as received and the income from invest- 
ments, have been properly accounted for, and the securities and cash in bank and 
on hand at December 31, 1917, as shown in the accounts of the Funds presented 
herewith, have been checked and found in order. 
Schedule “3” includes expenditures amounting to $1,537.92 made through the 
Park Department of the City of New York, which have not been verified by us, 
but we have incorporated them in the statements submitted, so that these may be 
complete.
