In the foregoing is an item of £202 for printing; this is 

 now brought into account on settlement with Mr. Porter. 

 It includes the printing of several years — the actual cost 

 this year being only £20 15s. It should be understood, 

 however, that during the period he received subscriptions 

 from members of the Society, included above, and for 

 which he gave credit in his accounts. The actual expen- 

 diture this year is not more than £660 for the main- 

 tenance of the Society.
