DirectTor-In-CulEF’s ACCOUNT FOR THE YEAR I9I2 
4 
Room 3111, Granp CENTRAL TERMINAL, 
New York, February 6, 1913. 
Mr. Epwarp D. Apam 
Chairman, Finance Cees New York Botanical Garden, 
71 Broadway, New York, 
Dear Sir: 
This is to certify that I have examined and audited the financial 
books and accounts of the Director-in-Chief of the New York 
Botanical Garden for the year nineteen hundred and twelve 
(1912), and that I find the same to be correct, and the cash balance 
to be as stated in the current cash book. 
In accordance with recent practice, I have not included in this 
auditing the examination of the vouchers for City maintenance or 
construction work paid for by the City as such vouchers have been 
found proper and in order by the City Authorities, and it was 
decided in 1904 by the Chairman of the Finance Committee 
that a further examination of them was unnecessary. By like 
authority I have omitted also a detailed examination of the annual 
membership dues account. ‘These dues are received by the Direc- 
tor-in-Chief and forwarded by a to the Treasurer, the former 
keeping a detailed record of the s 
ener submitted, 
A. W. Stone, 
Special Auditor.
