This shows a balance of $604.80, but not all the checks 

 issued have been presented for payment and the expenses of the 

 convention are not all in. According to the estimate of the 

 secretary of bills outstanding which include the bills of several 

 speakers at the convention, the items of expense in preparing for 

 the convention, the expenses of the stenographer for reporting 

 the meeting and preparing the report for publication, the last 

 half of the secretary's salary for the year and minor expenses, 

 the sum on hand will meet all these requirements and possibly 

 leave a small surplus. One less meeting of the directors was held 

 this year, it not having been necessary to meet to locate the con- 

 vention and on that account the matter of expense of the asso- 

 ciation for the year was reduced and we feel sure of closing the 

 business of the year without a deficit. 



Respectfully, 

 H. H. HOPKINS, Treasurer.
