REPORT OF THE TREASURER OF THE ACADEMY OF 
NATURAL SCIENCES 
For the Year Ending November 30th, 1893. 
Isaac C. Martindale was re-elected Treasurer of the Academy on 
December 27th, 1892. His last report was to November 30th, 1892. 
He kept the account for one month, to December k 31st, and died sud¬ 
denly on January 2nd, 1893. 
On the 17th of that month Chas. P. Perot was elected Treasurer. 
He shortly after that date proceeded with the Finance Committee to 
the Camden National Bank, at Camden, N. J., where the books, 
papers and securities were kept by the late Treasurer, and after a care¬ 
ful examination found everything in good order, the cash account 
agreeing with the balance in the said bank to the credit of the Acad¬ 
emy, and the securities agreeing with the last statement rendered. 
All were then removed from Camden the same evening, the securities 
locked up in the Safe Deposit Vault of the Trust Company of North 
America in this city, and the next day a bank account was opened 
in that institution, in the name of “The Academy of Natural 
Scienes of Philadephia,” by the deposit of a check on the Camden 
National Bank for the balance due the Academy. 
The following statement is therefore made up from the accounts of 
the late Isaac C. Martindale and the present Treasurer, and shows 
the income receipts and disbursements of the separate funds named.
