REPORT OF AUDITING COMMITTEE. 
Washington, December 31 , 1889. 
To the Philosophical Society of Washington : 
The undersigned, a committee appointed at the annual meet¬ 
ing of the Philosophical Society of Washington, December 21, 
1889, for the purpose of auditing the accounts of the Treasurer, 
respectfully report as follows : 
We have examined the account of receipts, including dues, 
sales, and interest, and find the same to be correct and satis¬ 
factory. We have examined the statement of disbursements, 
compared it with the vouchers, and find that they agree. We 
have examined the returned checks, which agree with the 
vouchers and with the bank book, the balance of which, as re¬ 
ported by Riggs & Co. on December 24, 1889, was $1,408.58, 
agreeing with the Treasurer’s report. We have examined the 
United States and other bonds belonging to the Society and find 
them to be in amount and character as represented in the Treas¬ 
urer’s report, aggregating $3,100.
