Pursuant to adjournment, due notice of which had been given 
in the daily papers of Milwaukee, President Hinkley, Secretary 
Field, Treasurer Ludington and John L. Mitchell, chairman of 
I* 
the Auditing Committee, met at the Treasurer’s Office at 9 A. M., 
to continue the payment of local bills and premiums, remaining 
t in session until 6 P. M., with an adjournment from 12 M. to 1.80 
P. M. 
A very large proportion of the claims having been presented and 
paid, Secretary Field stated that it did not seem necessary for the 
board to continue longer in session, as the remaining claims could 
be adjusted by him upon application at the society’s office at Mad- 
ison, and if any action of the auditing board was required, it could 
be had at the December meeting, when the entire committee 
would probably be present. 
On motion, the board then adjourned sine die.
