We, the undersigned Auditors of the Accounts of the Vestry of the Hamlet
of Mile End Old Town in the County of Middlesex, Do hereby certify
that the aforegoing are correct abstracts of the receipts and expenditure
of the said Vestry for the year ending the 25th day of March. 1888, as
audited and allowed by us, and correct statements of the monies owing
to, and debts and liabilities owing by the said Vestry on that day, and
of all contracts entered into by the said Vestry in that year.
Note.— The expenditure of the Assessment Committee for refreshments
on one occasion of £10 11s., was unjustifiable, and the
Auditors hope that it will not occur again; but taking the whole
year through such expenditure has been reasonable.
JOHN MILLER,
GEORGE WEDLAKE,
JAMES J. MUSTO,
Auditors.
We are of opinion that the sum of £6 l1s., part of the above-mentioned
sum of £10 11s., ought to be disallowed.
