We find the amount of Loans outstanding on March 25th, 1895, to be £4,461 2s. 7d.
We have examined and compared these Accounts with the Vouchers and Entries, and find the same correct. and also find
that the various Books have been kept in a most satisfactory manner. We also think it right to thank the Officers for their
courtesy and ready willingness to give all information that we desired.
27th May, 1895.
