REPORT of the AUDITORS to the VESTRY,
Respecting the Accounts for the Year ending March 25, 1878.
In auditing the several Books and Vouchers
belonging to the Rates and Vestry Accounts for the
year ending March 25th, 1878, we have again great
pleasure in bearing testimony to the excellent manner
111 which they have been kept.
We also desire to acknowledge the uniform
attention which we have received from each of the
Vestry Officials connected with them during the
examination.
The Auditors would again draw attention to the
advisability of issuing special Receipts in cases where
only parts of the quarter's Rates are paid, and in
cases where the Vestry Rates had been excused and
the Poor Rates had been paid, as recommended in
their Report of 1877, believing that such an arrangement
is fast becoming a necessity, as the same
difficulty we experienced in auditing last year was
more apparent this year, and will become more and
more so as the Parish increases.
