AUDITORS' CERTIFICATE.
We hereby certify that, we have carefully examined the accounts and books of
counts of the Board of Works for the Fulham District, for the year ending
5th March, 1864, and have compared them with the vouchers, and find the
Overal receipts and entries thereof to be correct; we also certify to the correct-:ss of the abstract of accounts, together with the assets and liabilities to the
veral parishes.
We found a balance at the bankers at the commencement of the year of the
aim of £1763: 3: 0, and at the close of the audit we leave a balance of
451: 9: 3, the liabilities of each parish being clearly shewn in the abstracts
to be published.
We find that the balances due from the Overseers of Hammersmith on
recepts dated the 17th June, 1863, amount to £1150 11 9
and from Fulham Overseers on precepts of the same date 1602 13 2
a Total of £2753 4 11
And we take this opportunity of suggesting to the Board a more speedy
settlement of their precepts, as an act of justice to all parties. The Board:ould then have a sufficient balance to pay their accounts, and those ratelayers
leaving the District before the closing of the several rates would not
cape their just parochial liabilities.
