of "additions," was £189,594, of which £174,862 was collected.
The "irrecoverables" amounted to £12,711, or per cent., of
which £8,117, or 4¼ per cent., was due to properties being
empty.
As might have been expected from the evidence borne by
the books of the regular and periodical examination by the

correct in every respect. We have, therefore, had no hesitation

Everything has been placed before us in a straightforward
and satisfactory manner.
