THIS mode Of keeping the account is perfectly sinipe

means IL gives TO him the habit of order in his aiIars

the best evidence your Committee afford you of
economy on the part of those charged with the admins

From the Statement, made will be perceived that the

so. III is with regret your Committee inform YOU that

nehts cmanating from it considered they are onlv
surprised that so much advantage be gained a, such
