The above are copies Of two papers fur
nishcd by Mr.. Spence to the Committee. The
first drawn of is copy Of an old paper made
out by Mr.. Mosby, short time before Mr..
Crozier went out of Office. Mr.. Mosby is con
frmcd in this statement by Mr.. Crozicr, and
Mr.. Spence says it was made out at his in
stance and request. (See their dcpositions)
This paper is designated throughout the report
a the old paper. and was evidently made out
with much care and particularly, furnishing
evidence of the number aud character of the
Bonds on deposit. 1t exhibits the number of
the Capitol, regular State, Internal Improve
ment, and endorsed Bonds:
1t sho IS 60 Capitol, 40 regular state, &c Internal
Improvement. lS2
And $50 endorsed Bonds. $50
Making sum total OF Isl Bonds without sealing ZSZ
This paper also shows two items OF State
Bonds at the bottom, one for six, the other for
ten, making I6 Bonds which Mr.. Mosby says
is not in his handwriting and was not fur
nished by him; but were entered by Mr.
Spence. (See Spence's deposition.) Taking
tie aggregate amount of these bonds, when
scaled to per cent Bonds of $1,000 each, we
find it to be S26s, ass 33, as will be seen by
reference to said paper
Down to certain point it shows Bonds
scaled and footed up amounting to $2O3, 49,
$50, corresponding with amount in report of
Mr.. Crozicr, 10th Oct, 1855, S2O3.45S. as
will be seen by reference to the Journal of
that year.
This old paper exhibits, as stated by Mr..
Spence, the full amount of Bond deposited
during Mr.. Crozier's administration. In the
report made by Mr.. Spence to the Committee,
(see last copy above given,) the aggregate
amount of Bonds deposited in Mr.. Crozicr's
administration, he states them TO be 292. (See
first footing on left side of copy.) These
Bonds, when scaled, amount to S27S, 45S 33.
(See right hand side of copy.) We see, then
these two papers differ to the amount of ten
Bonds, or ten thousand dollars in the aggre-
gate, and the same difference in amount ey-
lists when scaled. to-wit. Mr.. Spence's report
to the Committee shows the aggregate amount
OF Bonds deposited with Mr.. Crozier to be
s29a.0O0. Old paper shows aggregate num-
Der deposited, during the same time, to be
S2S2,00 showing difference in the amount
of ten Bonds, $4,000. These Bonds, when
scaled, show the same difference.
These two papers differ also in other par
ticulars, and show difference, not only in
the number, but in the character of the Bonds.
Report to the Committee shows, deposited
during Mr.. Crozier's term State Bonds, Sl42,-
OOO- This is the aggregate number without
scaling. Old papers show Bonds of same
character Sl32,000. Report to Committee
shows these same Bonds when sealed, to be
Sl2s, 45S; old paper shows same character of
Bonds, when scaled, to be SllS,45S. The
same number of endorsed Bonds, to-wit: $50.
is exhibtedin each paper.
These two papers differ so materially in the
number and character of the Bonds, in the
aggregate amounts, and amounts when scaled.
that it is apparent Mr.. Spence did not refer to
the old paper in making this report 10 the
Committee. (See last copy.)
Again the memorandum book furnished the
Committee by Mr.. Spence, copy of which is
herein contained, shows the amount of Bonds
deposited with Mr. Crozier to be, when seated
to per cent Bonds, of $1,000 each. s27s,-

10 Mr.. Spence's statement, is the only book !

Mr.. Spence's first withdrawal Of Bonds. as 1
shown by memorandum book, was in April,
1851; the whole amount of Withdrawals, when
scaled, as shown by memorandum book. and
also By report to Committee, Is s267. 4ss /

'afhis would be the number OF bonds Mr..
Spence would be entitled To now, provided
Mr.. Crozieris report was correct, and pro-
vided, also, Mr.. Spenee's memorandum book

that date, viz: the month of October, 1856. II
