REPORT OF ExPERr.
Expert Stat.ler reported the Auditors
books correct and gave q trial balance.
There were three accounts on the books
which were . little irregular aud not
found In the forme r examination by the
experts for the reason that original ad-
vices Of apportionmsnts from the Treas.
urer to the Auditor could not be found
and those experts were compelled to
make their examination from entries IN
o book, which entries were incorrectly
copied from the original statements.
One OF these accounts was the Gold
Hill Special School Fund account. which
was opened when the special tax began
to come In and In which account all col
l~,ctions Of said tax should have been
made. This was not done and collsc'
tions and s~pportionments went alike 10
the Gold Hill School Fund. This had
been Strengthened out aud the account
now appears a. 1t should In the first
instance.
The above correction and transfers
since made from the account 10 the Gold
Hill School Fund proper make the &C
count with that fund agree with the
T~reasurer's books and. after paying q
warrant Of $l9il ga drawn December
81. 1880. which was paid January 3,
1881, leaves o balance Of STATS 10.
The other two irregular accounts were
credits to poll tax account for 1880. and
debts to Tax Collsotor's poll tax &C.
count for 1880. and these are reported
AZ Strengthened out. There was no
irrsgulsrity in the transactions and the
money was all right, but the poll tar
receipts would be obtained OF one Per
son aud the return OF coin made by
another; hence the discrepancy. The
accounts a. they stood were . nullity.
The expert Hnds the sherif's license
account correct in oil particulars.
