1t will be noticed that the member
ship table gives a total of sixty-two
deaths for the year, but that benefits
had been paid for only sixty. The rea-
son for this apparent discrepancy is
that two benefits for which assessments
have been laid and the money collected
had not been called up to the time of
closing the accounts for the year. Set
Elements Of the same will be made at
any time when the proper vouchers are
returned to the secretary, which will
probably be at an early date and will
be accounted for in the next report
The amount paid for death benefits
during the year just closed is the larg
est sum ever appropriated for that pur-
pose in any year of our organization,
and had all benefits been called for
the sum would have been $10O,O The
grand total of benefits paid on account
of S1S deaths now reaches the sum Of
Isis, 1888, and the cost to the deceased
has been $2O3, $500 and this volume of
business has been transacted without
friction or litigation. No death has
been questioned and no benefit denied
all matters having been adjusted in full
accord with our laws, and so far as
We are aware, to the full satisfaction of
the benfciaries in each case.
