Special Accountant Report
Eureka, Nevada, July IL, 1913.
To the Hon. Board of County Com
missioners of Eureka County, Ne
vada.
Gentlemen | hand you herewith
my balance sheet covering the period
January | to June 80, 1913, inclusive,
showing the balance of each County
official who has a balance still on his
books to be accounted for.
There is but little to add by way
of report. You will note that my
balance does not agree with that OF
Auditor and Treasurer as shown on
their last quarterly ending June 30.
The difference is 81 and is due to an
error of both Auditor and Treasurer.
In registering the warrants for
month of February, Auditor booked
| No. TOOL as $3.50 instead of $3.50,
the correct figures. He then put
his book figures through the machine
instead of using the warrant figures
as a check against his own work IN
booking.
The Treasurer should have caught
this error. He entered this warrant
correctly in his books, but in some
way entered footings or totals to
agree with Auditor and accepted
Auditors balance as correct when a
very slight check back on his own
work would have caught the error.
This mistake left the cash Sl.OZ
over. The .02 is the odd cents OF Us
is .05 and .O2 is nothing and the one
dollar accounted for by the error as
mentioned above.
The debts shown on balance sheet
against Assessor and Sheriff are col
lections not turned in to Treasury up
to June 80. These amounts have
been turned in since that tlme' put
as my permit did not allow me TO go
beyond that date, | leave them as
debts to be considered by next Ac-
countant.
Money collected for State licenses
by Sheriff is fully accounted for by
commissions, exchange and receip's
from State Treasurer.
