The effort of the management has
been to make this collection with as
little inconvenience to the public as
possible, giving everyone an oppor
tunity to subscribe, but worrying nc

In making this report it is a plea
sure to publicly acknowledge its ap

workers, whose enthusiastic efforts
made possible this successful con
clusion. In thanking the people gen
orally for their contributions eth

opportunity to offer further evidence
of Berkeley's response to our coun
try's call.
