The committee finds in comparing the Treasury vouchers with the assets the probable

Ide have examined the accounts and vouchers of J. \~ . Glenn, the Treasurer

I've find on ex.anunl.ng the notes and accounts of VI . F. Slaton, Principal of
the Preparatory Department that they are correct as below stated, vuth
the exception that the amount of accounts unpaid is diminished from
~~ 75 8 .09 to $540.24. This large discrepancy is according to the fact
that accounts in full are made out against beneficiary, charity, Scho1aees
