REPORT OF AUDITING COMMITTEE.
December 27, 1889.
To the National Geographic Society:
The undersigned, having been appointed an auditing committee to examine the account of the Treasurer for 1889, make the following report:
We have examined the Treasurer's books and find that the receipts as therein stated are correctly reported. We have compared the disbursements with the vouchers for the same and find them to have been properly approved and correctly recorded. We have examined the bank account and compared the checks accompanying the same. We find the balance (beside the sum of $756.25 invested in real estate note) as reported by the Treasurer ($63.82) consistent with the balance as shown by the bankbook ($82.82), the difference being explained by the fact that there are two outstanding checks for the sum of $19.00 not yet presented for payment.
