PRESENTED TO THE SOCIETY, JANUARY 9, 1891.


To the President and Members of the National Geographic Society:

We, a committee appointed at the annual meeting of the Society to audit the accounts of the Treasurer for the rear ending December 31, 1890, beg to submit the following report:

The statement of the receipts, consisting of dues from members, receipts from lectures, interest on loan and sale of magazines, has been examined and found correct.

The vouchers for expenditures and checks in payment therefor have been examined, compared and found correct.

We have examined the bank book, showing the account with Messrs. Bell & Co., and found the balance to be $41.62 as stated.
