A great deal of credit is due Miss Currie, assistant clerk. for In renting to the account Mr Wil- liams”: said it did not nearly cover his 6 “.enses. His time alone would amount to $1100 or 812%. He was how.ver, morally obligated to that fee in a. promise made to Mayor Begg that he would untangle the town’s afiairs. His regular charge was seven dollars a. day of eleven hours ...... The report was, on motion, receivâ€" ed, and it will be placed in the hands of a. committee consisting of His Wor- ship Mayor Bea], Reeve Vrooman and Ald. Smalev, Chairman of the Fin- ance Committee. Both Mr. Williamson and Mr. Hig- gins thought the report should be published. One weakness in the past, Mr. Hig- gins said, was the lack of rigid in- spection of accounts. This was the crux of s’the whole situation. The town’s only guaranflee in the future was in having these recommendations followed out with a. View 'to guarding against fraud. Mr. Williamsonzs account for the. special audit ($1,500) waspresented to the mec"ng. He commenced the work on O( . 15th Imd has been five months < 1 the Job He had received i 8600 on r count. Dr. Vrooman, in referring to the report, and the excellent manner In which it was prepared, said it would prove a valuable’ asset to the clesk's office. Mr. Dobson said it would bring a, great deal of credit on the aud- itors if they had it published. The audit, Mr. fligglm said. had been completed to the end of Decem- ber. with a balance sheet, as- sets and‘ liabilities and deben- ture liabilities. Some fifty re- co mendations had also been made as a. result 0: due deliberatiov and care. There were reasons for t :em all It was of the utmost impor‘ance for the Council to follow these out. There was not one. but what was made aft-- er careful thought. In response to a. query from Mr- Horn, Mr. Williamson said he felt satisfied that there were no outstand- ing debentures. \ Mr. Higgins pointed out that if the audit was conducted under Governâ€" ment auspices. the rate would be $8 a day, and the expenses would run up to $2,500. Mr. Higgins said the audit had reâ€" vealed a shocking state of aflairs. It was necessary to go back twenty-one lyears in order to get a true statement 3of the defalcations, which were appar- ‘ent in almost every branch. Many other irregularities were suggested. but .there was nosupporting evidence available. In the work of preparing the report, personalities had been avoided in laying the blame for the unfortunate state at aflairs. The point now was for all to devote their ener- gies to safeguard the town in the future. â€"â€"-R.

Three reportsvwere prepared, one for the Government, one for the Council and a copy for Mr. Wihiameon. They were splendidly bound, and the compilation could not have been better. The reports of conditions in the difierent branches were arranged in a splendid manner and the report on the whole is made out with a view to making it clear and comprehen. sive in every respect. The information imparted revealed a serious condition of things in ah branches of the municipal machinery. and, as Mr. Horn remarked, during the evening, “the Council has its work cut out.” The Auditor’s report has been prepared with great care and gives eviâ€" dence of the fact that considerable time has been spent in compiling it. It is most concise and thorough and is a tribute to those who were as- sociated with the work. Condition of Town’s Affaiis Presented In Concise and Comprehensive Form. (From Thursday’s Post. The long-looked-lor and anxiously awaited report of Special Auditor Williamson 0:. the accounts of the municipality of the Town of Lindsay for three years ending December slat, 1910, was presented to the Council last evening in 5 special session by Mr. Fred Higgins, of the firm of Wil- liamson Higgins, who read the report through, and with the assistance of Mr. Williamson, explained many of the dlflerent items relerred to. The session of ‘the Council lasted .until 11.30 o’clock, the greater Dart of the time being taken up with the reading of the report.

We cannot too strongly urge upon the present Council the necessity for care- fully considering the matters conâ€" tained in this report and making some one person responsible for insti- tuting the necessary changes."
