Dear Brother: In harmony with your request, I have completed a thorough audit of the books of your Treasury Department for the year ending Dec. 31, 1912. Also, checked all accounts affecting the cash to date of audit (March 25, 1913). The cash in hand harmonizes with the amount demanded by the cash-account, and the several banks with which money is on deposit acknowledged balances in accord with your books, taking into consideration outstanding checks not cashed by the banks at the date of balance. GCB May 18, 1913, page 30.4

Entries covering the receipts were checked from original correspondence, and I found the same properly recorded. Satisfactory vouchers, receipted invoices, and statements cover the disbursements. I find the books in balance, and accounts are kept in a very satisfactory manner. GCB May 18, 1913, page 30.5

I have checked the statements herewith submitted, and I am pleased to certify to their correctness. They reveal the condition of the various accounts. It is gratifying to see the General Conference in such excellent condition financially. GCB May 18, 1913, page 30.6

In submitting this report, I desire to express my appreciation for the courtesies extended to me during this audit by all connected with your Treasury Department. GCB May 18, 1913, page 30.7

May the year 1913 bring to the cause of God additional prosperity financially as well as great spiritual blessing. GCB May 18, 1913, page 30.8

Sincerely your brother,
R. T. DOWSETT, Auditor.
