LYMAN B. FISKE, Auditor.To the Board of Directors Harvard Dining Association, Cambridge, Mass.

REPORT OF AUDITING COMMITTEE.CAMBRIDGE, Dec. 13th 1882.

To the members of the Harvard Dining Association :

The auditing committee of the board of directors, having examined the books of the association, respectfully report that the increase in the price of board for November over that for October seems to them to be due to the following causes :

1. The number of members in the association is smaller.

2. Some bills that should have been presented Nov. 1st, the auditor was unable to obtain till the middle of November. Allowance was made for these in the October statement, but the steward's estimate on which the allowance was made fell considerably short of the true amount. The surplus of these bills over the allowance is charged to the November account.

3. The natural increase in the amount of coal and gas consumed at this season.

4. An advance in the market price of a few necessaries, such as butter and eggs.
