In fact at the end of March the rent collection accounts were approximately correct, so far as could be seen without an examination of all the details: on March 28th. and April 8th. or 9th. sums of $282.80 and $432.80 were drawn as salary from the Treasury by the shroffs, after Ng Hung Fu had drawn these salaries from the money in hand; while on April 4th. the sum of $273.23 was paid in to Taipo and not accounted for by the shroff. These sums deducted from the estimated deficit of $1,092.15, leave a discrepancy of $113.32, which is not a large proportion of a total of $80,000 which had to be collected for the first time in full, and for whose collection no proper machinery existed.
