SIR, I have the honour to enclose for publication in the Government Gazette, the Cathedral Accounts for the year 1878-79, which have been audited on behalf of the seatholders and approved at *k leave, their Annual Meeting held on Thursday last. The Honourable Mr. MAY being absent .... the Accounts were unable to be placed before him for examination on the part of the Government.
I beg to inform you that, at the late Meeting, Mr. H. B. GIBB and Mr. A. P. MACEWEN were elected Trustees, and Mr. HENRY SMITH, Auditor, on behalf of the seatholders, for the ensuing year. By Section 4 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1847, it will be seen that it now becomes necessary for His Excellency the Governor to nominate four persons to be Trustees in the place of those named last year, two of whom, Mr. Justice SNOWDEN and the Honourable Mr. PHILLIPPO, are now absent.
On behalf of the retiring Trustees, I have gratefully to acknowledge the receipt of $500, liberally granted by the Government towards the recent repairs and alteration of the Cathedral.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,
EDMUND SHARP,
Trustee and Honorary Treasurer to the Body of Trustees.
