St. Louis, Mo., 31 July 1894.
                                                A. C. Burgdorf, Treasurer.

We, the undersigned, hereby certify that this report agrees with the books, which we have audited and found correct.
St. Louis, Mo., 3 August 1894.                  J. H. Kalbfleisch Jr.
                                                R. H. Leonhardt.

Concerning the item "Darlehen" [Loan] listed in the treasurer's report, the following explanation was given: Since the funds have come in so sparingly, the Mission Commission has seen itself compelled to incur debts in order to be able to pay the salaries that were due. The debt contracted in this manner on notes issued amounts to $1317.40. In addition, then, there is still the old debt on church property, $300.00.
