bills for collection were examined and verified by com- parison with the reports and records in the office of the town accountant.
The books and accounts of the town accountant were examined and checked. The cash receipts as recorded were checked with the available departmental records and with the treasurer's books, while the payments were compared with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the disbursement of town funds and with the treasurer's records.
The ledger accounts were analyzed, the appropri- ation accounts were checked with the amounts voted by the town as shown by the town clerk's record of town meetings, the transfers from the reserve fund were com- pared with the amounts authorized by the finance commit- tee, while other accounts were checked with information in the various departments in which the transactions originated.
