ANNUAL REPORT
As Auditor of the Town of Berkley, I have examined and checked in detail the books and acounts of the Town Treas- urer. The receipts were analized and compared with the col- lections as recorded in the several departments collecting money for the town, while the disbursements were checked with the selectman's warrants. The cash book was footed and the cash balance was verified by a reconciliation of the bank account with a statement furnished by the bank of deposit. I hereby certify that the information contained in this report is complete and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.

ARTHUR E. ROBBINS,
Collector of Taxes.
I have made an audit of the collector's accounts for the period from October 18, 1939 to December 31, 1939. The books in the custody of the collector were examined. The collections were compared with payment to the treasurer, and the abate- ments were checked with the assessors abatement slips. To verify the outstanding accounts, notices were sent to persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town.
I hereby certify that the information contained in this report is complete and correct, to the best of my knowledge and belief.
