TRUST FUNDS.
Herewith is a statement of the Trust Funds in possession of the town and the disposition made of the same :
THE COL. THOMAS NESMITH FUND.
One thousand dollars was given to the town by Mr. Nes- mith in May, 1871. This fund is invested in the Town of Windham, and six per cent. interest is paid annually for the purchase of books for the Nesmith Library.
GEORGE WILSON FUND.
One thousand dollars was given to the town by Mr. Wil- son, Jan. 21, 1893, the income to be used in beautifying and fertilizing the cemetery on the hill. The fund was deposited in the Mechanics Bank of Nashua. In about three months after the deposit was made the bank was put into the hands of a receiver. Two dividends of 15 per cent. each and one of ten per cent. have since been paid by the bank, the bal- ance still remaining, with prospect of another small dividend in the future.
Mr. Wilson kindly supplemented his gift by sending a check in May, 1896, for five hundred dollars, to make good to the town the possible loss on the deposit. This $500 is invested in the Town of Windham.
DORA HASELTINE FUND.
Five hundred dollars was given to the town in May, 1896, by Dora Haseltine, and six per cent. interest to be paid an- nually for the care of the "Cemetery on the Plain." It is in- vested in the Town of Windham.

ARMSTRONG MEMORIAL FUND.
One thousand dollars was given to the town in 1899 by George W. Armstrong. The income to be used in and about the Armstrong Memorial building.
This fund was invested in five shares of the capital stock of the Pullman Car Company. Quarterly dividends of ten dollars each have since been received. A report of the use of these dividends will be found in the report of the Treas- urer of the Board of Library Trustees.
