Society of St. Vincent De Paul

We have much pleasure in publishing the statement of accounts for 1889 of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, a society which does an immense amount of good in relieving distress in a very unostentatious manner. The accounts appear to be ina very satisfactory state, for after liberal expenditure in charity, a credit balance is carried forward to 1890 of $323.16 being within a small amount of the balance in hand at the close of 1888. It is pleasant to notice that the members do not rely entirely on donations for their income, as a goodly amount is obtained from the concerts they organise for the benefit of the Society.
