Various reasons may be given for this showing that there is no want of confidence in the Institution but the fact is important and should lead to earnest efforts for an increase of the endowment. How much has been given we cannot report. All the measures practicable under the circumstances have been used to secure this information without success. In some cases money has been paid to appointed officers and has not been transmitted to us. Of course in time all such contributions will be received. The mode of trans- � Show less
