NRS-10884 | Quarterly abstracts of disbursements with supporting vouchers

Full description

At the end of each quarter, the Storekeeper wrote out an abstract of disbursements made by his department, giving details of dates of payment, description or nature of services for which payments were made, voucher number and amount of payment. This was followed by a declaration by the Storekeeper as to the accuracy of the statement. The present series consists of triplicate copies of these abstracts. Each abstract is bound with copies of all relevant vouchers in numerical order by voucher number.

The supporting vouchers are for claims for travelling allowances, bills for sums of money due for contracts fulfilled, copies of cash vouchers, statements of allowances paid to assigned persons, with copies of letters authorising payment of moneys. The relevant vouchers are bound with each abstract which are arranged in chronological order.

(4/4496-507, 4/489). 13 vols.
