...shown that although the auditor's monthly report exhibits approximately what the rate of board is, still an average of the monthly reports can not be taken as showing the price of board for the whole term.

As a fact, it is easily shown from the figures used by the auditor in computing the price for this term, that the cost of board for January, and the few days of December which come into this term, was more than...
Without filling the page with the figures which I have in hand I will simply say that the term bill price has never, except in one instance, in the past two years (the only ones I have investigated) agreed with the averages of the monthly statements.
