When Mr. Baker became treasurer the funds of the corporation amounted to about $30.- 000 and they amount to nearly $100.000 now. Mr. Baker has handled the funds of this institution during this leng per- efficiency and insti- tution have been almost nvaluable and t owes him a debt of gratitude which All of the trustees bers of this board when Mr. Baker became the treasurer are now The present trustees desire to ex- our high appreciation of Mr. Ba- ker's services as treasurer of this cor- poration and as he lays down this office to express, so far as we may, the thanks itution for the long and val- ces he has rendered. This old Academy has ever been dear to Mr. Baker's heart and it has merited. well hold this office eve: iod of years with honesty sreat care.
