Excerpt from The Thirty-Fifth National Encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, Cleveland, 1901: Reports of the Citizens Committees Together With the Addresses Made at the Two McKinley Meetings Held in Cleveland on Sept; 12 and 19, 1901
Very little comment upon these figures is perhaps necessary. It is a source of much satisfaction on the part of all those who have had to do with the financial management that it is possible to report a cash balanceon hand, after all expenses are paid. This result was only obtained by very careful supervision of expenses as they were contracted, and by the very careful auditing that was insisted upon in respect to each separate bill made.
Nothing pertaining to the entertainment of the old soldiers that could have been done was omitted. Every possible contingency was foreseen and taken care of so that when the encampment week arrived, over 90 per cent. Of the total expenditures had been contracted for. This indicated the great care with which each of the sub-committee made its plans. Very few arrangements had to be made at the last moment. N ot only did this result in the successful entertainment of our guests, but it also tended to bring about the economical expenditure of funds.
