This was $652 short of the amount charged by the stockman, Swanny Kerby. However, there was a balance in the account from last year, so the committee will be able to meet outstanding expenses. The stockman's fee included the awarding of prize money, etc., so the committee had only a minor scattering of small expenses. |
