Village of Hensall and its local boards, which are listed on the attached Index. Our
examination included a general review of the accounting procedures and such test of

the Corporation of the Village of Hensall and its local boards as at December 31st,
1977, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted for Ontario municipalities applied on a
basis consistent with that of the preceding year.
