We have examined the financial statements of the Town of Clinton, its
local boards and municipal enterprises for the year ended December 31, 1977.
Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards and accordingly included such tests and other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances.
In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly the financial
position of the Town of Clinton, its local boards and municipal enterprises
as at December 31, 1977 and the results of its 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;
