The information furnished in this and the preceding table has reference only to the sources of income. In a number of instances the sums shown are far from representing the whole of the amounts actually expended on behalf of the objects specified, because these sums have been largely augmented by payments from the ordinary congregational revenue, which is almost wholly derived from seat rents and the ordinary collections. This explanation applies more particularly to expenditure on the old and the new buildings and their sites, Sabbath Schools, library, congregational poor fund, and students' scholarship scheme. The sum of £2000 received from the Synod in aid of the New Church building fund is not included in the two tables, nor are any other smaller sums received from the Synod on account of buildings.
