mismanaged for several years before its
failure, and that the blame rested main
ly upon the President. He appears to
have successfully deceived the commit
tees appointed from time to time to ex
amine and report the company's condi
tion; such an examination was made in
November, 1877. and the report submit
ted given to the city press in December;
that report, Mr. Constant affirms, falsi
fied the condition of the Company to the
amount of $700,000; it is, therefore, hard
to believe the unsupported allegations
of Mangam, Orvis, and others, that the
company was wrecked by Mr. Best, in
the hope that he would be appointed
Receiver. So far from having abused
his position and powers, in the manner
charged, he appears to have acted with
commendable skill in ascertaining the
liabilities, and in placing upon the assets
a valuation of all they were worthy in De
cember, 1877. "; ' : - . . '
