Excerpt from Report of the Treasurer and Receiver-General of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, for the Year Ending December 31, 1875 The unusually large balance of cash on hand at the close of the year, is owing to several causes. The revenue balance, although considerably larger than at the close of the previous year, will all be required to meet the demands upon the treasury during the ensuing five months. It may be observed, that no considerable portion of the revenue of the current year will be received into the treasury till the middle of June next.
