AUDITORS’ CERTIFICATE

We Report to the Sharholders 'of The Royal Bank of

Canada:

That in our opinion the transactions of the Bank which

have come under our notice have been within the powers nt the' Bank.

That we- have checked the cash and verified the securi-

ties of the Bank at the Chief Office at 30th November, 1910, ss well as' at another' time, as required by Section 56 of the Bank Act _and that we found they agreed with the entries in the books in regard thereto. We also during the year checked the' cash and verified' the securities at the princi- pal branches.

That the above Balance Sheet has been compared' by us

with the books at the Chief Ofilce- and with the certified returns from the' Branches, and in our opinion is' properly drawn up so as to exhibit a true and correct view of the state of the Bank's affairs according to the best of our ln- formation andthe explanations given to \is.and as shown by the books of the Bank.

That. we have obtained all the information and' explan-

ations' required by us.
