All Reservation and Memorial Endowment Funds, with the exception of The Mission House and Naumkeag, are pooled for investment purposes. Income is assigned quarterly to each fund according to its unit share of the total account. If additions are made to principal in any single account, its number of units, or share of the total, is raised proportionately, thus allowing a proportionate increase in growth and income. In the same way, each fund also shares in an appreciation of principal and in an increase of dividends. 93 Exhibit D

Mr. Richard L. Frothingham, Treasurer The Trustees of Reservations Milton, Massachusetts

Dear Mr. Frothingham:

I have examined the Balance Sheet of The Trustees of Reservations as of October 31, 1972 and the related Statements of Income and Expense and Changes in Funds for the year then ended. My examination did not include, however, an audit of the books, accounts and records of certain locally handled reservations, namely, Rocky Woods Reservation, The Old Manse and Stockbridge Mission House; otherwise the examination was made in accordance with generally accepted audit- ing standards, and included such tests of the accounting records and other auditing procedures as

I considered necessary in the circumstances.

Subject to the foregoing comments, I hereby certify that the accompanying Balance Sheet and Statements in support thereof present fairly the financial position of The Trustees of Reserva- tions at October 31, 1972 and the results of its operations for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles consistent with that of the preceding year.
