DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF GORDON A CAMMETT, SR.

The Board of Selectmen hereby dedicates the 1984 Annual

Report to the memory of Gordon A. Cammett, Sr., in commemoration of the service given by him to our town.

It is our feeling that Gordon held a special love for Raymond, which he showed by committing himself to helping others

publicly in his tenure as a Selectman and privately in his dealings with the individual citizens of our community.

Gordon engraved himself into the character and history of Raymond during his lifetime with his own unique humor and character. The record ot many of his actions will live

on. as will our memories of him.

Although a loss has been buttered with Gordon's passing, the recognition of his place as a part of Raymond's heritage

is assured.

To the Members of the Board of Selectmen Town of Raymond Raymond, New Hampshire

We have examined the combined financial statements and the combining, individual fund and account group financial statements of the Town of Raymond, New Hampshire as of and for the year ended December 31 1984, as listed in the table of contents. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.

The Trustees of Trust Fund's records were incomplete and are not included in this report. They will be examined at a later date and a separate audit report will be issued covering these funds.

As described in Note IB, the combined financial statements referred to above do not include financial statements of the General Fixed Asset Group of Accounts which should be included to conform with generally accepted accounting principles.

In our opinion, except that omission of the General Fixed Asset Group of Accounts results in an incomplete presentation, as explained in the above paragraph, and the omission of the Trustees of Trust Fund's records, the combined financial statements and the combining, individual fund and account group financial statements referred to above present fairly the financial position of the Town of Raymond, New Hampshire at December 31, 1984 and the results of its operations for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

Our examination was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the combined financial statements taken as a whole and on the combining, individual fund and account group financial statement. The accompanying financial information listed as supplemental schedules in the table of contents is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the combined financial statements of the Town of Raymond, New Hampshire. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the examination of the combined, combining, individual fund and account group financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the combined financial statements taken as a whole.

ACCOUNTANT'S REPORT ON FINANCIAL PRESENTATION

To the Members of Che School Board Raymond School District Raymond, New Hampshire

We have examined the combined financial statements and the combining fund and account group financial statements of the Raymond School District as of and for the year ended June 30, 1984, as listed in the accompanying table of contents. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances

As described in Note IB, the combined financial statements referred to above do not include financial statements of the General Fixed Asset group of accounts, which should be included to conform with generally accepted accounting principles.

In our opinion, except that omission of the General Fixed Asset group of accounts results in an incomplete presentation as explained in the above paragraph, the combined financial statements and the combining fund and account group financial statements referred to above present fairly the financial position of the Raymond School District at June 30, 1984 and the results of its operations for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

Our examination was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the combined financial statements taken as a whole. The combining fund and account group financial statements and supplemental schedules listed in the table of contents are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the combined financial statements of the Raymond School District. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the examination of the combined financial statements and, in our opinion, is stated fairly in all material respects in relation to the combined financial statements taken as a whole.
