There being none; the report will stand approved as presented. Mr. Hatcher said that he felt this past Old Christmas was one of the, if not the most successful ones we had had in several years. We had around sixty people in attendance; and, these were the ones who had signed in. He felt there might have been more than that and that all did not sign in as they were asked to after some had entered the House.
