| "Paid John Behe in full for Sacristy |
$360.54" |
From this account it will be seen that H. Harber was the contractor.
It will be observed that the amount docked is added to $7,600.00, the amount Mr. Harber received. The logical statement would have been to foot up contract price $7,200 and $500 extra for sacristy - $7,700 and then deduct $100 from the entire amount. The result would have been the same; but the latter procedure is the more easily understood.
