p. 19. The crop shows no column headings, so header_rows is empty; the table has two printed columns (stub plus a single amount column). A thin sliver of a line of type is clipped at the very top edge of the image (only the tops of a few commas/characters are visible), so whatever stood immediately above "Salaries" — most likely the caption or a column-head/unit line — is cut off and not transcribed. A horizontal rule separates "Taxes and assessments" from the "Grand total" line; it is a rule, not a data row. The dollar sign is printed only on the first value ($7,595,374). The printed line items sum exactly to the printed grand total of 8,989,859, which supports the digit readings. The scan renders the final word of the total line with a slightly broken "e", but it reads "expenditures".
