In the annual reports we find a survey of the financial position of the foundation, a survey of bequests, a survey of the departments throughout the country and the number of members, the number of 'Kweekelingen' [students, pupils] enrolled in the year. Meeting 48 held in July 1840 mentions the festivities planned for the celebration of 50 years 'Instituut Guyot', which will have a sober character, due to the untimely death of Mrs. A.M.L.Cremers, September 1839.
