the trenches by his legs and arms. The
total loss of the regiment was 1853 During
the 40 the Forty-third were in England,
being told off to watch the south coast
where French descent was daily ex-
pected. They We're thus happily exempt
ed from the painful duty of sharing in the
Culloden campaign. Some shrewd observ-
ers at the time doubted whether the rising
would have taken place if this organized
force of loyal clansmen had been allowed
to remain in the dsaffected regions.

the French war he unhesitatingly
aned him every penny in the vaults. In
t1turn for this favor the government
made itself responsible for the return of
the money, and so the Bank of England
came into existence.
Afterwards parliament tried to pay the
debt and free itself from "the bank" but
so earnest and anxious were the people
to have it continue so that they could
have a safe place for their money, that
it finally became a permanent institution.
In all the jubilee parade no more his
toric or picturesque position was passed
than the square on which the Bank of
England stands.
It occupies a whole block, and, though
it is only one story high, it is a massive,
impressive looking building. 1t Is located
In the very heart of London. Across the
street is the Mansion house. On it's left
front is the royal exchange, while on the
big asphalted roadway in front half
dozen streets pour out their stream of
people. Broad, Lombard, Cornhill, King
William, Cheapside and Queen Victoria
streets all lead to the Bank of England.
AS is necessary, when the credit of a ma
ton is at stake, the Bank of England is
conducted on the most upright, even law
lsh, principles. Its notes are paid as
united States government bonds are paid,
and indeed mean much the same thing,
as lar as the nations credit Is concerned.
There are many romantic stories con-
hected with the Bank of England. One
Is Of a bank director who, in 1740 deposi-
yea $4,000 and took out from the cashier a
note. He went home laid the note on the
tdoIe and fell asleep. When he awoke it
was gone. He believed it had blown into
Inc hre. He made affidavit to this effect
ana received the money back Thirty
years after he died the note was present.
