Of their having attacked man or some

slightest hesitation.

Lost Bank Notes.

1t is a fact, that to many minds, no
doubt must be very curious, that the
Bank Of England has always had n
pretty good source of profit in the loss

represent loss unless the crisp little

In that ease the cash paid in exchange
for them will have to come out of the
Golfers of the plundered bank, says a
London paper.
Many years ago a bank director lost
a note for 100000 But, being a man

about the loss of the bill, he gave the

There is another story of a sum or

assertion that he had bought them
was not disputed and whose personal
integrity was above suspicion. They
had. however. undoubtedly been
stolen, and on that ground the bank
refused to pay the money. The Jew
