get discounted at a Boston bank,
which had agreed to act as the
Boston correspondent of his bank.
With the proceeds of these
notes the new bank would at once
take out circulation, and when
the notes became due the bank
would take them up and the max

they pleased at the new bank. The
scheme worked to a charm. that

proceeds at once purchased gov
