| Description | Letter written by James Murray, advocate, Aberdeen, to Lewis Robertson, writer, Banff, reporting on recent meeting held in Aberdeen to discuss the establishment of a new bank in the city. It is ‘considered by many to promise uncommonly well - my own opinion is, that tho’ it may ultimately turn out well, I cannot suppose (considering the great difficulty of disposing of Capital at present and the great expense attending the outset of such an Establishment) that the partners will get great return for their money for a considerable time at least’. |
