BOND OF BANK OF BENGAL VERY RARE FOR SALE 1843

IN dealing with the incidents of the Bank's History,

the perusal of the  voluminous records relating to particular points, has been almost entirely refrained from, and  is left to form such opinion as he may from the bare record of events. Every care has been taken to ensure accuracy as to details, but, as regards one or two items, .and in particular, containing a list of the Bank's Officers since 1806, reliable information has been difficult to secure, and approximate accuracy is the best that can be attained. Events have, as far as possible, been dealt with in the order in which they occurred, but, in some instances, particularly in the last two or 'three Chapters, it has been found necessary to describe in one place various items extending over a long period, and

exact chronological sequence has been sacrificed to geuera-1 expediency
