Content

The letter goes on to detail the remittance Joseph Charles Edwards has sent on his behalf relating to his pay and his losses in both the Bank of Bombay and the Commercial Bank which will cause him difficulties for several years and his feeling that the bank was already nearly bankrupt when he got his shares.
