Note 188-2 — Chapter IV
John J. (John Joseph) Lalor translation
Numberless bankrupts and unbounded extravagance in Holland. (Richesse de Hollande, II, 168.) In England, the hazardous enterprises of 1825 were very much promoted by the action of the government which a short time before reduced the interest on its state debt. (Tooke, History of Prices, II, 148 ff.)
