Note 372 — Chapter XI · THE BETRAYER OF LORD EDWARD FITZGERALD[284]
Reading edition
A run had been made on La Touche's Bank, and great fears were expressed lest it should break. At last Lord Limerick, who as Sexten Pery had been popular, took his stand at the counter, and when people saw him paying out the gold, confidence became restored.—His kinsman, Aubrey de Vere, to the Writer.
