Full Description:
Gordon and Crowder to John Smith. New York. There is no money in hand but have paid Mr Barrow and Mr Thomas about £80,000 sterling more than has been remitted from England. This sum they have borrowed on their own private security. They do not think it possible to raise even £50,000 without giving a premium of 15 or 20 per cent.
