Money and poetry

[C.Sardoni@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

"He told me I might lodge the Money in the Bank as an Account, and its

being entred in the Books would entitle me to the Money at any time, and if
I was in the North might draw Bills on the Cashire and receive it when I
would; but that then it would be esteem'd as running Cash, and the Bank
would give no Interest for it; that I might buy Stock with it, and so it
would be lye in store for me, but that then if I wanted to dispose of it, I
must come up to Town on purpose to Transfer it, and even it would be with
some difficulty I should receive the half yeraly Dividend, unles I was here
in Person, or had some friend I could trust with having the Stock in his
Name to do it for me" (D. Defoe, Moll Flanders, p. 127)
