MEETING OF THE PROPRIETORS OF THE BANK OF ENGLAND
September 13, 1866
(From Economist, September 22, 1866.)
A General Court of the Bank of England was held at the Bank at twelve o'clock on the 13th instant, for the purpose of declaring a dividend for the past half-year.
Mr. Launcelot Holland, the Governor of the Bank, who presided upon the occasion, addressed the proprietors as follows: This is one of the quarterly general courts appointed by our charter, and it is also one of our half-yearly general courts, held under our bye-laws, for the purpose of declaring a dividend. From a statement which I hold in my hand, it appears that the net profits of the Bank for the half-year ending on the 31st of August last amounted to £970,014 17s. 10d.,
- ↑ The Bank did not begin to receive deposits until 1792, in which year they amounted to £35,944.
