Date Created11th March 2020CommentsPam Englefield-Absolum Interesting that greenstone was being sold or going to England. I wonder what was done with the greenstone in England? Also, the interest rate Mr Molloy to Mr Fletcher was 7.5% secured by mortgage on a freehold section in Couper St, a way back then and people grumble today at 3 or 5%

Del Godfrey Great book keeping! You knew where every cent went!

Anne Honey See the bank got it's fees even then
