Excerpt from A Century of Banking in Dundee: Being the Annual Balance Sheets of the Dundee Banking Company, From 1764 to 1864; Containing the Balance Sheets of Other Banks of the District, and Memoranda Concerning Scotch and English Banking During the Period This book was originally printed for private distribution among the Partners of the Dundee Banking Company as a history of that con cern, and therefore referred entirely to its affairs. But the Author, having in his possession the books of the Dundee Commercial Bank reaching from 1791 to 1801, and those of the Dundee New Bank reaching from 1802 to 1838, considered that it might be good to put on record corresponding statements respecting their transactions, as a further contribution to the statistics of the district. Having also beside him a large mass of memoranda, which, from the commence ment of his career as a banker in 1821, he had been accustomed to make for his own instruction, containing the figures relating to such events as concerned his profession, it occurred to him that these, together with the Balance Sheets of the Dundee Bank, Dundee Com mercial Bank, the Dundee New Bank, and of any others he might be able to obtain, would probably be a publication interesting to persons engaged in this branch of business, and to others having a taste for statistics. This volume, however, is not put forth under a profession of its containing a complete register of all the important events which have occurred in commercial matters, and of the valuable calculations respecting them, published in the useful form of tables, during the period referred to, either in England or in Scotland. It contains merely notes of such occurrences, and of such statements as were deemed at the time to be of moment, which were stored up as likely to be profitable to a banker, and may perhaps, however imperfect, be serviceable to others who study past events, in order to obtain wisdom for guidance in future operations.
