An ornate tale recounts a director of the Bank of England who lent £30,000 and deposited the note at a bank. After a year he forgot the note, and decades later a stranger demanded payment.

The director’s house was later excavated and the note recovered, leading to a legal trick by the architect to claim the amount as a bank robbery. The story weaves through a century of fortune, fate, and ironies of financial trust.
