Stock Purchases and a Holding Balance in a Parliamentary Inquiry
The passage details stock transactions by Knight and Weymondfold with East-India and South-Sea stocks, showing large sums paid by a gentleman and a balance owed. It cites a letter ordering Weymondfold to buy stock, read before the enquiry, as strong evidence that the other gentleman funded the purchases and bore the risks. The narrative notes this evidence as clearer light into the transaction.
