Definition of TRAVELLERS CHEQUIL—
“The syrbom of Immie Choques vas originated in 1891 by the American Exprém Company with the object of creating a form of travel currency which would give the holder the security of a letter of credit and st the same time the conveniencà of loes! currency. The Company registered the cheques under the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES' the word 'Travellers' being spelled with one "I". The advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system.'
