If however the Bank did mystericusly possesʊ all these parti-

oulars of a business belonging to thers, how is it that they did not

know the vital fact that Messrs. kelas were absolutely debarred from ap-

post, was prepared to recognize Mesurs, keles a Co., provided they be

appointed by Company's agents both at Hongkong and Venton.

Bộ that not only did we offer to appoint this firm our sɛents, but proposed to give them a far stronger held upon this business, name

ly to admit them sa a party to the Texas Agreement itself,
