them, wi th a view to se ei ng how far they would throw ligh t uponthe early h is tory of

The first of the set —a thin vo lumo —was pub l i s hed in 1677 ; the se cond di d not appear

“ John

Buckner went to a house in Cheaps ide, where he paid unto M r. Edward Backw e ll’s servant thesumof (cure hundred pounde s upona bond .

"

Fromthe State Papers we find Backwell w as employed to carry ou t some ne w coinage. In1 656

we read i t w as the Counc il’s intent ion to u se bul l ion suppl ied by Edward Backwel l. I t was to betakeninto the M int, andmade into coinby Peter Blondeau, w i th milled edge and Cromwell ’s head.

During the next year we find a large quanti ty of bu l l ion, wh ich V iner and Backwell had contractedw ith the Counc il to supply, was coined intomoney.

Backwell w as elected A ldermanof Bishopsgate Ward onJanuary 3 1 , 1 657 .

During the Commonweal th he usually paid 6 per cent. for money ondepos i t ; and th e ordinaryprice of s ilver w as from55. 611. to 53 . 7d. pe r ounce .Backwell was paymaster and treasurer of the Dunk irk garrison from the days of Cromwel l unti l

that townw as sold to the French k ing in1 662 . A ll themoney expended there was suppl ied by him,

he receiving Exchequer tal l ies inpayment . InFebruary, 1 659, he was paid ina very unusualmanner.I t is recorded inone of h is ledgers that he rece ived of the Commi ttee of Parl iament by old plate ,1 529 1 1 . 02.

His old book s are ful l of interest ing and valuable accounts for plate and jewel s suppl ied by h imduring the Protectorate and reignof Charles II.

Pepys ment ions the name of Edward Backwel l no less thantw entya s ix t imes. — OnJu ly 6, 1 665,he record s : “ A ldermanBackwell is ordered abroad upon some private score w i th a great sumofmoney whereinI was instrumental the other day insh ipping away. It seems some of h is cred i torshave takennotice of it, and he was l ike to be broke yesterday inhi s absence Sir G. Carteret tell ingme that the K ing and the K ingdommust as good as fal l w ith that great manat th is t ime ; and thathe was forced to ge t£4000 himself to answer Backw e ll’s people occas ions, or hemus t have broke ;bu t commi tted th is tome as a great secret.

”

A fe w days afterwards (on the 26th ) Pepys says :“ Whil s t Backwell i s s til l inFlanders , poor

RobinShaw, h is righ t—hand man, di ed of the plague."

Th e K ing himsel f inqu ired abou t Shaw, and, being told h e was de ad,"

sai d he was very sorry for it.And again, on November 23 , 1 665, Pepys -was w i th A ld ermanBackwell

,talk ing of the ne w

money, wh ich he bel ieves w il l never be counterfeited bu t i t is so deadly inconvenient for tell ing ;i t i s so thick

,and the edges are made to turnup.

”

OnJune 1 3, 1 667, Pepys records a runuponBackw e ll’s house : “ They are so cal led uponformoney that they w i l l be all broke, hundreds coming to themfor money and they answer h im

,i t i s

payable at twenty days — whenthe days are out, we w i l l pay you and those that are not so, theymake tel l over thei rmoney and make their bags false, onpurpose to gi ve cause to retel l i t and sospend time. I cannot havemy 200 pieces of gold aga infor s i lver, all being bought up last nigh t thatwere to be had

,and sold for 245. and 255. a pi ece. So I mus t keep the s i lver byme

,wh ich sometimes

I th ink to fling into the house of oth ee, and then again know nothow I shall come by it, i f we bemade to leave th e office .

”Th e house weathered that storm, as the same authority s tates that h e

cal led onBackwell onM ay 3 , 1 668, when the banker told h im how he had bough t an estate at

Bucke w orth , w i th infourmi les of BramptoninHunts .By a Privy Seal i ssued October 2 1

,1 661 , in the favour of Backwell, was ordered for

the pay of the garrisonof Dunkirk . The garrison consi s ted of 4400 sold iers, bes ides office rs , ands ix troops of horse and themonthly charge thereof w as 5587 1 8 1 35. 4d. permonth of twenty-eightdays . U ponthe pl ea of expense, and ow ing to Clarendon

’s fear that incase of war w i th France wecould not hold it, Dunkirk was ordered to be sold, and Backwel l was directed by a royal warrant,dated October 20, 1 662, to repai r to Paris for the purpose of receiving l ivres fromh isM ost Christ ianM ajesty, the French K ing. H e afterward s w as ordered to have th is sums truck intocoins by themi l l and press, wh ich , as we have already state d, he found so deadly inconvenient forte llii ig.

Backwell also brought outseveral large loans for the K ing. I have seenPrivy Seal s d irect ing theCommiss ioners of the T reasury to pay h im,

various'

la1 ge sums for interes t on th e money he hadadvanced. Th e rate he received was 6 pe r -cent . , includ ing a gratu ity of two-th i rds for h is seasonablesupply of the money . OnSeptember 1 4, 1 667 , the K ing made hima free gift of j£8000 incons iderationof large advances to the Exchequer. Th e Privy Seal records that this sumwas g

iven, as

he was forced to admi t larger sums of othermen’smoney into the bank

,uponwh ich he had to al low

interest greater thanhe otherw ise would.There i s much interest ingmatter that I could add concerning th is banker, wh ich I amforced t o

Ou January 1 , 1 695, the Bank of England commenced active operat i ons atGrocers’ Hall , inthePoul try and onFebruary 1 1 inthe same year, the follow ing advertisement appeared inthe London

Th e Court of Directors of the Bank of England hereby give notice that they have empoweredtheir cash iers, M r. Thomas Speed, M r. Robert Hedges, and M r. Thomas M adole e s , and one of themand no other, to give notes onbehal f of the Gove rnor and Company of the Bank of England, ei therfor payment ofmoney or bill s, for wh ich they are to be accountable.

N one of the notes issued by themat th is t ime were for a less sumthan twenty pounds . Th e

Bank also commenced to d iscount b ill s of exchange, usually between47} and 6 per cent .

InM ay, 1 695, they advertised inthe Gazette that they woul d advancemoney onpawns.A s early as A ugust 1 5, 1 695, the Bank cal led in their

“ marbled notes,

” some of themhavingbeenforged.

The first Governor was Sir JohnHoublon, who w as Lord M ayor in 1 695, and a Lord of theA dmiral ty. H e was the sonof James Houblon, an eminent Londonmerchant, remarkable for h ispiety and plainness of whomthere i s frequent mention by Pepys in h i s Diary. His survivingrepresentat ive is M r. JohnA rcher Houblon, of Hall ingbu ry, inEssex .

The Bank of England s toppe'

they were at 1 3 and 1 4 per cent . d iscount. M r. H . D. M acleod,wr i t ing to the D ai ly N ew 5 onthe

The bus iness of M essrs .

Fre ame and Gou ld moved their shopbetween the latter dat e and 1 728, when they were located at the s ignof th e Black Spread Eagl e,now No . 56, part of the premises o ccupied by M essrs . Barclay. The bank premises now cons istof the whole block betweenGeorge A l ley and George Y ard , wh ich comprised the o ld s igns, theBlack Horse, now N o. 53 , where Pepys

until 1 770, whenall the houses were numbered, and the quaint o‘ld s igns were removed .

For the following account I amindebted to M r. J. H . Tri tton, of th is firmIn 1 728 Joseph Freame purchased the freehold premises inLombard Street, at the corner of

George Yard , fromone Curri er,c it izenand a scrivener,
