Scope and content

Leeds. - Milnes has acted prudently in not attempting to turn to the 'benevolent money lenders in London' for the £500, as they would probably have charged him a 'most heavy percentage for the accommodation' since he has no personal property of his own at present. Has mentioned the situation to his bankers, Messrs Brown [?] & Co, who have more than once advanced money to Milnes' father; they will lend Milnes the £500 to be paid back after a year, with interest at 5 per cent, but require him to insure his life at that sum for the year.
