Comment: I'm here in Michigan at the center of the Wild Cat Banking fraud

Many banks at that time were famous for creating banknotes without specie available for redemption. Buildings were erected in the wilderness of the next county north. To return their banknotes was a two week journey, if you could find the Bank, so-called.

It is not my purpose to peddle ideas, but to lay them on the table. May the best ideas win or be found wanting as the case may be.

Thanks for the link, Joe. I will review it.
