“Nor did he trouble⟳ his borrowers with abstract calculations of figures, or references to ready-reckoners; his simple rule⟳ of interest⟳ being all comprised in the one golden sentence, ‘two-pence for every half-penny,’ which greatly simplified the accounts, and which, as a familiar precept, more easily acquired and retained in the memory than any known rule⟳ of arithmetic, cannot be too strongly recommended to the notice⟳ of capitalists, both large and small, and more especially of money-brokers and bill-discounters.”
