Excerpt from An Example of Communal Currency: The Facts About the Guernsey Market House, Compiled From Original Documents
In the following pages it is the writer's desire to place the facts before the public as he has gleaned them from the official records of the States and the newspapers of the time. He feels tempted to discuss the pros and cons of the system adopted by the States of Guernsey for over twenty years but this little treatise will probably. Be of most use if it is confined to a mere narra tion of facts. Incidentally, however, it will be seen that some of the queries which led to the research have been answered. From the nature of the case this narration will consist largely of quotations. It must inevitably fail to convey to the reader the thrilling interest aroused as the story, exceeding all the romance of the enthu siasts, led its slow but fascinating course through many volumes, and the quaint old French docu ments gave up their secrets in the modern well equipped Record Office.
