    shilling note. Mr Marron did not wish to take it but the stranger would take no refusal. Mr Marron could not as long as he lived get rid of this money, he bought things with it but still he would get back ten shillings change even if he bought something with two shillings of the money he would get back two shillings change. If he told the shopkeeper he had too much change he would answer that he could give him no less.
