Joint Select Comm. Report on suspension of specie payments, 1841
|
|
January 6, 1841 report of the Joint Select Committee on the suspension of specie payments by the banks in the state. Of note, the Panic of 1837
resulted in a recession; and as noted in the report, northern banks began to suspend specie payments, meaning that they would no longer redeem commercial
paper in specie at full face value. This report reviewed and investigated the situation regarding the State Bank and the Bank of Cape Fear. An
appendix of various financial statements and correspondence was attached to the report. (Digitized from a microfilm copy of titles originally held by
the University of North Carolina Library at Chapel Hill).
