Protest filed on behalf of Palmer, Cook, and Co., bankers, 1854.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/78678763

This document is the official protest made by W. C. Parker, at the request of the bankers Palmer, Cook, and Co., against C. Morris. Morris had defaulted on a loan of $4,000 owed to David Colbreth Broderick, a gold smelter and assayer (who later became a senator). Parker noted in the protest that Morris claimed that he did not have the money to repay the loan. The loan agreement on the verso, copied in W. C. Parker's hand, sets out the terms of the loan and records some payments on the interest. Morris and Broderick both signed the original.
