Money Secreted Odd Corners Wrapped Rag Curl Paper Hoards

Back As to her money, she first secreted it in odd corners, wrapped in a rag or an old curl-paper; but some of these hoards having been discovered by the housemaid, Eliza, fearful of one day losing her valued treasure, consented to intrust it to her mother, at a usurious rate of interest--fifty or sixty per cent.; which interest she exacted every quarter, keeping her accounts in a little book with anxious accuracy.
Front De minthogy a szobaleány felfedezte a rejtekhelyeket, Eliza inkább rászánta magát, hogy féltett kincsét anyjára bízza. Uzsorakamatra, ötven-hatvan százalékra kölcsönadta anyjának a pénzt, a kamatokat negyedévenként bevasalta, és az elszámolást gondosan vezette egy zsebkönyvben.
