Excerpt from Curiosities of Glasgow Citizenship: As Exhibited Chiefly in the Business Career of Its Old Commercial Aristocracy Some time ago the Directors of the Chamber of Commerce suggested the preparation of a few notes descriptive of the circum stances that gave rise to the Chamber, and of the transactions which, at its formation, formed the chief subject of deliberation and discussion at its meetings.
