Excerpt from Sketches of the Late Depression; Its Cause, Effect and Lessons: With a Synoptical Review of Leading Trades During the Past Decade The downfall of several houses of the mushroom type of growth, of weak and uncertain antecedent record, with little claim to consideration in any sense, yet who had managed to work up large turnovers of business through the overweening credit-confidence of the time, was the earliest result of an almost unparalleled inflation. These failures were followed by the stoppage of a few sounder interests, and by the attempted contraction of business in more conservative quarters, until the advent of an extended term of depression became fully patent.
