Notes: The Council of Foreign Bondholders was formed in 1868 to protect the interests of British holders of foreign bonds.  In the early '70's the Council's officers began systematically to collect & retain printed material, primarily newspaper cuttings to supply basic information to Council negotiators and to give background material for are reports printed in the Annual Report of the Council.  The cuttings are in English taken from British daily newspapers, the weeklies and the financial press.  This is supplemented by material from United States newspapers and other local English language newspapers.  Few newspapers of the period were indexed so the labour of extracting material was formidable.
