D/HH 2/1/903-960Local CompaniesFifth Deposit (Acc: 1602(D)) The companies represented here are ones in which the Hanby Holmes family appears to have had an interest. All papers relating to local companies have been kept but only select papers from the other companies. The spread of investments from home rails to South African gold mines is not untypical of the period. Naturally enough those companies in financial difficulties spawn more papers, circulars and schemes than do the others. Holdings of British Dominion and Colonial government securities, local loans and,possibly, foreign government stocks are also likely. Such organisations do not, of course, produce annual reports and the like, merely interest warrants and are, therefore, unrepresented here. For the Bagnall engineering enterprises see D/HH 10/1/1-861 below. For prospectuses and E.R. Hanby Holmes’ activities as a sub-underwriter see D/HH 1/8/1- above.
