"London, December 24, 1847—The British financial system was teetering on the edge of collapse when Ebenezer Scrooge and officials from the Bank of England huddled in the Bonnie Prince Charlie room of the "The Old Lady of Threadneedle Street" for a briefing that, in the words of one participant, “scared the hell out of everybody.”

Interesting read.
