Transcriber’s Notes

The eponymous street of the title appears in three guises: “wall-street” (once), “Wall Street” (twice) and most commonly “Wall-street”.

“Mr. Jacob Broker opened an office near the wall-street”, describing the street built on land where the old city wall was knocked down. His descendant brokers, the author writes, have “since congregated in the region round about Wall Street”, the name which is also used in the book’s title. In all other places in the text it appears as “Wall-street”.
