Book excerpt: Excerpt from Money and Transportation in Maryland, 1720-1765 Of trade was overwhelmingly against the colonies, and in the ordinary course Of commerce no money importation whatever could be expected from England. Outside of trade there were three channels by which a certain amount Of coin reached Maryland from the mother - country. The first and most important Of these was through settlers. It is natural to suppose that most emigrants, on leaving Eng land, would provide themselves with more or less pocket money to meet immediate demands. The amount Of such a supply is very difficult to estimate, but with four or five thousand settlers a year, it was probably an appreciable addition to the monetary resources Of the colony.
