Recalls OI Canadian Bank History By FOIIBEB RIIUDE Candles Press Business Editor Some "books on banking" and some currency were two oi the simple needs of the Bank of Nova Scotla when it was established in Halifax in 1882. The hank-now one of Canada's great financial institutions-this year is celebrating its 125th anni- versary and. to mark the occa- sion, is recalling its early history.
