40 PER CENT INTEREST
DUE EACH YEAR ON
- NOTE, 4,000 YjJARS OLD
PHILADELPHIA, Sept., 14— An
unpaid note for four shekles in silver
bearing forty per cent annual interest
for nearly four thousand years recent
ly was found among the clay tablets
at the university of Pennsylvania mu
seum by Dr. Leon Legrain. The note
was given by a man named Bur-Mama
to II Sinnutum in October, 1962, B. C.,
■ * /
the “year in which King Sim-Sin oc
cupied the town of Dur-Damigilisha.”
There, were four ♦witness to . the
note. Instead of signatures the wit
nesses placed their seals on the docu
ment and were not liable for payment
unless it was shown they knew the
character of Bur-Mama was bad when
they swore it was good.
( Although comparisons are difficult,
Dr.'Legrain said, a shekel of silver
at the tiiAe the note was made was
equal to about. $100 at the present
