Money Found is a book written by Thomas Edie Hill in 1893 that explores the concept of hidden money and its impact on the economy. The author argues that there is a significant amount of money that is hidden away in various hiding places, such as mattresses, safes, and buried in the ground. This money is not being put into circulation, which is causing a shortage of money in the economy.Hill suggests that the government should take steps to encourage people to put their hidden money into circulation by instilling confidence in government banks. He argues that if people believe that their money is safe in the banks, they will be more likely to deposit it and put it into circulation.The book provides examples of how hidden money has been recovered in the past and put into circulation, such as during the Civil War when people were encouraged to turn in their gold to help finance the war effort. Hill also discusses the potential benefits of putting hidden money into circulation, such as stimulating the economy and reducing the need for borrowing.Overall, Money Found is a thought-provoking book that explores the concept of hidden money and its impact on the economy. Hill's arguments for putting hidden money into circulation through confidence in government banks are still relevant today and provide valuable insights into the workings of the economy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
