Image description

On the back of this photograph John James Frowde writes, "Holmes Bros Bank with the lid off. The South Quay brings to mind Holmes's (Henry, John and James), bankers and herring curers. Poor old Jemmy, a man who never did a good turn in his life out of all his abundance, and whose wealth was supposed to be so enormous that Southside farmers preferred his notes to English sovereigns. One of our Deemsters wrote of him thus in 1850:- 'Called to see Mr Holmes and sat with him some time. Poor man. His appearance is quite shocking; his clothes are all worn and dirty, and his hands are as black with dirt as a chimney sweep's, and his whole person is equally so; and he is so blind he only knows me by by my voice.'"
