John Forrester, aged 50, 1844. Creator: Unknown
John Forrester, aged 50, 1844....the banking-house of Messrs. Rogers, Olding, and Co. No. 29, on the east side of Clement s-lane [in the City of London], had been the scene of a robbery. A clerk, named Burgess, and his accomplice Elder, stole £ 8, 000. Burgess fled to America, but two of the banks officers, John and Daniel Forrester, were instrumental in Burgesss arrest. " The utmost credit is due to Forrester for his untiring perseverance, his devotedness, and his efficiency. Sleepless in his efforts, and straightforward in his demeanour, he secured friends wherever he went, who were ready and anxious to stand by him, and also at once enlisted their goodwill in his behalf. No one could have discharged the responsible duties committed to him with more integrity, zeal, or success". From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol V
