Keeping Busine Accounts Business records of some form or other were probably employed in the earliest times in the history of trade and credit. Practically nothing is known, however, of the earliest form of bookkeeping. From the works of Leonardo of Pisa it appears certain that the merchants of Italy, France, and Spain practiced systematic bookkeeping for some time prior to the Thirteenth century. We owe the present system of bookkeeping, however, to the Italian traders of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth centuries, particuJarly the merchants of In Genoa, Florence and Venice.

Explaining Origin cf American Dollar Sign In 1'Anlmateur des Temps Charles Prince explains for French readers the origin of the American dollar sign, lie relates that Spain, in the Fifteenth century, when practically all the world's gold was carried to the Iberian peninsula from the mines of South America, designed a coin of eight reals' value which bore on one of its faces a representation of two columns (the columns of Hercules) Intertwined by a riband in the form of a letter S bearing the inscription, "I'Jus Ultra." Englishmen called these coins "pillar dollars," taking the word dollar from the German coin known as a "thaler." When the United States congress in 1TS7 decided to strike a coin known as a dollar, with the same value as the Spanish "pillar dollar," accountants naturally used as the sign for this new coin the old device of pillars intertwined with a garland which is so well known today in the form of an S with a double bar.
