...them it was the tunic which Christ wore on His way to Calvary and His Crucifixion; sweat had stained the fabric and on one shoulder were blood spots where the cross had rested.

...principal & interest. Bond issues and old bank loans were coming due and the New York and London capital markets were closed to orthodox financing.
