The Bank of Mona had its head office in Douglas and branches in Castletown, Peel and Ramsey. However, it was a subsidiary of the Bank of Glasgow. However well-run the Bank of Mona was, the Bank of Glasgow crashed, and so the Bank of Mona also shut down, on Wednesday 2nd October 1878. Its former Douglas head office today forms the 'Wedding Cake' of the Island's Legislative Buildings.

And in our story in Manx, whilst y Kyaghan and y Roddan Ushtey do their best to sort out the wreck of the gypsy cart, Mnr Toad is infatuated with the vehicle that frightened the horse and caused the damage.
