"Ovington's Bank" by Stanley John Weyman is a novel published in 1922. Set during the British Panic of 1825, the story follows two English communities as a banking crisis threatens to destroy their way of life. Weyman explores the clash between traditional landed gentry and the rising business class, as customers' panic endangers a carefully run bank. This tale of honesty, love, and social transformation depicts how fear and self-interest can drive even solvent institutions toward ruin during financial turmoil.
