When Europeans first came to America cocoa-nuts were used for money in many parts of the country, and the skins of wild animals in others. About 1635 wampum was a legal tender among the colonists of Massachusetts and counterfeiters gave them much trouble. Musket balls were also a legal tender among them for sums under one shilling. For many years the early settlers of Maryland and Virginia used tobacco as money, and later it was made legal money. The fees and salaries of government officers wer...e paid in it, and the public taxes were collected in the same article. Certain fees of court officers in the District of Columbia are computed in tobacco money to this day. Chavelier tells us that hand-made nails were used for money as late as 1866 in some of the more secluded villages of France. " In the British West India Islands, " writes Mr. Madden, "pins, a slice of bread, a pinch of snuff, a dram of whiskey, and in the central part of South America soap, chocolate, cocoa-nuts, eggs, " etc.
