a. A meeting-place of merchants for transaction of business; an Exchange. Obsolete. (See bourse n.)[According to Guicciardini and Catel (quoted in Chambers Cycl. Supp. 1753), the name arose at Bruges, from the sign of a purse, or three purses, on the front of the house which the merchants there bought to meet in: some say this was the arms of the former owners, the family Bursa or de la Bourse. Others assign the circumstance to Antwerp. See Chambers Cycl. Supp. 1753, Littré ( Supp., and Additions), Notes & Queries 1st Ser. I. 74, etc. All the accounts agree as to the sign of a purse or purses.]
