                      Originally a broken tradesman, from the Anglo-Saxon broc, a
                      misfortune; but, in later times, a person who usually transacts the
                      business of negotiating between the merchants and ship-owners respecting
                      cargoes and clearances: he also effects insurances with the
                      underwriters; and while on the one hand he is looked to as to the
                      regularity of the contract, on the other he is expected to make a candid
                      disclosure of all the circumstances which may affect the risk.
