                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.
