Its Presidents Were Max- welt Chambers and William. Murphy, its teller, from '4G until discontinuance of business, was J. M. Horah, uncle of O. D. Davis ana a son of W . H. Horah, About the year 1854 or 1855 th Bank of North Carolina established a branch here in the building novy occu pied as offices by the AV. Jtf. C. It. K Co., M. W . Jarvis was its cashier. The same causes that wound up the affairs of the liank: of Cape rear operated in the case of the Ban fc of North piiroli na, and it' '"died the death1' after the surrender. Salisbury was then without : bank ing facilities until Mr.: D. A. Davis opened a private banking house, which he conducted most successfully until his death in December; 1881. lie wad a veteran banker in fact, banking had; been the occupation of his life. At one time he had been an olncer in the Branch Bank of the United States at Fayetteville, and he also opened a Bank at Cheraw, S. C. Upon his death his son, Mr. 0. D. Davis, formed partner- l 'iii TT i-ir-i -l snip witn . ii. vviiey, ana no inter ruption to the business occurred: it might have been written of tbe Bank D. Davis was born in the bank build ing, and since the fall of 1874 he has been identified with the business, and at intervals for years bef jre that time he had assisted his father. The every day management oi affairs now largely rans upon mm, ana Dusy iis it keens him, he finds time to devote toother fiduciary trusts he is treasurer of the town of Salisbury, treasurer of the Presbyterian church, Treasurer of the Gas Company, Notary Public, &c. But by taste, habit and education, he is a banker. Hb partner, S. H. Wiley, who is a native ot liuilford county, has led an active life. He studied law, and was admitted to the bar, but we believe he never practiced the profession. For some years he was principal of a school in Beaufort county, and he ha3 also iwiiuwcu civil , eiiyiiieeriu'. rur Hie All .1 . seven years roiiowing tne war he was Collector of Internal Itevenue for this District and then resigned and declin ed re-appointment, l or a great manv iyears he ha3 been identified with rail way interests, and is now a Director in the ; W. N. C. R. R. Co. He is also Chairman of . the Finance . Committee o.f the North Carolina railroad, and he also. ha3 been and i3 concerned in iron niiniirg' in" Chatham, Moore and other Counties. He continues: to feel a deer interest in the cause oJ education, and! ja a I rusteeT Member of the Executive Committee and Treasurer of Davidson College; he isalsd one of the Town Cojn niissioners, and, altogether; cannot well complain of having nothing to do. '( Mlessrs. Davis & Wiley became heirs to a well established banking business, hnd'tlns they have sought,; by all hon orable methods, to still enlarge. Es pecially has their business grown up in the western portion of ,theState. "They do a 1 considerable business at States ville and , intervening' points between there and Marion. Several, of, the business . men of Newton. Lenoir and other towns! are depositors ! with them, and it may also be said that the Bank Jiolds a gratifying business, at Lexing ton,' and other places. ' The correspondence of the Bank em braces Richmond, (Raleigh, Charlotte, Baltimore, New York and other points, and tKe entire business is steadily grow ing in fact,. '85. will show a general advance of 2d to 25 per cent, in the business over that of 1883. All classes of people :are customers. "The State of North ? Carolina has, designated the Banking House of Davis & Wiley as a depository, and it. holds more or less State funds at all times; The AV. N. C. railway does its banking with Divis & iWiley; .o do some of the county offi ipers, and so do merchants, manufactur ers. . cotton, tobacco and other buyers, formers," and ' others.

BANK.1 ' ;i piiiform and eonstaht. them, and so Salisbury out a ! chartered Bank: centlji Among others: interest in the matter iaskilL an enterprisinr , marchaiifc In H ovember 1882, jMr. Gaskill asked Maj: B. AV. Coler. toassist bim in the organization of such Ian enterprise; Maj Cole" was a man of meanshe was moire or less familiar with banking "by retvson of his long experience as DireC- tor in an old ana staunch bank at his former home, Wadesboro, and thoiih tit first he felt unable to take any active part in such a scneme as was proposed, ne finally entered into it with heart. soul and purse. iThe original idea with the promulgators . pf the,' Bank j "was a fcfcate institution, and so a charter was seenred from the Legislature. . While this wf.u pending' or soon after it was secured it was aiscertained that - a Ra tional Bank Charter could be obtained, and this was dune without loss of. time. though, in the meantime, organization was effected . under the State charter for the Bank of Salisbury. As soon as the JNational charter was secured, and be tore business was begun, the Bank sprung into being under its present designation, with a paid in capital of $30,000. There were some 31 or 32 stockholders we forget which the greatest holding' by any onei person . .: . 1 A . . 1 . r . 1 1 r ' oemg 14 snares, owned by tne rresi dent, and smallest holding was but pne share. If we remember rightlythere has been but pne or two transfers of stock. This stock, whose par value was S100, is now worth considerably .more, and so it should be when it is borne in mind that its first year's busi ness was sufficiently profitable to ena ble the bank to declare a dividend of eijmt per cent, and at the same time advance 8800 lor thereabouts to a sur plus fund. Referring to the share holders again we make note of the fact that all save three or .; four arc business men of -Salisbury, and it is home capi tal and honi3 necessities and home en terprises that arecarrying it forward. Ihe Bank Directory is notable in this:' that it is made up of some of the best business men of this section men who are prudent, conservative, busi ness and professional men, such men as' S. W. Cole, L. Blackmer, M. L. Holmes, R. J. Holmes, G. A. Bingham, Kerr Craige," D. A. Atwell, J. D. Gas kill and I. Frank Patterson the latter 1 . it -a a resident, iarmer and merchant at China Grove all the others live here. The first four named ( and. letween them they own of the stock) com prise the. Jiixecutive, Committee, and those who know them know that, they are men who' will "prove faithful stew ards. . The notes of the bank for circula tion were received in due time, and on the nth of August, 1S83, the President and Cashier began placing their auto graphs thereon a task to be sure, but a pleasurable one, for each stroke of the pen added to the circulating me dium of the country and -converted pretty paper into prettier money. When fairly open for business the Bank was visited bv its first depositor, Mr. J. H. Welborn, of Ijexington, who deposited 1500 the second depositor was J. D. Gaskill, with 538 to his credit, and since then almost countless numbers ave found their way to the counters of the First National Bank of Salis bury to deposit large or small amounts. Ihe President elected bv the board was Mai. Cole. He is a man past mid dle age-a native of Richmond county. For years before the war he was a planter at Wadesboro, Anson Co., and ilso near Little Rock Arkansas. While engaged in planting at his old home he became identified with mercantile pur suits, also, and he was one of the origi nators of the o'd and well known Bank of Wadesboro. as well as a Director in it from its beginning. Mai. Cole came o Salisbury 14 years ago." Now that the National Bank is organized he de votes his whole time to it.- The Cashier is Mr. 1. II. Foust. Mr. Foust is , originally from Randolph county. He came to Salisbury in the fall of 1802 and was educated here. Returning here in -1SC8, he followed the profession of bookkeeper for six years, and then went to Charlotte, 1 where fox. nine- yemiijv he was bookkeep er, first for seven years with the largest ;wholesale hardware establishment in the State--Brem," Brown & Co., (now Brown, Weddington & Co.,) and for two years with Oates Bros., a well- m. s. ebowbtI ?

He was Unanimously chosen as Cashier by the Board, and the relations between each has since been most pleasant and satis factory. That he discharges his va pous duties with fidel'ty to the best interests of the Bank there can be no gainsaying. ; V The business of tire First National Bank of Salisbury has been of the mostrgratifyiug charactor. Its deposit account hajs, increased from quarter to quarter, and the area .of country in which it does business has, been mate rially enlarged. It is building up an specially -good businees to the West, and collections in that district are- very carefully looked after.' ! In conclusion we may say this: Everything points toward continued success for the Bank. "It holds the confidence, of the people. Its officers, We like the way in which Mr. Brown keeps his goods. The large stockof clothing carried does not have a; mess-ed-up apjtearance, as if pawed over by generations of people jevery thing is neat and tidy as well as desirable, and to this .we may add the ' statement that prices are considerably lower now than One year ago. At the same time there is a growing demand for the' better grades of goods. Speaking of prices reminos us inai suits are earned rang ing all the way from 83 to $35the former are right good, too, and if a pur chaser finds any wool in them his mon ey will be refunded. Tlie medium priced goods are especially devisable and in fiict, the entire clothing depart ment is first class in every respect. The boot and shoe and .other depart ments are equally complete. Mr. Brown has carefully studied the needs of this market, and he uses every honorable means toward meeting it. In brief, in all that goes to make a representa tive house, nothing is lacking. Mr. Brown is a son of the late J. D. Brown, for a great manyfyears a promi nent merchant of -Salisbury He is a young man, and began his mercantile experiences nine years ago" with J. M. Knox & Co., afterwards lie was with Mock & Brown. , Then he went to Concord, when he was with Cannons & Fetzer for two and a half years: then he returned here and on. the first of March, 1881, he established his present business. That he hsfs met with suc cess is apparent to all, and we are glad of it. In the store Mr. Brown is sissis- ted by F. F. Smith, Eddie Wilson and IV B.
