THE CONNECTICUT RIVER BANKING COMPANY
ALITY er HARTFORD
WATER FRONT, HARTFORD, From Seymour's H'harf, 1821
Published by D. St. John, and N. Goodwin Engraved by A. Willard
Collection of M. B. Brainard
OLLOWING a public meeting held in the City Hotel of Hartford on January I, 1824, a group of the city's most prom- inent and influential citizens proceeded to organize a corporation under the name of the Con- necticut River Company "to build by the most im- proved methods a serviceable canal with locks at Enfield, thus surmounting the difficulties of the river at that point, with the fall of thirty feet; secure by purchase all the improvements on the
the Northern country, by providing a practical and adequate system of transportation by means of short canals and a moderate number of locks, for the full length of the Connecticut river;" and this not de- pendent upon sails or horse power but superseding both by the great new and powerful agent STEAM. The charter was received from the General Assem- bly in May, 1824.
The story of this great Hartford institution is taken from the book entitled The Connecticut River Banking Company, 1825-1925, written by Henry W. Erving and published by the bank on the occasion of its one hundredth anniversary.
The first meeting of the Connecticut River Com- pany was held in the Tavern, or Coffee House, of Joseph Morgan, which was located on the north side of State Street, between Market and Front Streets. The company immediately proceeded to formulate extensive plans for making the river navi- gable from Hartford to South Hadley, and also took initial steps towards acquiring all the works on the river above.
As the importance and magnitude of the great upper river, and thus control the entire business of enterprise became manifest it was evident that a very large amount of capital would be required. Hence it came about that in the year following the incorporation of the Connecticut River Company, its directors met again in Morgan's Coffee House, for the purpose of organizing the Connecticut River Banking Company, which should, as its financial agent, assist in carrying out this great design, which was estimated to cost not less than $ 1,500,000.
The memorial to the General Assembly was favor- ably received and granted without demur the bank

receiving its charter in 1825. Alfred Smith was elected its first president, being thus the president of both corporations. Later the bank subscribed sixty thousand dollars to the stock of the Connecticut River Company. During the four years 1825 to 1829 the interests of the bank and the river com- panies were to a great extent mutual. There ultimate aims were however diverse and the first boards of directors were, save in a few instances, composed of different individuals.
The first steamboat that ever appeared on the river above Hartford was the Barnet. (See Page ? ? ). She was built in New York on the orders of the Connecticut River Company and launched on Octo- ber 2, 1826. Her maiden voyage attracted wide attention. She was commanded on her trip up the river as far as Northampton, by Captain Palmer, and beyond that point Captain Strong, one of the
most capable river men of the day was at the wheel. Under his expert handling she safely arrived at Bellows Falls where a banquet was held in celebra- tion of the achievement.
Other steamers were built during the succeeding years of which the Oliver Ellsworth and the Massa- chusetts are notably well remembered for the many stories and historic incidents that gathered about them. The coming of the railroads which no one could have anticipated, the first of which in Con- necticut was the Boston, Norwich and New London chartered in 1832, made both the passenger and the freight business increasingly unprofitable so that steamboat communication after a time ceased alto- gether.
While the great project for which the Connecticut River Company was organized and to assist in which the Connecticut River Banking Company was formed, had not demonstrated the large earning power antici- pated, it had vastly improved navigation facilities, and had proved of great advantage to traffic and commerce. Thus it had fulfilled the purposes and expectations of its founders.
For four years, or until 1829 the headquarters of the bank continued to be at Morgan's Coffee House. In 1829 the Exchange Coffee House was sold by Joseph Morgan to Selah Treat, and the same year Henry I. Ellsworth erected the imposing block of buildings, on State House Square, at the corner of Central Row and Prospect Streets.
On the completion of the Ellsworth Block the bank leased the eastern section, purchasing it soon after, and moved its quarters from Morgan's Coffee House to offices on the first floor of this new building. There is no evidence that this building was built primarily for the bank, but it is apparent that the portion which it later owned and occupied was con- structed especially to meet its requirements. Previ- ously this corner lot was occupied by a large gambrel- roofed house, the residence of Dr. Roderic Morrison, erected by him in 1750. In this house he had his

office and maintained a drug store, and afterwards, in 1767, it became the home of Thomas Green, the founder of The Connecticut Courant.
The bank remained at No. 16 Central Row for forty-one years, removing in 1870 to the well- equipped offices in the new building of the Charter Oak Life Insurance Company, on the corner of Main and Atheneum Streets. This dignified edifice constructed of granite, and containing the first ele- vator seen in Hartford, was the show building of the city, which out of town friends were called upon to admire, and from the roof of which an extensive view was obtained. The building occupied a large plot north of the Atheneum, a considerable portion of which was at one time owned by Daniel Wads- worth.
In 1887 the bank again changed its location to offices on the first floor of the building at the corner of Main and Pearl Streets. This although one of the oldest business blocks of the city, built about
1847, was an excellent situation, and the move proved to be advantageous. The corner, styled "Lord's Corner" or the "Olmsted Corner", was part of the one time property of John Haynes, the title going back to 1639. These banking rooms were re- tained for twenty-six years.
Today the bank occupies commodious quarters in The Travelers Building where it has remained since 1913. This stately structure stands on historic ground. Here was located Zachary Sanford's Tavern, where on the afternoon of October 31, 1687, the Governor and the Council of the Colony of Con- necticut met Sir Edmund Andros who demanded that the prized charter of the colony be surrendered to him.
On January 27, 1922, L. Marsden Hubbard was elected President of The Connecticut River Banking Company, also of its affiliated institution, The Traveler's Bank and Trust Company, whose offices are also located in the Traveler's Building.

HE State Savings Bank was organized in 1858 to provide a bank in which people of moderate income could save small sums of money and in return receive the benefits enjoyed by investors of large sums.
Such a plan required first of all that the depositors must receive every protection for their savings; sec- ond, the savings must receive a fair rate of income compounded semi-annually; and, third, the depos- itor must be able to deposit such sums as he could save from time to time and to withdraw from his account such sums as he required without affecting the income on the balance of his account.

In order to meet these requirements, the State Savings Bank was organized as a Mutual Savings Bank. A mutual savings bank has no stockholders. It is owned by its depositors and the profits are paid to the depositors after paying the expenses of run- ning the business and making adequate additions to the Surplus or Protective Funds to safeguard the de- positors against loss.
For more than seventy-five years this Mutual Savings Bank has served the people of Hartford and vicinity. It provides a service which fills a real need just as it did in 1858 when the bank was organized.

The Present Home of the State Savings Bank, at 39 Pearl Street
N 1922, the State Savings Bank erected its present building at 39 Pearl Street. It was on this same site that the Hartford Life Insurance Company in 1853 or 1854 built the brownstone building which was torn down in 1921 to make way for the new bank building. Be- fore 1853, a frame building stood on this site, which was used as the Town Clerk's office.
Soon after its organization in 1858, the State Sav- ings Bank rented quarters in the old brownstone building and in 1869 purchased it from the Hartford Fire Insurance Company, which in turn had pur- chased it from the Hartford Life Insurance Com- pany in 1858.
Except for a period from 1914 to 1922, the bank has been located at 39 Pearl Street.

HE Mechanics Savings Bank was chartered by the Leg- islature at its May session in 1861, the bill being signed by Governor William A. Buck- ingham, the War Governor of Con- necticut, in the Presidency of Abra- ham Lincoln. The bank received its first deposit on the second day of January, 1862, and there were twen- ty-one accounts opened during its first month of business, all from Hartford and vicnity.
During its long and honorable his- tory the bank has had seven presi- dents, namely:
James P. Foster, 1861-66
George W. Moore, 1866-89
Daniel Phillips, 1889-97
Henry C. Dwight, 1897-18
John M. Holcombe, 1918-26 Arthur M. Collens, 1926-34 Wickliffe S. Buckley, 1934-
There have been but three treasur- ers, namely :
Haynes I. Porter, 1861-1873 Ward W. Jacobs, 1873-1920
Wickliffe S. Buckley, 1920-
Under the direction of this honor- able and distinguished personnel the growth of the bank has been steady and continuous and the number of its depositors now exceeds thirty-seven thousand.

had its first temporary quar- ters at No. 6 Central Row, in the office of what was then the Adams Express Company; later, in 1866, its business had increased to such an extent as to justify an office of its own, which was also located at No. 13 Central Row. For some sixty years the bank continued to occupy rented quarters in the heart of Hartford's finan- cial and business district.
In 1923 the directors of the bank de- termined to purchase a site and erect a permanent home. The site selected was at 80 Pearl Street, on property originally allotted to Edward Hopkins, who was six times elected governor of Connecticut, serving in that office for a total of seven years. On this site the erection of a strong and beautiful building was begun at once. This building, shown on opposite page, was opened to the public on February 24, 1925.

THE OLDEST TRUST
COMPANY IN CONNECTICUT
CHARLES M. POND
EDWARD B. WATKINSON
HE decades following the Civil War saw Americans recognizing the need for a type of banking institution with trustee powers to hold and administer property for de- pendent individuals, for estates, for governmental bodies, for institutions, and the like. This was the period of widespread organization of trust companies. Among the very first to visualize the need for this service were fifteen Hartford citizens who organized in 1866, and in 1867 received a charter for the first bank of this character in the state-the Hartford Trust Company.
This bank was headed during its first years by a prominent Hartford resident, Charles M. Pond, who served as president from 1868 to 1880. Mr. Pond was Connecticut's state treasurer from 1874 to 1878, and he is remembered today as the donor to Hartford of its beautiful Elizabeth Park.
Several years after the first institution was founded, the Connecticut Trust & Safe Deposit Company was organized in 1871, and Edward B. Watkinson served as president during its formative period. For many years this bank acted as agent for the sinking fund of the city of Hartford. In 1919 this bank and the Hartford Trust Company were merged as the Hart- ford-Connecticut Trust Company. At that time Meigs H. Whaples was serving as chairman of the
board and Frank C. Sumner as president. Plans were made for a new building to house the enlarged institution, and in 1922 the present building was completed.

SERVES THE STATE THROUGH £ FIVE BRANCHES
:i. ford-Connecticu: Tr ..: Company announced . the operation of branch banks in five neighboring Connecticut communities. These branches were formerly old and established banks in their respective localities, and control of them had been acquired to provide the central portion of the state with a strong system of branch banks. The establishment of branch banking was in this instance so con- ducted that cach branch retained its own local management.
The affiliation of the branches with the parent institution has proved mutually ben- eficial. The outlying branches have profited from the advice and experience of the officers at the main office, while the local knowledge of the men on the several branch boards-all men of prominence in their community -- has given the Hartford-Connecticut Trust Company very valuable insight into banking problems and operations in the smaller communities.
MERIDEN BRANCH
This country was in the throes of the Civil War, when on February 25, 1863, the First National Bank was organ- ized in Meriden. Since that day this bank has enjoyed a consistent growth. Since 1872 this bank has conducted its business in a building that also houses the City Savings Bank and the Meriden Trust and Safe Deposit Company. This branch, however, has always confined its activities to com- mercial banking.
MIDDLETOWN BRANCH
During the same period, on March 7, 1864, the First National Bank of Middletown was organized. It conduct- ed commercial, savings and safe deposit departments, and on May 28, 1929, secured the privilege of offering trust services. Quite unusually, this bank was headed by three generations of one family. Seth H. Butler served as presi- dent from 1894 to 1916, Earle C. Butler from 1916 to 1929, and E. Dudley Butler from that date until this bank became a branch.
ROCKVILLE BRANCH
First founded of the banks that entered the Hartford- Connecticut Trust Company branch banking system was the Rockville Bank, established June 25, 1855. Nine years later it became a national bank and changed its name to the Rockville National Bank. About this time, on January 4, 1864, there was organized another bank, the First Na- tional Bank of Rockville, destined sixty-six years later to be merged with the Rockville National. Three years later the combined institutions became the Rockville Branch of the Hartford-Connecticut Trust Company.
MALE
Wethersfield Branch in Historic Village Hotel
WETHERSFIELD BRANCH
The need for banking facilities in the thriving Hartford suburb of Wethersfield prompted the establishment of the Wethersfield Bank & Trust Company in 1929. Though today largely a suburban community, Wethersfield has in its own right played a prominent role in the state since the. founding of Connecticut, and the very building that houses the branch bank is a historic landmark. Built in 1790 as the commodious home of Henry A. Deming, a village mer- chant, it is a fine example of the Colonial version of Georgian architecture. Some time later, when travellers still either took to saddle or journeyed in stage coaches, this roomy house was converted into an inn. In 1840 it was sold to Roswell Camp, who operated it under the name of the "Wethersfield Village Hotel". Just north of this struc- ture, and on the same property, was a smaller building that for forty-four years housed the town post office. In recent years the town of Wethersfield purchased the property be- cause of its historic interest and leased the present quarters to the Wethersfield Branch.
STAFFORD SPRINGS BRANCH
An outgrowth of the older Stafford National Bank, the First National Bank of Stafford Springs started business June 20, 1888. It offers a complete commercial banking service and operates a safe deposit department. The chair- man of its Advisory Board is Freeman F. Patten, who served two terms as Connecticut State Treasurer, and who held the office of president of this bank until it became a branch. Mr. F. G. Sanford, formerly Cashier of the First National Bank of Stafford Springs, and now the officer in charge of this branch, has been actively identified with banking in Stafford Springs since 1879.
