The excellent banking facilities with which Marlborough is equipped are superior. Judiciously managed and in financial stability and integrity the Banks of Marlborough take first rank. The popularity and steady growth is due to its condition and to the character of those most promi- nently identified with the management.


FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF MARLBOROUGH.


The history of the First National Bank of Marlborough dates back to 1863 when Mr. Mark Fay, a gentleman who had long had the best interests of Marlborough at heart, called about him some of the leading citizens and a charter was applied for. This was granted August 30, 1863, to run for nineteen years.


396


Mr. Mark Fay was elected its first President and Mr. E. C. Whitney from the Lancaster National Bank, Cashier.


The first Directors were : Mark Fay, William Gibbon, Samuel Boyd, Joseph Boyd, Sidney G. Fay, William Morse 2d, John M. Whiton, Erastus S. Woods, George E. Woods.


The office of the Bank was first in Corey block. In May 1867, Mark Fay offered to the National Bank and Savings Bank to build a brick bank building costing $5,000 and give the use of it free of cost so long as both or either should occupy it. The offer was accepted, the building erected and the Bank took possession of it at the beginning of the new year 1868. June 30, 1876, Mark Fay died aged 83, and William Gibbon was elected President.


The capital stock of the Bank was fixed at $50,000.00. This was increased January 1, 1864, to $100,000.00 and still later to $200,000.00.


Under the skilful management of the directors, the surplus in 1882, at the expiration of the charter, amounted to $100,000.00, and Congress, having delayed action looking to any renewal of the same, the old bank was wound up and a new bank organized on September 1, 1882, with $300,000.00 capital, and no surplus, with Samuel Boyd as President, and F. L. Claflin, formerly in the Newton National Bank, as Cashier.


At a later date, the United States having paid off its bonds extended at three per cent., of which the bank held a large amount, it was voted to reduce the capital to $150,000.00. This was accordingly done and the statement published September 1, 1909, shows this amount as capital, the officers being: Walter B. Morse, President ; Charles W. Curtis, Vice-President ; F. L. Claflin, Cashier ; W. I. Morse, Assistant Cashier.


Directors : Charles W. Curtis, Louis P. Howe, Charles F. Robin- son, Joseph F. Cosgrove, Walter B. Morse, William A. Allen, Edward H. Ellis, William H. Downey, J. J. Shaughnessy, Camillus T. Warner.

THE 250th ANNIVERSARY.


The celebration of the 250th anniversary of Marlborough had been under consideration for several years in an unofficial way previous to 1910, although no definite action was taken until January of that year. During 1906, the matter was discussed by the Board of Mayor and Alder- men, and an order was introduced providing for an appropriation yearly until 1910, so that a sufficient sum could be accumulated to defray the expenses of a celebration worthy of the occasion. After thoroughly considering the matter and expressing opinions in favor of properly observing the event in a public manner, it was deemed advisable not to appropriate that year.


Our heaviest taxpayers and the public generally expected that when the time was ripe, action would be taken, and in this they were not mis- taken. The successful and creditable celebration of the 200th anniversary in June 1860, was remembered by many of our older residents as an event of some magnitude and considerable importance which attracted at that time iruch favorable attention to the town throughout New Eng- land. While our older people remembered, our younger generation read about it, and the sentiment thus crystalized, favoring a celebration on a broader and grander scale was just what was needed to insure the success that has crowned the efforts of the 1910 Committee.


Although there was more or less preliminary discussion previous to 1910, it was not until January of that year that decided and definite action was taken. The following order was adopted :


IN BOARD OF MAYOR AND ALDERMEN.


MARLBOROUGH, MASS., January 17, 1910.


Whereas, the year 1910 will be the 250th anniversary of the incor- poration of Marlborough, and believing that this important event should be fittingly observed by a public celebration in which all our own people, as well as the people of the surrounding towns and cities can partici- pate ; it is hereby


Ordered: That the 250th anniversary of the incorporation of


398


Marlborough be observed by a public celebration, and that a committee consisting of the Mayor, two Aldermen, the President of the Common Council and two Councilmen be appointed to formulate plans and make any recommendations that may be necessary relating to the same.


Adopted.


Attest : P. B. MURPHY, Clerk. In Common Council, Jan. 24, 1910.


Adopted in concurrence.


Attest : L. F. PUTNAM, Clerk.


Approved Jan. 24, 1910.


JOHN J. SHAUGHNESSY, Mayor.


The amount voted by the City Council to expend was $4,000. In addition to this, sbout $2,400 was raised by subscription.


At a later meeting the full City Council was added to the committee and an Executive Board was appointed with Mayor John J. Shaughnessy Chairman, and J. J. O'Connor, Clerk. This Board was authorized to appoint sub-committees and the following is the full list as selected :
