Lawrence-The Bay State National Bank of Lawrence is the oldest and among the most prominent financial institutions in Essex county. It is the only National bank in Lawrence, and received its char- ter February 10, 1847, under the earlier banking system of the country. It was organized May 17, 1847, with Charles S. Storrow as president, and Nathaniel White as cashier. Its first capital was fixed at $200,000, soon raised to $500,000. Soon after the organization of this bank, a piece of land at the corner of Essex and Lawrence streets was deeded by the Essex Company, and a fine structure was erected thereon, a portion of which building was used for banking purposes for fifty-seven years. The price paid for the lot just mentioned was one dollar per foot. The original building was of brick, three stories in height, with banking rooms on the second floor. On April 17, 1861, two days before the gallant Sixth Regiment marched through Baltimore, the directors voted $25,000 for the use of the government. In 1865 the bank became a National or Federal bank. As the years passed and business rapidly increased, more room was demanded and secured by this concern; the
615

last change and addition being effected in 1912, when the building was greatly enlarged and improved. It now has a frontage on Essex street of seventy-six feet, by two hundred and six feet in depth. The cost of this fine structure was about a half million dollars. It is the highest structure in Lawrence. It has in all, two hundred and thirty rooms, devoted to offices principally. This institution does a general banking business, and is equipped with the most modern fixtures and safety vaults. Three years ago its capital stock was $375,000; surplus $225,- 000; deposits, $2,200,000; assets, $3,400,000.
The Essex Savings Bank, the largest bank in Essex county, and the first savings bank established in the city of Lawrence, was incor- porated March 15, 1847, and commenced business the following October, in the rooms of the old Bay State Bank building. Charles S. Storrow was the first president, and Nathaniel White the first treasurer. Mr. Storrow served until 1860, and was succeeded by George D. Cabot, and he in turn by Joseph Shattuck in 1877. Mr. Shattuck retired in 1903, after twenty-six years as president. Walter E. Parker, the present in- cumbent, was then elected president. Nathaniel White filled the office of treasurer until called by death in September, 1866. He was followed by James H. Eaton, who served until his death, March, 1901. During his service of thirty-four years Mr. Eaton applied himself diligently to the work of the bank. His conscientious devotion to duty, together with his strong personality and remarkable ability in matters of finance, won for him an enviable reputation and redounded to the success of the in- stitution. At his decease Joseph Shattuck, Jr., was elected treasurer, resigning in 1902, to accept a similar position in the Springfield Institu- tion for Savings, Springfield, Mass. He was succeeded by Albert I. Couch, who still fills the office. This bank owns its own building at the corner of Essex and Lawrence streets. The bank's quarters were large- ly increased in size in 1917 by the addition of other adjoining property owned by the bank. The institution has the best of facilities for the prompt and efficient transaction of business, and the protective devices are of the most approved description. The security vault is of very heavy construction and equipped with the most modern electrical pro- tective appliances. The resources of the bank are now $19,600,000; de- posits amount to $17,700,000 ; the surplus is $1,750,000. The Essex Sav- ings Bank has never failed to compound interest each April and October, and the 147 dividends already declared amount to $16,664,573.72. Since Mr. Couch became treasurer, about twenty years ago, the deposits have increased more than $9,000,000, while the surplus and undivided profits have increased more than $900,000. The bank has always enjoyed the confidence of all classes in the community, hence its wonderful growth.
