History of the [First Bank Of Ligoni 5y Mier State Bank began with the business transactimas of Solomon Mier about the year 1856 when the people, having gained confidence in the young man, began to leave their surplus with him at his store in ‘Ligonier and received in return certificates of deposit. In the latter part of the6o’s Sol Mier entered more extensively into banking and hisplace of business became known as the Banking House of Sol Mier. On January 1 1900, the men who are now the officials of the present institution associated themselves with the late iSolomon Mier and the Banking House of Sol Mier became known as the Banking House of Sol Mier Company. On June 15 1905, The Banking House of Sol Mier Comipany qualified under the State law and became Mier Stateßank, thereby being the OLDEST BANK in Ligonier, the LARGEST BANK in Ligonier and the FIRST STATE BANNK in Ligonier. ; ; The reasons are evident as the Mier State Bank has always been known as the “Old Reliable” and the “Bank of Secrecy” where no outsider knows your business. The standing and responsibility of this old institution are the very hijghea&md the depositors have always known that their business was not alone safe with the Mier State Bank, but that business entrusted to its care was unknown to the public, and the results are that the Mier State Bank has depositors in all parts of the state, who do their banking by mail. There are names on the Bank’s books today that were on the books 50 years ago. Children’s children continue to bank with the “Old Reliable.” . _ If not a customer why not- join our large family and become one of us? We will extend to you all the courtesies and you can always get any accommodations you might need from—the Mier State Bank.
