Partners lor 41 Years

When the Central National Bank opened its door Febmary 28,1883, Greencastle was a straggling little town with streets of mud and a hitch rack around the Court House Square. A horse car resembling the proportions of the “Toonerville Trolley” plied between the north and south railroad stations. In these 41 years the town has grown to be a thriving, modern city, sending out to the world 13,000 carloads of Putnam county products annually; 150 new homes have been built within the past four years. Throughout the years this institution has kept pace growing with the community and helping the community to grow. Moving with its partner—hand in hand—through depression and prosperity, it has acquired the Experience of Age while retaining the Vigor of Youth. Countless men who established their accounts here in the eighties, young, poor and unknown, we greet today as substantial men of affairs. The great majority of the bank’s first patrons have passed on but the names of their children and grandchildren and great grand-children appear on our books. Other generations of depositors will follow, for the “Central”, having kept the faith and being built on a bedrock as solid as the town itself, will live on.
