The Boston Commercial tells this anus.
ing story: The w1ry old president of a
commercial bank is known among the
younger financial fry of his town as 'sOld
Naiis'-posslbly from his incisive decis-
ions and driving way of doing business.
Some time ago a business man of the
place, and brct.ier in. good standing OF
the church, had a note discounted at this
old worthys bank. When it came due,
the president, at the solicitation of the
maker friends, though against his own
Judgment, extended it. When the final
time Of payment came, the note was dis
covered to be forgery, to the scandal of
the church and the establishment Of the
town. but NOT to that OF the astute bank
president.
The brethren, however, rallied around
the erring one, toe note was paid, and
the matter supposed to be hushed I'd.
Some time after, however, the bank re.
ceived letter from another financial H.
asking their opinion as to Mr.
.-'s note. 7s -.~s- :. y
u sold Nails said he would answer the
letter which he did as follows: IN
