John A. Lynch, president of the Ma
tiOnal Bank of the Republic, and one of
the founders of that institution, was
born In Chicago about fOrty-iive years
ago and has lived In this city all his
life. His first business experience was
gained as n member OF the distilling
firm of II. II. Schufeldt 4 Co., his con-
nection with that concern being formed
Immediately after his graduation from
college. The venture proved Il profita-
BILE one and when, some years later, the
business was merged with the old whis-
ky trust Mr.. Lynch turned his attention
to the banking field and took leading
part in the organization of the National
Bank of the Republic. The first presi'
dent of that institution was j. b. Nal
lers, but he held the Office only few
months, and upon his retirement Mr..
Lynch was chosen to succeed him. Mr..

event Mr.. Reed would make a most
