and fair dealing. The full confidence
OF the people, together with an ample
capital, placed Baker & Boyer in the
front rank from the start as bankers.
That position has since been main
tanned by the several successors in
management until the strength and
high character of the various Baker
q Boyer interests are unquestioned
wherever known.
The Baker-Bo National Bank
was Incorporated in 1889 to succeed
to the business of the Baker & Boyer
private bank. This change was made
more for the purpose of segregating
the individual interests of heirs and
relatives than to introduce needed
change in the manner of conducting
the business. AS the old bank had
been owned by the founders, so also
is the stock of the Baker Boyer Ma
uonal Bank owned by their heirs and
relatives, and the vast holding of the
two families are commonly spoken of
as the Baker estate, which aggregates
between four and five million dollars

one hundred thousand dollars capital

as he was in almost all the enter
