CANON CITY BUSINESS
MEMS MEMORIAL

The Business Mems Association of
Canon City, representing the entire
business and professional interests of
the city, deeply sensible of the great
loss sustained by our community in
the death OF one of it's members, Fred
eric 4. Reynolds, which occurred on
the eighth day of March, 1906, and de-
string to give some suitable expression
to the high esteem in which he was
held among his associates in this
Organization, does unanimously adopt
the following memorial tribute, and di-
rect that the same be entered on the
records of the Association:
Mr.. Reynolds was born in Canton,
Ohio, September &c, 1850. He came to
this city in the fall of 1874. and in the
early part of the following year open
ed up an individual banking business.
which developed into what is now
known as the Fremont County Bank.
In this chosen pursuit. he has achieved
the highest measure of success, the
bank, of which he has been the head
for more than thirty years, being justly
regarded as one of the best and most
substantial banking institutions in the
state.
He was careful. thorough and con-
servative in all his actions, and pos
sessed unusual business talent. He
accumulated large wealth and used 1t
freely in assisting every worthy cause.
No needy person was ever turned away
without practical assistance. He was
enthusiastic in his support of all the
churches of the community, having
contributed to the building fund of
each new church erected during his
long residence in the city,
He gave cordial announcement and
liberal financial support to every pub
lie enterprise.
In broad and liberal sense the
community has lost a truly good man;
a helpful associate: an honorable and
useful citizen, He died at period
of mature manhood, in the midst of
his usefulness.
We deeply deplore his death, and ex-
tend to his family our sincere SYM
pathy. T. b. COULTER,
