A Safe Bank

There is every reason to believe that
the Savings Banks of Vermont are all
safe, sound and strong That the public
so believe is evidenced by the recent re-
port of the Inspector of Banks showing
almost unprecedented gains in deposits
during the past year. If the confidence
in the safety of Vermont Savings Banks,
however, is to be measured by the growth
Of deposits, then unquestionably the
Hyde Park Savings Bank holds the first
place, for its percentage of increase in
deposits during the three fiscal years
ending July l, 1910, barring perhaps some
recently established banks upon which
of course a percentage basis of increase
could not be computed, is more than
that OF any other bank in the state.
Stated in terms that can be understood
by all, the deposits in the Hyde Park
Savings Bank during the last three years
have exceeded the Withdrawals by more
than $1,000 for each business day during
the entire three years, We know of no
parallel anywhere, except in some of the
large City Banks.
The Hyde Park Bank pays 4 per cent.
interest, compounded semi-annually, and
deposits made before November 10th will
draw interest from October 1st. 1t pays
the taxes on all deposits up to $1,000
and the Lamoille County National Bank
of Hyde Park, under the same manage
ment, will accept, upon the same terms,
any sums in excess of this $1,000.
AS evidencing the safety of making de-
posits by mail, 1t may be stated that in
the more than twenty-one years of its
existence, not a dollar of remittances to
the Hyde Park Savings Bank, by mail,
has ever been lost 1t is entirely safe to
make deposits either by personal check,
bank draft, postal money order, express
order or cash in registered letter. This
Bank respectively solcts your deposits.
If any further information is desired,
send your post office address on a postal
to either Carroll s. Page, President or
F. M. Culver, Treasurer, Hyde Park,
Vermont, and a prompt reply will be

A press despatch from Florence, Italy,
Saturday announced the death there that
day of Larliin Goldsmith Mead, 70, the
noted American sculptor who spent his
early life in Brattleboro and who began
his career in art by modelling in snow the
figure of an angel upon his return to
this town from a period of study in New
York city. The despatch contained only
the mere announcement of Mr.. Mead's
death, no details being given, and it came
as a shock to his many personal friends
here and elsewhere and to the lovers of
the best in American art throughout the
country.
Mr. and Mrs. Mead came to Brattleboro
in the spring of 1897, after an absence of

The Mead family home in Brattleboro
stood between the Dowley and Whitney
residences on Main street It now stands at
the corner of Forest and Chaplin streets
and is owned by Judge James L. Tyler
The only surviving members of the
family of Larkin q. Mead, ST., are
Joanna wife of Augustus D. Shepard of
New York. head of the American Bank
Note company, and William Rutherford

child, John Noyes Mead, died in 1850

30 years and they remained here and in
cottage at Spofford lake several weeks
visiting the place where Mr.. Mead was
born in Chesterfield, renewing old ac-
quaintances and forming new friendships.
Mr.. Meads sister. Miss Mary Mead. since
deceased, was with them much of the
time. They broke camp July and sailed
from New York city for Italy July 10.
Before leaving Brattleboro Mr. Mead
said to some of his friends that he felt
he was making his last visit to the scenes
of his early life
In May of the present year announce
ment was made in the Unitarian church
of this village of the gift to the church
by Henry X. Willard of Washington, d.
c., of replica of Mr.. Mead's snow statue.
The Recording Angel" in memory of his
father and mother, Henry Augustus
Willard and Sarah Bradley Willard. both
of whom died in the autumn of 1909.
When Mr.. Willard visited Mr. Mead in
Florence last spring he found that the
sculptor had replica of the statue in
marble, with alabaster pedestal, which
he bought, so while Mr. Mead has gone
the knowledge that a copy of his first
work of art, and one of the best known
will remain here in the town where it
was conceived is a source of wide salts
faction. In fulfllment of Mr.. Mead's
desire the replica first will be placed on
exhibition in the Brooks Free library.
The birth of Mr. Mead occurred in
Chesterfield, N. H., Jan. 8, 1885. His
father, Hon. Larkin G. Mead attended
Dartmouth college and practiced law in
Chesterfield. In 1929 the elder Mead mar
ried Mary James Noyes daughter of Hon.
John Noyes of Putney. In 1899, four years
after the son was born, the family moved
to Brattleboro and Larkin G. Mead, ST.,
became treasurer of the Vermont Saw
ings bank holding the position % years.
He died in July, 1869.
In his boyhoood days Larkin G.
Mead, jr had a clerkship in the hard
ware store of Williston & Tyler. His
frequent copies from nature on paper, on
canvas and in marble in 1858 caused his
friends to predict that he would not long
remain behind the counter. His natural
aptitude attracted the attention of Henry
X. Brown, a New York artist with the
result that he became a student in Mr..
Browns studio. His return home two
years later was marked by the modelling
of THE Recording Angel" a striking
manifestation of his genius.
Soon after this Mr.. Mead received sew
eral commissions. One was from Nicholas
Longworth of Cincinnati for a duplicate
of the snow statue in marble. Another
was from Richards Bradley of Brattle-
boro for a marble bust of his grandfather,
Hon William c. Bradley. A full length
statue of Ethan Allen was made by him
for the state of Vermont and it is now
in the state house in Montpelier. St.
Johnsbury ordered a statue of America"
