Advancement Of Norway Man.

About forty years ago Norway law
yer, Silas d. Burnham, went west and
settled In Lincoln, Nebraska. There he
became interested in banking. Remem-
brance of him has been strengthened OF
late by q clipping taken from the Ne
brasks Journal, which Ia reproduced be.

"At q meeting OF the directors Of the
First National Bank of Lincoln held
Wednesday evening, 1t was voted to In.
crease the capital stock OF the bank from
$500, 900 to 81 100000. In commenting
on the action taken by the directors,
President Burnham stated that this was
in keeping with the past progressive pol
| 10y of the bank to provide adequate
banking facilities for fast growing COM
munity, and provide larger banking pow.
ers to handle the increased industrial
development that will be inaugurated
upon the return OF normal conditions.
"Remarking upon the growth Of the
bank, Mr.. Burnham recalled his first
presidency of Q bank in Lincoln in 1888,
when he organized the American Elk
change National Bank with capital OF
$50, 200. Later the State National Bank
was purchased, and in 1899 acquired the
First National Bank, at that time having
q capital OF $500, 900. To provide addi-
tional Office space for its constantly 10.
creasing business, the present building
was erected In 1912. Two years ago II
was found necessary to enlarge the bank.
ing rooms, and still further alterations
are contemplst by the directors and
officers to provide more space and better
facilities for the operation OF the banks
business.
1.-THE assets of the First National
Bank, combined with the assets of its
affiliated institutions, the First Savings
Bank and the First Trust Company, az
gregate $13, 900, 000."
Mr.. Burnham was born at Summit
Springs In Harrison; but his family
moved to Norway when he was young
boy, and lived for many years on what is
known as the Benjamin Tucker farm.
Afterwards they moved to the village.
Mr.. Burnham attended the Norway
schools and Hebron Academy. he en-
tered Dartmouth College 10 1871, gradu.
ating in 1874. He had as classmate and
room mate, while In college, Herman L.
Horne. After graduating he studied law
with Henry NJ. Bearcs and, upon admis.
sion to the bar, became his partner.
Mr.. Burnhsm possessed foe tenor
voice and while studying and praotioing
law In Norway, organized male quar-
tet, the first organization of the kind In
this part of the country, of which he was
the first tenor. Mr.. Horne was also q
member. The quartet gave concerts In
all the nearby villages. The first con.
cert, other than by pupils, given by the
student body of Hebron Academy, was
by this quartet, assisted by two instru-
mentalists. This was In the spring of
1877.
1t was somewhere about 1880 that Mr..
Burnham went to Nebraska. He entered
the real estate business, with Horace
Oxuard, also of Norway, as a partner. 1t
was after Mr.. Oxnard's death that Mr..
Burnhsm went into the banking bust

with doors. The first change made was
while DR.. Adam Wilson was pastor here
when the galleries and pulpit were low

and platform and desk took its place.
The pews were changed and other i'm
provements added. Some other changes
we're made in the '70's'. The last change
was due to the late Rev. G. <. Harden as
was also the building of the present par
