The proposed new bank, to be known ss the Pawcatuck Bank and Trust com 7ary, with fts 22 incorporators. is - o5 located In Pawcatuck for the pur- pose of giving depositors in this sec ton of the town of Stonington an op- portunity to bank their money and to do banking business In general in their own state and town. Pawcatuclt de- bends on Westerly for It's banking, be- cause of there being no banking insti- tution In Connecticut nearer than Ston- tuticn. five miles away, and Mystic, still another four miles beyond Stonington making the distance to the latter place nine miles. The people on the Pawca- tuck side come to Westerly, R. |, for this privilege, and thus are subjected to ! state tax to the state of Connecticut on all banking business done out of the state and yet Westerly with its two fine baNking institutions Is the nearest place for these people who i've only a stones throw across the border line. suita- ole spot for the institution to locate g next to be considered The place own d by Mary Rogers, on West Broad street. directly across from the Mis- sion IS being talked of as it Is certainly located in the business section and cIoye 10 where was located the former Ma tional Bank of Pawcatuck now the store of Silverstein- When the proposition was up before the general assembly some time ago with reference to bank coating in Mystic, there was much op- 3ozition, but in Pawcatuek, conditions srs different, there are no chances for the people other than on the Rhode Island side.
