bank building was finally completed
and cost fifteen million dollars; that it
would be one Of the finest and largest
banking institutions in the world, and
all Of the details in constructing the
building and the combining Of the
three banks mentioned above has come
to pass, just as related in these col
umns the first part Of August 1919.
Mr.. Mitchell knocked off from bust
ness during our interview with him and
at that point he went on to state that
he was we'll pleased with his new bank

the bank occupied FIVE entire floors or
six acres Of floor space; that all Of
the Offices on the remaining fifteen or
sixteen floors were occupied by first
class -tenarss;- lllalt the bank could
figure out its rent free and then FIVE
per cent was in sight on an invest
ment of fifteen million dollars, and
there is no mortgage whatever on the
building to the extent Of one dollar.
AT that point Mr.. Mitchell was in
formed that that was very remarkable
piece of financial engineering on the
part Of himself and on the part Of his
associates to construct the third larg-
est Office and banking building in the
world, and to have it free Of debt
That if our memory served us correct

looking well and feeling fine, was busi-
" engaged in working as fast and as
hard as he possibly could. AS we
approached his desk he arose from his
chair warmly extending his right hand,
at the same time requesting US to be

chell promptly replied that that state
ment on your part is true.
In winding up our very pleasant
interview with him Mr.. Mitchell was
informed that it must be very gratify-
ing indeed to him and to his good
and lovable wife, Mrs. Mitchell to
note the activity of their highly ac-
complished daughter, Miss Louise
Mitchell, in club, social and charitable
work and SO on. Mr.. Mitchell re-
sponded BY saying, not because she
was his daughter, but that she is a
splendid and practical young woman,
and that he was exceedingly glad to
see her become SO deeply interested
in charity and Is willing to strive to
assist those who are less fortunate
than herself.
Mr.. Mitchell, who is numbered
among our good friends in this city,
warmly declared that he and Mrs.
Mitchell felt very proud of all of their
children and dearly loved all Of them.
