strict banking rules, he can be Of little help
Mr. Fuller possessed the courage and sagacty to make
his banking business successful, but he tempered them
with a sympathetic understanding Of the pioneers
problems that enabled him to forget the strict code of
the banker when occasion demanded and such occas-
