Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Annual Report: To Which Is Appended a Review of Business Conditions During the Year 1915
Your Directors deeply regret to record the loss by death during the year of one of their colleagues, the late General Manager, Mr. Alexander Laird. Although a member of the Board only since 1911, Mr. Laird had served the Bank in many capacities for nearly forty years, becoming General Manager in 1907 and retiring only a few months ago. He had an international reputation as a banker and expert in foreign exchange, and his death is an irreparable loss to the Bank and to the whole community.
