Under the impression that you did not get your information directly from Mr. Hubbard, or from anyone familiar with the facts, I take occasion to say that the circumstances were probably much less alarming than you have been led to believe. On the failure of the banking house of Jay Cook & Co., at New York, in the year above mentioned, something of a scare passed over the country concerning the safety of national banks. The alarm was general and obliged a few institutions to protect themselves temporarily by paying depositors moderate installments only, taking time to gather in their outstanding assets. None proved unsound, however, according to my recollections, or unable to continue business as usual after the flurry of a few days was over. This bank had a large balance to its credit in New York, Detroit and Chicago, and its usual amount of cash in bank. On the first symptom of uneasiness on the part of depositors, money was ordered from the points above named, but before the arrival of any considerable amount the need of it had passed. The bank was fully prepared for the emergency and paid every depositor in full who called for his money. There was no occasion for Mr. Hubbard “to appear with an armful of mortgages and other securities” to offer depositors, nor did he ever tell me of having done so. That he would have done it in case of need there should be no doubt. I valued Mr. Hubbard very highly as a business associate, and greatly deplore his untimely death. Next to myself he was the largest shareholder in the organization, and was an able director from the first. It has been a matter of pride to us both that the institution has always been independent in its circumstances, has never borrowed of other banks or had a piece of paper discounted during its existence of nearly twenty years. Respectfully, Chas. T. Gorham, Pres. Resolution passed Jan. 3, 1885, by Marshall grange No. 83: WEREAS, On the death of a member of the grange it is customary to give expression to sentiments of respect, sorrow and sympathy by resolutions: therefore, Resolved. By the officers and members of Marshall grange No. 83, regularly assembled, that as a tribute of repect for our departed brother, Deville Hubbard, and in honor of his having been our first worthy master, we cause the master’s gavel to be draped in mourning for a period of thirty days. Resolved. That the earnest, heartfelt sympathy of this grange be extended to the bereaved family in this their time of trial and affliction. Resolved. That these resolutions be spread upon the records of this grange and copies furnished the city papers and Grange Visitor, also a copy be sent to the family of the deceased, under the seal of the grange.
