T. G, Hendricks and S. B. Eakin opened the doors of the Bank for the first time on December 16, 1883. These gentlemen were highly respected and trusted by their fellow citizens. The start which they so humbly . made has served as the foundation for our present insti tution,' . f i . j: ' , , ($On February 27, 1886 the bank was nationalized, tak ing the name of The First National Bank of Eugene, Ore., and has been uncler practically the same management ever since; in fact it was in that year that Mr. P. E. Snodgrass, .now president, first became associated with the institu tion. CjJNo phenomenal success is claimed by the Bank, but only a steady growth with the Community it has now served for forty-two years. Our success has been due to the prosperity of this community and to the faith and. con fidence which it has seen fit to repose in the Bank. The recent enlargement of the Bank's quarters is an in dication" of our faith in the continued growth and pro sperity of Eugene. Our aim now, as it was in 1 883, is to grow with the community by carefully preserving our reputation for upright and conservative principles of banking. ; .'..,..;'-,..!
