STATEMENT OF CONDITION OF
THE CITIZENS STATE BANK
Butler, Ga.
AT CLOSE OF BUSINESS
May 31, 1933.
As Called for by the Superintendent of Banks
J. W. EDWARDS, President L. R. ADAMS, Cashier.
Date of Bank’s Charter Sept. 4, 1926. Date Began Business Sept. 4, 1920.
The graduation of Mr. Edgar Wil
lett Pugh, from Detroit. Mich., City
Law School last week came as a sur
prise to many of his Georgia friends
who had no idea that he could find
time for such study while holding a
responsible position with the Feueml
Internal Revenue factors of that
section. Mr. Pugh has evidently ab
sorbed some of the sagacity with
which we credit the "Yankee," or
else developed some of his own in
herent, latent ability and acumen, for
he made this last accomplishment
through night school attendance.
His parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. W.
Pugh, of Lumpkin, are in receipt of
a handsome invitation folder autho
rized by the Board of Education,
City of Detroit, for the graduation
exencises June 6. A newspaper clip
ping also states that E. W. Pugh and
James Stewart were gold medal win
ners in the scholastic awards. A
business transfer which means pro
motion now takes Edgar from De
troit to Marquette, Mich.—Stewart
Webster Journal.
The Pugh family have many warm
friends in Taylor county who will be
interested in the above, and will be
pleased to join the Herald in extend
ing congratulations.
