Our present business was. es tablished by our predecessors in 1882, thirty-five years ago, and we are today doing business with the same people as at the begin ning. Our records will show that during the past twenty years, there has not been a day when we have not had approved loans in process of being closed, and there has not been a day during that time when business of the right sort was delayed for lack of funds. The explanation of this record is that from the beginning, and without variation, our busi ness has been characterized by efficiency, good faith, and clean methods. No investor has ever claimed that we had knowingly sacrificed his interests to our own, and no borrower has ever claim ed justly that we had misled him with false promises or worked any hurt to him for our own pro fit. Our methods having been perfected by years of experience; all applicants can learn without delay whether we can or cannot accommodate them. The dis patch with which we dispose of business, favorably or unfavor ably, is unsurpassed if equaled by any people in our line. Our rates are reasonable and all con ditions favorable to borrowers.
