At his return in 1893, he was the Imperial Ottoman Commissioner for the Chicago Exposition. He was exclusively engaged, for many years, as a lyceum lecturer by the Redpath Bureau at the conclusion of his pastorate in 1897. He was eloquent as a preacher and lecturer. Professor Blackie of Great Britain once said "The greatest orator I know is Lord Roseberry; next to him, if not his equal, stands Z.T.</p>

<p>Bartholomew County History, Vol. II</p>
<p>Columbus Chapter</p>
<p>A Columbus-based business, the Union Starch and Refining company, which had its offices here from 1922 until 1967 following its sale, was the nearby town of Edinburgh's leading industry in the early 1900's. When the Irwin family was building its interurban line through Edinburgh 1902-03, the idle Blue River Starch Works there was bought from the starch trust interests, ostensibly only for its electric power plant to provide part of the current. But the buyers also had other things in mind and in 1904 the manufacture of starch was started in the old plant under a partnership composed of Joseph I. Irwin, William G. Irwin, Joseph E. Irwin of the Irwin bank and Harold P. Hughes, former Columbus grocer. Then in 1908 came Pennant syrup, which was sold nationally as the country's most popular corn syrup. Hugh Th. Miller, father of J. Irwin Miller, was credited with selecting the Pennant name. At a meeting of the officers during the World Series baseball games, a name for the new syrup was discussed, along with speculation over the World Series winner, and Miller came up with Pennant.</p>
<p>In 1912 the business was incorporated under the name Union Starch and Refining company. The five incorporators were William G. Irwin, president; his sister, Mrs. Linnie I. Sweeney; Hugh Th. Miller; Joseph E. Irwin, and Harold Hughes. In the 1913-1920 period the plant employed up to 400 persons</p>

<p>and in 1922 the general offices were moved from Edinburg to Columbus, occupying the second floor of the Irwin Bank building at northeast corner of Third and Washington streets. That same year the company purchased a plant at Granite City, Ill., and in 1923 started operations there, closing the Edinburgh facility, which included 13 buildings. Union Starch was believed to be the first to produce an imitation maple—flavored syrup and it manufactured a wide variety of produces. Among these were syrups, both liquid and dried starch, sugars. artificial sweetners and mixes, corn oil, gluten meal and feed, concentrated lime and lemon juice powders, antibiotics and caramel color. The company also eventually had manufacturing interests in Mexico, Columbia, Peru and the Philippines.</p>
<p>The offices in Columbus were expanded to include the first floor of the former Irwin Bank building and later included part of the building at the southeast corner of Third and Washington. Total sales in 1965 approximated $26,000,000. After re-opening part of the Edinburgh plant in l947, with Carl Allison as manager, to manufacture White Seal Marshmal-O-Creme, a marshmallow creme mix, a new building was erected at Edinburgh in 1963-64 to produce cyclamate, a non-nutritive sweetner. The same year Union Starch sold its packaged goods business, including Pennant syrup, marshmallow cream products and powdered flavorings, to firms in Louisville, Ky., and Iowa. Miles Laboratories, Inc., of Elkhart, Ind., purchased</p>

<p>Union Starch in 1966 for $11,250,000 and the general offices in Columbus were closed in December, 1967. At that time there were 70 office employees. Cyclamate production at Edinburgh was halted in 1969 after the federal government banned cyclamates as a possible cancer cause. There were 21 employees at Edinburgh and W.L. Kaser of Columbus was plant supervisor. In 172 Miles Laboratories ceased operations at the Granite City plant, ending the Union Starch entity. Most of the Edinburgh property was sold to Bo-Witt Products, Inc., of Edinburgh, headed by William C. Bobbs of Columbus.</p>
<p>William G. Irwin was president of Union Starch until his death in 1943. He was succeeded by Mrs. Sweeney, who died in 1944. Hugh Th. Miller then served until his death in 1947 and was succeeded by his son, J. Irwin Miller. In 1953 Earl B. Pulse, who had been with the company 17 years, was elected president and Miller became chairman of the board. Following death of Pulse on June 8, 1959, Miller again held the office until 1961 when Theodore R. Reed was named president. Reed resigned in 1967 when the offices here were closed and became a partner in the S.D. Leidesdorf public accounting firm in New York city. He had joined Union Starch in 1952, coming from New York. He died Dec. 3, 1972. Earl Pulse, who was born in Columbus March 25. 1908, was active in civic and governmental affairs at both the local and state levels and was a trustee of Indiana University, from which he graduated in 1950 [struck out by hand and corrected to 1930]. He also was an associate faculty member with the university's School of Business. Pulse was a past president</p>

<p>of Columbus Chamber of Commerce and served a term on the city council. He joined Union Starch in 1937.</p>
<p>Harold P. Hughes, one of the original founders of Union Starch, retired in 1930 and was then vice-president of Union Sales corporation, the marketing division. Before joining in Union Starch, Hughes, a native of Jennings county, was in the grocery business in Columbus with a brother, John V. Hughes. He died Sept. 12, 1934. Joseph E. Irwin, a distant relative of Joseph I. Irwin, retired from Union Starch in 1942. He died October 31, 1962, in Los Angeles, Calif. Another of the early executives was W. W. Adams, sone of a Columbus druggist. He died Aug. 26, 1943, age 75, and at that time was vice~president and general manager. He joined Union Starch when the company offices were still in Edinburgh. Paul H. Stambaugh, a sales executive and formerly of Youngstown, Ohio, joined Union Starch in 1928. He retired in 1950 and was then a view-president. Stambaugh died Oct. 6, 1959, age 74.</p>
<p>In 1955 the company honored employees of 25 years or more service. Honored from Columbus were Elmer Dean, 32 years; Erwin C. Fisher, 29 years; Mrs. Fern (Ira) Crane, 27 years; John Stewart, custodian, 30 years; Gerald Haislup, 26 years; and Deryl Foster, 25 years. Several of these continued many more years. Elmer Dean retired in the mid-1950's. He died December 31, 1962. Deryl Foster remained with the company until 1964. He died June 15, 1980. Erwin C. Fisher retired in</p>

<p>Among later executives in Columbus were Giles W. Anderson, C. Harris Weerts, Herschel E. O'Shaughnessey and James P. Casey, who joined the firm in 1959 and resided in Columbus before transer to Granite City. In 1967 Weerts, who had been with Union Starch since 1949, became an officer of Cosco, Inc., here and in 1971 an official with American Fletcher National bank in Indianapolis, retaining his residence in the Columbus area. O'Shaughnessey, with Union Starch since 1958, became an officer with Cummins Engine company. George W. Newlin, present president of Irwin Management company, was with Union Starch 1946-58 as an officer in an investing capacity after being with Cummins Engine company, starting in 1940, and then serving in the Navy. Others who had been with the company prominently in Columbus included Thomas Freese, Wlater L. Sneed, R. L. Baker, William Griffith and Charles Dry.</p>
<p>Several employees moved to Granite City after the Columbus office was closed. They included George F. Cook, Carl Allison, Wallace Goeller, Mrs. Betty Reed, Wayne Jackson, Theodore Allen, William Bissell and Thayer Small. When Miles Laboratories ended its Granite City operations in 1972 some assets were sold to Corn Sweetners, Inc., of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and it continued to make carmel color at Granite City.</p>

Any textual data included in the document
Six-page typewritten document
Typewritten text (sheet 1):
1846 - June -- Mr. Joseph I. Irwin came to Columbus from his farm home in Johnson with, so the story goes, fifty cents in his pocket. He went to work for a dry goods store owned by Snyder and Alden which was located xxxxxxxxx on the east side of Washington Street, and south of the Fourth Street intersection. He worked for this firm xxxx for about three and one-half years. During this time he had saved $150.00 which he thought was sufficent to open his own store.
1850 - On January 1st, Mr. Irwin opened his own store at the southwest corner of Fourth and Washington (then Walnut ) XXXXXX Street, and continued in merchandising until 1891 when he sold his store to two employees and devoted all of his time to banking.
1850 - August 15th, Joseph I. Irwin was married to Harriet C. Glanton
1849 - Francis J. Crump, a sucessful carpenter and builder, had accumulated enough funds to advertise he would purchase notes for cash –
1851 - He, together with two other men, added the first addition to the town of Columbus and it was known as Irwin, Jones, and Mounts Addition. The story about the narrowness of Sixth Street is that Mr. Irwin and the landowner on the north, agreed each to give half of the street width. The other owner refused, so Sixth Street is Mr. Irwin's half only.
In the meantime - Mr. Irwin had the only safe in town and acted as a depository for funds of the townspeople and farmers. He told Clessie L, Cummins, the inventor of the Cummins Diesel Engine, that the first time he realized he was in the banking business was when a farmer from west of town presented him with a note written on sycamore bark saying, "Mr. Irwin, please pay to ________ $5.00 from my poke in your safe". Members of the Irwin family say he was in the "banking business” before the Civil War. He was also appointed as a government representative during the Civil War to buy pork and grain to feed the Union Army. He was so successful in this undertaking that these activities were called to the attention of the "Knights of the Golden Circle" who had an organization in Columbus, and they drew lots to see who would assinate Mr. Irwin. The lot was drawn by a man who had a gun shop on Washington Street. He knew Mr. Irwin's punctual habits and that he passed his store at the same time each day. He did carry out the plan to shoot Mr. Irwin (not because he wanted to, but because it washis lot to do so) and apparently the window glass of his store window deflected the bullet enough that it went through Mr. Irwin's hat and missed head.
Typewritten text (sheet 2):
1853 - B. F. Jones & Co., organized a bank and it later became McEwen & Sons. This bank failed in 1871.
1862 - Joseph I. Irwin platted his own first addition to the City of Columbus.
1862
to 1 864- Hezekiah and Randolph Griffith had a private bank, known as Griffith Brother's Bank. Mr. Randolph Griffith was the first president of the First National Rank, organized
1865 - March 23 - their private bank, being the nucleous for the National Bank.
1863 - BANKING ACT????
Between 1850
and 1862, we know Joseph I. Irwin continued in his general store business in various locations. It has been said that his store was next to the Kitzinger Bakery when the bakery was established and this wasin 1862. Mr. Wm. G. Irwin had said that his father and mother lived over their store which was next to the Kitzinger Bakery and Mr. and Mrs. Kitzinger lived over the bakery.
1864 - Joseph I. Irwin built his first house at the corner of Fifth (Harrison) and Mechanic ? (Lafayette Avenue) Streets. It was rebuilt in 1880 and remodeled early in 1900.
1864 - Columbus was chartered as a city.
1866 - Mr. Irwin added his second and third Additions to the city.
1871 - The McEwen Bank failed and Mr. Joseph Irwin received a charter as a private bank called IRWIN'S BANK.
1876 - Mr. Irwin still did not consider himself as a banker primarily, as he was listed as a merchant in the State Atlas dated 1876.
His store was, at this time, on the east side of Washington Street, between Third and Fourth, north of the alley, apparently about ___ Washington Street.
He had an ad in The Daily Evening Republican on Saturday, November 17, 1877:
"BANKING HOUSE JOSEPH I. IRWIN
Is now doing a regular Banking Business at his store
94 Washington Street
Exchange on the principal cities bought and sold at reasonable rates.
Business Solicited.
In the early childhood of Margaret Perkinson Schwartzkopf, who was born in 1868, She remembers going with her mother into Mr. Irwin's store which was at the location "on the east side of Washington Street, between Third and Fourth, north of the alley, about half-way" . She said she was always fascinated by the large blacksafe he
Typewritten text (sheet 3):
had in his "bank“‘. About halfway back in the store, on the north side, there was a section set off by a railing or cage-type of construction, and this was furnished with a desk and this black safe. This was, probably, the safe Mr. Irwin acquired from the McEwen bank when it failed. It was still in the Irwin's Bank when they merged in 1928.
This desk and safe and Joseph I.Irwin was IRWIN'S BANK, until 1881.
1874 - A Farmer's Bank was organized but it failed in 1876.
1876 - Records of business show a bank listed as Conant and Whitney. ????
1881 - Mr. Joseph I. Irwin built the building at 301 Washington Street and moved his store and bank. The bank occupied a small room in the northwest corner of the store building. It had a separate entrance on Washington Street - a real bank! Another door at the rear connected it with the store. Joseph I. Irwin and his assistnat, Finney Alden, "ran" the bank. Later a clerk, Vida Buxton Hughes was added. Margaret Perkinson Schwartzkopf clerked in the store in 1888 and 1889 and Mr. Irwin had a bell signal to call her into the bank room to help when needed.
Mr. Wm. E. Marsha a veteran newspaper reporter, says in his book about Columbus, that Mr. Irwin had a sign posted by the door in his bank which is typical, "This is a Private Bank and I own it. Joseph I. Irwin". Mr. Irwin had his own ideas of thrift and money management, the success of which no one can deny. Many stories of his early banking days show his method. One man told he was asked to be in Mr. Irwin's office at 1:30. He was a merchant and could not leave his store in time to keep the appointment. He was 30 minutes late and never did he learn what Mr. Irwin wanted. Another incident related was that of a man coming into Mr. Irwin's office smoking a cigar. He wanted to borrow money and Mr. Irwin informed him that since he had money to burn, he had none to loan him. These are incidents characteristic of Joseph I. Irwin, but more important is the fact that he xxxxxxxxx contributed more to the /early building of Columbus than any other person. He loaned money to the men in whom he had confidence and in so doing he helped to build the businesses of Columbus and Bartholomew County. Up and down Main Street his money went to work and all about town factories sprang up to give people work. Many of these businesses, xxx or their successors, are in existence today in Columbus. In making money for himself he always contributed to the well-being of his neighbors. xxxxxxxx At the same time, his private funds were being used to build roads and electric lines to add to the existing railroads. It is said he assisted in constructing 40 miles of turnpike roads in Bartholomew County.
Typewritten text (sheet 4):
1889- William Glanton Irwin, son of Joseph I. Irwin, became bank cashier.
1891 - Mr. Joseph I. Irwin sold his store to two clerks - Oscar Fiegenbaum and Fred J. Meyer, who operated it for about two years and then moved into other quarters.
19__ - The bank building was remodeled for full occupancy as a bank. Fixtures were purchased from the Indiana National Bank who were remodeling at that time. George Vorwald went to Indianapolis with Mr. William G. Irwin to purchase them.
1910 - August 13, Mr. Joseph I. Irwin died and his son, William G. Irwin, succeeded him as president of Irwin's Bank. William G. Irwin became national ly known as a financier, industrialist, and philanthropist. He carried on the traditions and ideas in banking and building the town of Columbus that his father had. xxxxxxxx He was, as his father before him, "Mr. Banker" to the people of Columbus. At his death, December 14, 1943, he was, among many other things, president of the IndianaNationalBank and his many abilities were widely acclaimed in the nation's newspapers.

<p>HISTORY OF IRWIN UNION BANK AND TRUST COMPANY</p>
<p>COLUMBUS, INDIANA</p>
<p>Mr. Joseph I. Irwin, the founder of IRWIN’S BANK, came to Columbus in June, 1846 from his farm home in Johnson County, Indiana. He was twenty-two years old and had thirty cents in his pocket which his mother had given him. He went to work for $3.00 per week in Snyder and Alden's dry goods store and remained in their employ for three and one-half years. During this time he had saved enough money to open his own store and on January 1, 1850, began operating his own business.</p>
<p>Mr. Irwin's mercantile business continued to prosper and, since he had the only money safe in town, he used it as a depository for funds of the townspeople and farmers. He told Clessie Cummins, the inventor of the Cummins Diesel, that the first time he realized he was in the banking business was when a farmer presented him with anotew from another farmer written on sycamore bark saying, "Mr. Irwin, please pay Jim Brown $5.00 from my poke in your safe". He was well known through his many business enterprises and during the Civil War acted as a government representative to purchase hogs and grain for the Union Army.</p>
<p>About 1862 he moved to a larger building and expanded his store, continuing to use his safe as a depository for his customers. In 1871 the McEwen Bank in Columbus failed and in that same year Mr. Irwin received a charter for his private bank, IRWIN'S BANK. He purchased the McEwen Bank safe which was much larger than the onehe had been using and continued to expand his banking business. However, even after the bank was chartered, Mr. Irwin did not consider himself primarily as a banker, as he is listed in the 187 State Atlas as a merchant. Bartholomew County Museum has a copy of THE DAILY EVENING REPUBLICAN dated Saturday, November 17, 1877, which carried the following advertisement BANKING HOUSE * JOSEPH I. IRWIN</p>
<p>Is now doing a regular Banking business at his store, 94 Washington Street. Exchange on the principal cities bought and sold at reasonable rates. Business solicited.</p>
<p>One of the oldest residents of Columbus today, remembers going with her mother into Mr. Irwin's store, as a small child. She remembers how fascinated she was with the "big,</p>
<p>Typewritten text (sheet 2):</p>
<p>black safe and desk" which constituted Irwin's Bank in 1874 and 1875. She remembers the safe and desk as being set off from the store by a railing, or an enclosure of some type.</p>
<p>In 1881 Mr. Irwin built a large store building on the corner of Third and Washington Streets and the bank occupied a smallroom in the corner of the store, with a separate entrance on the main street. In 1891, Mr. Joseph I. Irwin sold his store to two employees and gave all his attention to banking and the many other enterprises in which he was interested.</p>
<p>Stories of Mr. Joseph I. Irwin's "banking ideas" are legion. Mr. Wm. E. Marsh, a veteran newspaper reporter, says in his book about Columbus, that Mr. Irwin had a sign posted by the door of his bank which was typical -- "This is a private Bank and I own it. Joseph I. Irwin". He would withhold a small portion of pay checks and deposit it in a savings account for the customer - even against the customer's will, and later the customer always thanked him for teaching a lesson of thrift. Another time a man came into his office to ask for a loan and he was smoking a cigar. Mr. Irwin told him that since he had money to burn, he had no money to loan him. The incidents are truly characteristic, but more important is the fact that Joseph I. Irwin contributed more to the early building of Columbus than any other person. he loaned money to the men in whom he had confidence, and in so doing, he made it possible for men with ideas about business and manufacturing to put their ideas to work. Many incidents are on record where these people felt they were failing and offered to turn their assets over to the bank, but Mr. Irwin had confidence in them and loaned them more money. Some of these businesses, or their successors are in existence today. Up and down ma n street his bank's money went to work and all about town factories sprang up to give people an opportunity to earn a living. In making money for himself, he always contributed to the well-being of his neighbors. At the same time, his private funds were being used to build roads and electric lines to add to the existing railroads. It is said that heassisted in constructing more than forty miles of turnpike roads in Bartholomew County.</p>
<p>The bank continued to grow and in 1889 William Glanton Irwin, son of Joseph I. Irwin, had finished his education and became cashier of Irwin's Bank. Early in 1900 the building was remodeled and fixtures were purchased from the Indiana National Bank which was then</p>
<p>Typewritten text (sheet 3):</p>
<p>remodeling its building in Indianapolis.</p>
<p>On August 13, 1910, Mr. Joseph I. Irwin died and William Glanton Irwin succeeded him as president of Irwin's Bank. He carried on the traditions and ideas in banking and building businesses in Columbus that his father had before him. However, his business ventures were known far and wide and he becamenationally known as a financier, industrialist, and philanthropist. He was,as his father before him, "Mr.Banker" to the people of Columbus. At his death, December 14, 1943, he was, among many other things, president of the Indiana National Bank of Indianapolis and his many abilities were widely acclaimed in the nation's newspapers.</p>
<p>William G. Irwin, wanting to be relieved of some of his heavy responsibilities, and realizing the seriousness of the economic situation in the country early in 1927 and 1928, suggested a merger between his private bank and the Union Trust Company, a strong bank brough about by several mergers. This move gave great strength to Bartholomew County in the depression of the thirties... A good example of the keen insight and ability to look into the future which seemed to be special gift which this banker father and son used to benefit themselves and others of their community.</p>
<p>The following is a chronological accounting of the mergers which have resulted in the present Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company of Columbus, Indiana:</p>
<p>1871 -- Irwin's Bank, chartered</p>
<p>1903 – People’s Savings and Trust Company was organized with M. O. Reeves of Reeves Pulley Company, as president, and L. K. Ong, Cashier.</p>
<p>1916 -- Farmer's Trust Company was organized with John M. Thompson, a prominent farmer as President, and CharlesM. Setser, Cashier.</p>
<p>1922 -- Peoples Savings and Trust Company and Farmer's Trust Company merged to form UNION TRUST COMPANY, using the building of the Farmer's Trust Company. Mr. M. O. Reeves was the first President and Charles M. Setser, Cashier. On February 2, 1924, they moved into their new building on the Southwest corner of 5th and Washington Streets.</p>
<p>1928 -- On April 1st, Irwin's Bank and Union Trust Company merged to form Irwin- union Trust Company, using the new building of the Union Trust Company.</p>
<p>Typewritten text (sheet 4):</p>
<p>William G. Irwin was President, and the Vice-Presidents were chosen from both banks. They included Hugh Th. Miller, husband of Joseph I. Irwin's grand-daughter, Nettie Sweeney Miller; John W. Suverkrup former cashier of Irwin's Bank; William E. Parker, Frank P. Brockman, and Charles M. Setser was cashier, The Secretary, William H. Scott, was originally with the Peoples Savings and Trust Company, so officers represented members of all the banks in the various mergers.</p>
<p> 1953 – On December 4, 1953, the Irwin Union Trust Company name was changed to Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company and the bank was granted a perpetual charter on that date.</p>
<p>1954 – March 1, 1954, the bank moved into its new and very modern building on the northwest corner of Fifth and Washington Streets. Eero Saarinen, a world-famous architect designed the building .</p>
<p>1956 – The Hope State Bank, Hope, Indiana, was purchased by the Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company on June 50, 1956, and on July 17, 1959, moved into a new building on the public square in Hope.</p>
<p>1960 – A branch was opened in the Eastbrook Shopping Center in Columbus on October 1st, and their new building was opened for business on September 7, 1961.</p>
<p>1961 -- A third branch opened on December 5,1961, in a new building at State and Mapleton in East Columbus.</p>
<p>Since the last merger, the bank has had but four presidents; William G. Irwin, who died December 14, 1943; his nephew, Hugh Th. Miller, who died May 26, 1947; Joseph Irwin Miller, great grandson of Joseph I. Irwin, who became Chairman of the Board of Directors in 1953; and S. Edgar Lauther, who was made president at that time.</p>

<p>Typewritten text (sheet 1):</p>
<p>1850 Joseph I. Irwin opened a mercantile store in downtown Columbus. Residents trusted him and asked to leave their money in his safe, which became known as the safest safe in town. At the time, Irwin had the only safe in town, but never realized he was in the banking business until he was presented with a note that read, "Mr. Irwin, please pay Jim Brown $5.00 from my poke in your safe."</p>
<p>1871 Irwin's Bank was chartered as a private bank.</p>
<p>1877 The November 17 Evening Republican carried the following advertisement:</p>

<p>1910 William G. Irwin became president upon the death of his father, Joseph I. Irwin.</p>
<p>1928 William G. Irwin realized the seriousness of the coming economic situation and arranged a merger of his private bank, Irwin's Bank with the Union Trust, a bank formed by the merger of the Peoples Savings and Trust Company and the Farmers Trust Company.

<p>Typewritten text (sheet 1):</p>
<p>IRWIN UNION BANK AND TRUST COMPANY</p>
<p>Irwin's Bank began business in 1871 as a department of the dry goods store of Joseph I. Irwin in Columbus. Joseph I. Irwin, besides his activity as a merchant, was renowned for real estate development, tin plate manufacturing (at Anderson, Indiana, and Monessen, Pennsylvania), construction and operation of the Indianapolis, Columbus, and Southern Traction Company, and for development of the Union Starch and Refining Company. From 1883, Joseph I. Irwin had active association with his son, William G. Irwin, who assumed the presidency of Irwin's Bank at the time of his father's death in 1910.</p>
<p>During his 33 years as bank president, William G. Irwin became known throughout Indiana and many other states of the nation as a corporation executive and director. He successfully backed C. L. Cummins' development of the diesel engine, the production of which is now the city's largest employer. He, along with his sister, Mrs. Linnie Irwin Sweeney, substantially contributed toward financing the famous Sarrinen-designed First Christian Church. He served several years as a director of the United States Chamber of Commerce. He was a member high in the councils of his political party and was Republican national committee-man from Indiana for some years.</p>
<p>In 1922, People's Savings and Trust Company, whose president was M. O. Reeves, and the Farmers Trust Company, whose president was John M. Thompson, merged to form the Union Trust Company. Mr. Reeves, president of the new bank, was succeeded in 1925 by W. E. Parker.</p>
<p>Typewritten text (sheet 2):</p>
<p>In 1928, Irwin's Bank and Union Trust Company decided to merge their resources to form Irwin-Union Trust Company. The personnel of both banks was retained in the merger that named William G. Irwin president. W. E. Parker was made a director, as were: A. W. Cox, W. H. Scott, H. J. McGinnis, H. L. Rost, C. M. Setser, J. V. Hilger, H. B. Blessing, F. P. Brockman, F. C. Tellman, C. H. Weigand, William Armuth, A. M. Kirkpatrick, J. H. Schaefer, F. H. Suhre, G. L. Reeves, Ernest D. Snider, W. G. Irwin, Meredith Lienberger, Hugh Th. Miller, and J. W. Suverkrup.</p>
<p>Thus ended the 57 year history of Irwin's Bank as a private bank in Columbus. William G. Irwin continued as president until his death in 1943. At that time he was also president of the Indiana National Bank of Indianapolis.</p>
<p>Hugh Th. Miller had joined the bank in 1899 and succeeded his uncle, William G. Irwin as president in 1943. He served as president in until his death in 1947. Upon the passing of Hugh Th. Miller, the board of directors named his son, J. Irwin Miller as the new president.</p>
<p>In December, 1953, Irwin Miller assumed the newly created office of chairman of the board and S. Edgar Lauther, who had joined the bank as a vice president in 1946, became president. This delegation of authority allowed Mr. Miller to focus greater attention on the corporate management of Cummins Engine Company of which he is chairman, and to state and national commitments. He presently serves on the Board of Directors of American Telephone and Telegraph and The Chemical Bank of New York. He is also a Trustee of Yale University, Butler University, The Ford Foundation, and the Museum of Modern Art of New York. He has served as president of the National Council of Churches. He has</p>
<p>Typewritten text (sheet 3):</p>
<p>also served on five Presidential commissions. Mr. Miller's commitment to economic progress and the resolution of urban problems is recognized nationally.</p>
<p>His appreciation for outstanding architecture has long been apparent. In the early 1950s, Mr. Miller, realizing the need for larger facilities for the bank, approached Eero Saarinen, an internationally-known architect and long-time friend. Mr. Saarinen designed the building at the corner of Fifth and Washington Streets which has served as the bank's main office since 1955. To meet the needs of the increasing economic growth of Bartholomew County, Irwin Union acquired the Hope State Bank in 1956 as its first branch office. Three other branches have since been built with a sixth permanent office at Columbus Center scheduled to open in the summer of 1970. Plans are also being drawn for an addition to the downtown office. In November of 1964, S. Edgar Lauther left the bank and has subsequently been named chairman of the board of American Fletcher National Bank of Indianapolis. Upon his resignation, Paul N. Dinkins succeeded to the presidency, and On April 15, 1969, witnessed Irwin Union's achievement of attaining $100 million in total assets. The present directors include: J. Irwin Miller, Chairman, Eugene I. Anderson, Paul N. Dinkins, George Doup, Edward E. Edwards, Lowell E. Engelking, Frank C. Forster, Clarence O. Hamilton, Alvin L. Kuehn, William R. Laws, Jr., Paul H.
