The People State Bank Opens In New Wauseon Building
The beautiful new banking room in Fulton county is open for inspection Saturday evening. The old Hager House stood on the site, a landmark of Wauseon’s pioneer spirit. Partners including Chas. C. Greenleaf and Eager built the venture for their own business, later transforming it into a major banking institution with a marble wainscoted interior. The bank’s growth is highlighted by the completed artful building, now a hallmark of town beauty and enterprise. The institution began small and grew into a successful local bank.
