1973 Feb 13, The First National Bank of Morris merges with Wilber National Bank

The statement of condition of the First National Bank of Morris in 1972 stated that the bank was in its "seventy-ninth year." In 1973 the merger was announced bringing the run of the Morris bank up to 80 years. This was a larger newspaper ad running 8.5 x 14 inches. Clipping and Statement of Condition supplied by Mary Valentine. Click Read More below to see the 1972 statement of condition. They warn that it is only a partial list -- but they leave off "Business Loans," as a category. Seems like they would have wanted to push that.

The Statement of Condition was printed on card stock and the unfolded dimensions are 10 5/8 x 6 3/4 inches.
