The Wilkesboro Building & Loan Association met Monday with a large portion of the stockholders present. The organization had a splendid year—6 percent dividend was declared.
The following directors and officers were elected: W.A. Stroud, W.H. Foster, H.A. Cranor, C.F. Morrison, R.B. Pharr, F.B. Hendren, W.E. Linney, J.R. Rausseau, J.T. Prevette, J.H. Johnson and J.J. Hayes.
Officers are J.J. Hayes, president; F.B. Hendren, vice-president; W.A. Stroud, secretary; J.A. Rousseau, attorney. The loan committee is C.F. Morrison, J.H. Johnson, H.A. Cranor, W.F. Miller and J.J. Haynes.
The third series of building and loan was opened and something like 13,000 was subscribed or promised before meeting adjourned. Other stock will be solicited.
The secretary’s report showed that $33,000 had been loaned for building purposes.
From the front page of the North Wilkesboro Hustler, January 14, 1925. The article had J.R. Rausseau elected a director and J.R. Rousseau elected an officer. This is most likely the same individual and the newspaper has misspelled his last name in one place.
