The office will be lo- cated in temporary quarters in the old Central Hotel, a build- ing that has been standing since before British Mortgage was chartered over 85 years ago. Central Hotel, the last of Exeter's seven hotels, was built between 1805 and 1870 by John McDonell, son of the first At- torney General of Upper Can- ada. The hotel changed hands numerous times over the years, though in 1888 it was sold to W. T. Atpheson and again in 1946 was returned to the Atche- son family from whom British Mortgage recently made the purchase. The new British Mortgage in Exeter—opening Friday, June 14, at 9:30 a.m.—will offer a wide range of trust and finan- cial services to the people, com- panies and organizations in the Exeter area. Special gifts will be given to deppsitors. „and investors to mark the opening of the new branch. Each depositor open- ing a savings account of $25 or more will receive a beautiful clear Lucite silver dollar paper- weight. Each investor in a guar- anteed certificate will receive a paperweight, plus a $5.00 gift certificate good at any Exeter retail store. There will be at- tractive souvenirs and refresh- ments. Charles V. Barrett, a native of Parkhill, will be manager of the British Mortgage Exeter Branch. Names of other staff members have not been releas- ed as yet but British Mortgage hopes to recruit local person- nel. W. H.

Your friends here assembled are happy to wish you continuing health for fifty years more; we brought some reminders to add to your pleasures, kindly ac- cept them, with good wishes galore.
