H. C. McLEOD, PROMINENT CANA
DIAN FINANCIER, SEIZED
WITH HEART ATTACK
Mrs. John Preston, well known
Seward resident, received in the last
mail from the States news of the
death of a brother-in-law, H. C. Mc
Leod, former general manager of the
Bank of Nova Scotia and a financier
of international repute, who died at
his winter home in Camden, South
Carolina. He was seized with an at
tack of heart trouble and died shortly
afterwards. Mr. McLeod was in his
75th year.
1 Economist, banker, yachtsman and
amateur yacht designer, Mr. McLeod
was a Canadian who more than once
during his career stepped into nation
al prominence. He was a fearless
fighter, once he was convinced of the
rightness of any cause, and he op
osed for many years the formation of
the Canadian Banker’s Association as
being contrary to the best interests
of the public. Long before the sys
tem of government inspection of
banks was established, Mr. McLeod
■vya/s the leading advocate of this re
form.
Born and brought up in New Lon
don, Prince Edward Island, Mr. Mc
Leod, the son of a Scottish sea cap
tain, was by birth and environment
linked with the sea. In later years
he showed his love of the water by
taking part in various yachting
events, notably the New York-Ber
muda race of 1909, in which he navi
gated the “Amorita” to victory and
established a new record for the
course.
Mr. McLeod was educated in the
local schools of New London and in
his 19th year went to Charlottetown,
where, for four years, he read law.
Later he joined the staff of the Mer
chants Bank in Prince Edward Is
land and in 1875 became manager of
its Georgetown branch. In 1SS2 he
left that position to enter the service
of the Bank of Nova Scotia as mana
ger of its Amherst branch. Later he
became manager of the Winnipeg
branch and from there went to Min
neapolis and Chicago where he estab
lished agencies. He retired in 1910.
FEWER BANK LOOTINGS
CREDITED TO RANGERS
ST. PAUL, Feb. 1. (JP)—Citizen’s
armed and organized into county
ranger units in Minnesota are cred
ited with aiding materially in the re
ducing to one the number of bank
robberies in this state in 1926.
Fred P. Fellows! of Minneapolis,
secretary of the Minnesota Bankers
association, in asserting the effect
iveness of the rangers, points out
that in 1925 there were ten bank rob
beries, 16 in 1921 and 20 in 1923.
The bankers association’s protect
ive department a year ago organized
volunteer groups of citizens in each
county, known as county rangers. Im
mediately upon receipt of word of a
bank robbery, the ranger units in
surrounding counties set a patrol on
all highways and all automobiles are
stopped for investigation.
Americans in Nicaragua are prob
ably better protected than those in
Herrin.
