Book Description
Excerpt from One Hundred Years of Savings Bank Service: A Brief Account of the Origin, Growth and Present Condition of the Provident Institution for Savings in the Town of Boston The Provident Institution for Savings in the Town of Boston is one hundred years old. It bears the distinction of being the first savings bank to be incorporated in the United States, and the second in the country to be established. It was incorporated December 13, 1816, and began business February 19, 1817, in the old courthouse on Court Street, which was erected in 1770 and torn down in 1831. To James Savage, lawyer, scholar, and philanthropist, more than to any other person, the Institution owes its existence. He first became interested in the project of establishing a savings bank while visiting in Gardiner, Maine. In a letter to Mrs. Robert Hallowell Gardiner, dated November 6, 1816, he says: - "I saw over the fireplace at Gardiner a plan on a single sheet of paper of the Institution in England (London) for the Savings Banks.... Though I did not half read, I was much occupied with the subject on my way up, and find it a very desirable project to introduce here." Mr. Savage interested a number of prominent gentlemen in the project, and the result was the founding of the Provident Institution for Savings in the Town of Boston. He fought a brave battle against the apathy, distrust, and even the ridicule with which many prominent men of his day met the project, and finally launched the Institution safely upon its successful career.
