Night Watchmen

Banks in the early days before burglar alarms were put into operation maintained night watchmen, this picture being the one operated by Croghan Bank and Savings Company. The early publication which contained the picture said: "In addition to the regular outside night patrols the bank had two well-armed men sleeping in the building".

Croghan Bank and Savings Company provided a place for youngsters to learn about banking. It was called "the most precious spot in the bank," because it provided children with their first lesson in business, about how to be thrifty and industrious, and "growing up to be manly men and womanly women".
