In The Good Old Pickwickian Days - - when times were slow and business methods were easy-going - - - - it was thought quite all right to name an elderly and learned business friend as one’s executor and trustee. But - - man’s life being limited - - such executors and trustees often fail to live long enougi to complete their duties. There’s a real thought for you in that - - a good reason for naming us as your executor a:id trustee. This company has permanent life. It will always be able lo serve.
