Grant. When John Welsh, the "Father of the Bank," died in 1854, his place at the board had been taken by his sons, who filled it alternately, Samuel Welsh and John Welsh. The latter, who was one of the most distinguished citizens of Phila- delphia, foremost in its service in many capacities, the president of the Board of Trade, the head of the Centennial Board of Finance, and American Minister to England, died April 10, 1886. He had been a director at various periods since May, 1857, and the mi...nute of the board on April 12th records his excellent service during the very serious panics of 1857 and 1873, and the trying times of the war of the Rebellion. To the statement of his valuable work for the Bank, the minute adds this deserved personal tribute: "Those of us who have been associated with Mr. Welsh here, will never forget his genial, attractive and most affectionate address and com- panionship. His whole life also was well balanced and sub- stantial; a beautiful illustration of all that is noble and Chris- tian in human character.
