Mr. Parker was engaged in farming in Elba until 1898 when he became president of the First National bank succeeding L. C. McIntyre deceased. Mr. Parker consented to accept the position after much hesitation and it was only the insistence of his friends on the board of directors of the bank which induced him to forego a feeling on his own part that his business experience had not been sufficient to qualify him as a banker. That the choice of the directors was a wise one has been evidenced by the constantly increasing success and strength of the bank under Mr. Parker's administration and the confidence universally felt in it as a financial institution. In recognition of Mr. Parker's 25th anniversary as president of the bank the board of directors met on April 28 1923 and the following congratulatory statement was issued in view of Mr. Parker's success as head of the institution and of the fact that he had held the position much longer than any of his predecessors in the office: At the first meeting of the board of directors of the bank held on March 21 1864 Rueben H. Farnham was elected president and continued as such until resignation on June 29 1865. He was succeeded by Tracy Pardee who served until his death on July 30 1883. L. C. McIntyre former cashier of the bank was then elected president in which office he remained until his death early in the year 1808. Mr. Parker was made president in April 21 1808 At the time of Mr. Parker's election the bank was paying no dividends to its stockholders and its deposits were but a small fraction of what they are today. During his presidency its assets have increased and what is more important the directors have been able to add to its fund of surplus and undivided profits for the protection of it depositors and for the benefit of the stockholders the sum of $200 0 or double the amount originally paid in upon its stock while its reputation as a conservative banking institution. The directors feel that a permanent record of these outstanding facts of Mr. Parker's administration should be made here and express the hope that he may be spared for years to come with the same good health which he now enjoys in the 89th year of his age." Elected a Director in 1883. Mr. Parker was elected a director of the First National bank on April 2, 1883.
