CANADY died at his home in Kinston on Saturday morning, September 30, 1905. He was a large planter, the proprietor of large mercantile interests, the owner of important properties, employed in the tobacco industries of this section, and interested in other industries of this city and community; he had been mayor of Kinston, several times chairman of the board of commissioners of Lenoir county, had held other positions of trust and confidence, and was at the time of his death vice president of this bank. Having been in active touch with the business life of this section for more than a quarter of a century, he has left his impress upon its industries and its institutions and has largely contributed to the growth of this city and to the improvement and upbuilding of this and the adjoining counties, and his passing away has brought regret and sorrow throughout the large territory in which his name and work are so familiar and well-known. Now, be it Resolved. By the board of directors of the Citizens' Bank: First: That the death of B.W. CANADY, vice president of the bank, has brought to each of his associates on the board a sense of personal sorrow and loss which will also be shared by every stockholder of this institution. Second: That want of his counsel and co-operation will be felt, but that his aid and help during the infancy of the bank until failing health disabled him, will always be a grateful remembrance. Third: That these resolutions be spread upon the records of the bank and that a copy be transmitted by the cashier to his family with the assurance of the sincere sympathy of the individual members of this board, and that a copy be also furnished the Kinston Free Press with the request that the same be given publication.
