                            M. C. GETCHELL

     M. C. GETCHELL, cashier of the Superior Savings Bank at Hancock,
  Houghton County, Michigan, and a well known financier of that county,
  was born at Hancock, and is a son of the late A. M. GETCHELL, who
  located in Hancock in 1860, and was connected with the foundry which
  was the beginning of the present Portage Lake Foundry Company.  A. M.
  GETCHELL was born at Machias, Maine, and died at Hancock in 1889, 
  aged 55 years.  His widow still survives, and makes her home at Han-
  cock.
  
    M. C. GETCHELL was reared at Hancock and attended the local schools.
  He occupied a number of important positions prior to taking up his
  present one, and is secretary and treasurer of the Superior Trust
  Company, being also associated with other enterprises.  He has been
  cashier of the Superior Savings Bank ever since its organization in
  1890, and by his careful and conservative course and his obliging
  manner has made many friends in the business world.
  
    In politics Mr. GETCHELL votes the Republican ticket, but takes no
  very lively interest in local management.  His fraternal connections
  include the Masons and the Elks.
