TOM RANDOLPH AN EMINENT FINANCIER.
Introductory to a brief sketch of one of America's most successful financiers a brief statement is given of the father:
Capt. J. L. Randolph bas born and reared in Wilson County, Tenn. At nineteen years of age, in 1849, he crossed the plains and Rockies, in company with Col. Paul Anderson and others from Lebanon, Tenn., to California. He emigrated to Sherman, Tex., in 1859, and commanded the Ninth Texas Partisan Rangers during the war. At one time he had command of the Regiment of Chickasaw Indians (Confederate soldiers) and all Seminole Confederate Indian soldiers. Capt. Randolph stands behind his only child, Tom, as Director in the Merchants' and Planters' National Bank, and occupies the same position in the Commonwealth Trust Company, in St. Louis. Their relations socially and in business have ever been remarkably close and often cause very complimentary comments.
Tom Randolph was born in Rome, Smith County, Tenn. He emigrated to Sherman, Tex., with his parents when a small boy, and was educated principally in Capt. J. H.

He soon became paying teller, and was cashier at nineteen years of age. At the death of Judge C. C. Binkley, the founder and President of the bank, in 1886, he was made President. The original capital was $150,000. At the death of Judge Binkley it had been increased to $600,000. The bank has always flourished and paid good dividends, and stands high in financial circles. On February 8, 1903, Mr. Randolph accepted the presidency of the Commonwealth Trust Company, of St. Louis. At that date the deposits of the company were $1,4931698.17: o" February 8, 1904 (twelve months later) , the deposits had increased to $8,854,385 89 Within that time the Commonwealth had absorbed the Colonial, Hamilton, and Germania Trust Companies. Randoph still remains President of the Merchants' and Planters' National Bank.
Campbell's Illustrated Journal says of Tom Randolph: "He is a man of broad and liberal spirit, and is at all times ready and willing to aid his fellows. Quick to recognize a good investment, Mr. Randolph has acquired large interests in Texas lands and in several banks in the Indian Terri
