"The business of the Ithaca Trust Company has long since outgrown the limited accommodations afforded by its quarters in the Savings Bank, and it is announced that the flourishing financial institution has purchased the W. N. Noble building adjoining the Savings bank. The building is to be taken down and replaced by a larger one to suit the needs of the Trust Company. Negotiations are pending with Col. C. H. Blair for the purchase of the lot south of the Noble building, and if it is secured by the Trust Company the new building will cover both lots...."
