[Letter from William L. Gatz to Daniel W. Kempner, November 9, 1951]

Letter from W. L. Gatz to Daniel W. Kempner disagreeing with Mr. Kempner's suggestion to simply adjourn the New First National Bank meeting as it would hurt the banks reputation in the small town to delay. Mr. Gatz instead asks Mr. Kempner to reconsider which bank shareholders meeting he will attend or to send Mr. Blackshear in his stead so the meeting reaches quorum.

[Letter from Daniel W. Kempner to William L. Gatz, November 6, 1951]

Letter from Daniel W. Kempner to W. L. Gatz discussing being unable to attend a meeting because all the stockholders' meetings for national banks are being held on the same day and he has a prior commitment to the meeting for the United States National Bank in Galveston. Mr. Kempner also informs Mr. Gatz of his other obligations throughout January to corporations in Galveston and decided that the meeting he is missing will just have to be adjourned as he is a majority stockholder and has to be in attendance for there to be a quorum.
