HISTORIC MEDALLIONS
The Greenville Advocate of
February 22 contains
an extended article by Mr. George A.
Katzenberger an-
nouncing the moving of the Second
National Bank of
Greenville to its new building on the
24th of that month.
The new home of the bank has
appropriate medallions,
prints of which were distributed on
post cards. These
are described in the article as
follows:
Facing the bank from the Fourth Street
side the observer
will note two large bronze oval
medallions of Generals St. Clair
and Greene. The former was the first
American officer passing
through the present site of Greenville
with an army, and the
latter was the particular friend of
General Wayne, who had
served with General Greene in the
southern campaign in the
Revolutionary war, and in honor of whom
Wayne caused the
first fort erected here to be known as
Fort Greenville. The two
medallions to be seen from the Broadway
side are those of
Little Turtle, the celebrated Miami
chieftain, who defeated
General St. Clair's army at what was
afterwards known as
Fort Recovery, and who participated in
the Treaty of Green-
ville, the other medallion being that of
"Mad Anthony Wayne"
whose history is known to every citizen
of Greenville. These
medallions, forty inches high, were
designed in plaster, by
sculptor Bruce Haswell, of Cincinnati,
from engravings in the
collection of George A. Katzenberger,
and were executed in
bronze by Gorham and Company of New York
City, and are in
recognition of the historical importance
of Greenville.
