Her newphew, Lisle Winter, also addressed the Council. The Councilmen decided to take a look at the structure before proceeding further. Reporting concerning the transfer of funds to the First National Bank and the American Trust Company, the Treasurer explained that the necessary collateral to protect these deposits had been put up by the respective banks in the custody of the Crocker First National Bank of San Francisco as trustee, and he desired the formal expression of approval of this arrangement by the Council. Accordingly, on motion of Councilman McCarthy, seconded by Councilman Anderson, the Treasurer was told that it would be satisfactory to the Council if collateral were received from the two banks mentioned and placed in the custody of the Crocker First National Bank with proper receipts showing such bonds placed with the said trustee by the City Treasurer and subject to his order.
