The work of Martins Bank trustee Department is very much “behind the scenes”, until this eye-catching advertisement comes along in 1966.

 

On more than one occasion we have been asked to feature Trustee Department as part of the Online Archive.  As ever, we are pleased to oblige only to discover that the workings of the various Trustee Departments up and down the land is not covered in any greatdetail in Martins Bank Magazine. 

 

As a belated gesture a small feature is started in 1968 : “Trust Company News”, but this consists mainly of write-ups of sports and other events involving Trust Company staff.    The Trustee and Investment Departments, which become Martins Bank Trust Company also gives Barclays its biggest prize – from which the rewards are still felt today – in the form of Martins Unicorn Unit Trusts.  Some say that this alone is worth taking over Martins for.

Cricket and netball with the solicitors

 

A team drawn from the Company's North Eastern offices met one from the staff of Messrs Dickinson, Miller & Turnbull, the Newcastle solicitors.

In the twenty overs to which each team was limited the solicitors ac­cumulated 52 runs for eight wickets. W. Barren, bowling into a stiff breeze, was in devastating form, taking seven wickets for 15 runs and clean bowling five of his victims.

B. O'Hara and M. F. Whittaker made a big, if leisurely, stand for the Company scoring 25 and 20 runs respectively. With one over to spare the winning score was reached for the loss of seven wickets.

Following the Company's success at cricket the ladies from the Newcastle offices produced a netball team to challenge a ladies' team from Messrs Dickinson, Miller & Turnbull.

On this occasion the ladies were unable to repeat their colleagues' success, losing 1—4.

 

Cricket at Liverpool

 

At the L.C.P.T.'s ground, Finch Lane, Liverpool, teams from the Company's Liverpool offices and from the staff of Liverpool Overseas branch met on July 17 and again on July 23.

In the first match notable per­formances from J. R. Lythgoe (37) and D. Massey (32) took the Com­pany's innings to 96 for 5 in the allotted twenty overs. Overseas re­plied with 84 for 5.

In the second game the Company's batsmen were sadly out of form, achieving a meagre 63 all out. The Overseas reply, in which J. H. Murray distinguished himself, was 65 for 7 in nineteen overs.
