Cody Trust company is the exclusive loan correspondent in Chicago of State Mutual Life Insurance company of Worchester, Mass.; Home Life Insur- ance company of New York; and Re- gister Life Insurance company of Dav- enport, Iowa. It is one of the real estate loan correspondents in Chicago for the state of Illinois for the Life Insurance com- pany of Virginia, Richmond, Va., and has direct connections with three other large insurance companies, enabling it to handle mortgages of any size. The mortgage business of Cody Trust company, originated in 1848 by Judge Hiram H. Cody, was later de- veloped by the law firm of Gary, Cody & Gary. This firm consisted of Judge Elbert H. Gary, now and for many years chairman and chief executive officer of the United States Steel cor- poration; Judge Hiram H. Cody, under whom Judge Gary had studied law, and Noah E. Gary, Judge Gary's brother. Its offices were in the Reaper block, still standing at the northeast corner of Clark and Washington streets, Chi- cago. In January, 1910, Arthur B. Cody, then of the law firm of Cody and Eaton (the late Marquis Eaton) was appointed mortgage loan correspond- ent of the State Mutual Assurance company of Worcester, Mass, of which the firm of Gary, Cody and Gary was appointed Chicago counsel in 1879. In February, 1912, Arthur B. Cody took into partnership his son, Hiram S. Cody, and continued the general mortgage loan business under the name of Arthur B. Cody and Son. On March 1, 1919, the business of Arthur B. Cody & Son was consolidat- ed with Chicago Trust company--Arth- ur B. Cody and Hiram S. Cody being made managers of the Real Estate Loan department of the bank, later becoming vice presidents. Arthur B. Cody was also elected a member of the board of directors of the bank. The division of the mortgage loan business, between Chicago Trust com- pany and Cody Trust company, as ar- ranged two years in advance, takes place under a complete and friendly understanding between the two insti- tutions. The directors of Cody Trust com- pany are--Senator William Alden Smith, formerly United States Senator from Michigan, Chairman of the Board of the Grand Rapids Savings bank, Grand Rapids, Mich., and chairman of the Board of the Goodrich Transit company; Robert W.
