      Former Mintlaw Bank Agent
      The Late Mr W. Cardno
      Mr William Cardno, 2 Longside Road, Mintlaw, who died in Woodend Hospital, Aberdeen, on Thursday night, was a bank agent in Mintlaw for about forty-five years.
      He was 81 years of age.
      Mr Cardno began his banking career in Aberdeen with the old Town and County Bank, now amalgamated with the North of Scotland Bank, and after a period in the head office in Aberdeen he was appointed agent at the Mintlaw branch.
      On retiring about twelve years ago, Mr Cardno built a house at Mintlaw, and he bought a small part of the woods in the vicinity. During his retirement he had as his hobby the beautifying of the wood, and he spent a great deal of time in that work.
      Mr Cardno was a Justice of the Peace, and secretary for the Mintlaw Hall.
      His wife died some years ago, and he is survived by one son, who is postmaster at Mintlaw, and a daughter.
