Stanley Sackett.—A man of pronounced business acumen and tact, and of exceptional financial ability, Stanley Sackett is one of the leading bankers of Van Buren county, being proprietor of the Bank of Gobleville, a well-known and substantial banking institution. He is an excellent representative of the native-born citizens of his community, his birth having occurred on a farm in Pine Grove township. His father, Frederick P. Sackett, and his grandfather, Dr. Joel B. Sackett, were both born in Niagara county, New York, while his great-grandfather, Charles Sackett, was a native of New England, and was of Welsh ancestry.
...
Having completed his studies in the rural schools of his native district, Stanley Sackett, whose home was four miles from the village of Gobleville, subsequently attended the graded schools of that village, for some time gladly trudging back and forth night and morning in his efforts to obtain a good education, although during the last few months of his attendance he lived with Dr. Carpenter, earning his board as hostler and general chore boy. Ere he had finished school he accepted a position in the Gobleville Exchange Bank, of Gobleville, of which Mr. S. B. Munroe was the proprietor, his first compensation having been but one dollar a week. He lived with his parents during two years of the time, walking to and fro night and morning. Devoting all of his energies to his new work, Mr. Sackett soon proved his worth and ability, and was promoted according to his efficiency until made manager of the institution. In 1901, leaving Gilbert Mitchell in charge of the Gobleville Bank, he went to Bloomingdale to establish, for Mr. Munroe, a private bank, and remained there a year. Returning then to Gobleville, Mr. Sackett, in company with Mr. Mitchell, bought the Gobleville Bank. Mr. Mitchell died a year later, and Mr. Sackett operated the institution, with the Mitchell estate as a partner, for three years when he bought out the Mitchell heirs and has since continued as sole proprietor of the institution, which is one of the safest and best in the county. In addition to banking Mr. Sackett carries on a general insurance and real estate business, in each line being especially successful.
Mr. Sackett married, in 1904, Lena Frank Crosby, who was born in Gobleville, a daughter of William S. and Ella (Pike) Crosby, and they have one child, Elaine Sackett. Mr. Sackett is an active member of the Michigan State Bankers' Association and of the American Bankers' Association. Fraternally he belongs to Gobleville Lodge, No. 393, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and to the Encampment; he is also a member of Hudson Lodge, No. 325, Ancient Free and Accepted Order of Masons; of Paw Paw Chapter, No. 34, Royal Arch Masons; of Lawrence Council, No. 43, Royal and Select Masters; of Peninsula Commandery, No. 8, Knights Templar; and both he and his wife are members of Lily Chapter, No. 230, Order of the Eastern Star.

Sherman Stanley Sackett
He was the fourth child of Frederick Plummer Sackett and his wife, Susan Earl Sackett. He was born April 11, 1875. He was raised on the family farm and walked four miles to and from High School. Just before he graduated he got a job at the Goblesville Exchange Bank when he was eighteen years old. After several years of faithful work he became manager and owner. In the spring of 1913, the bank closed. From that time on he worked in real estate and was a salesman. In the early nineteen thirties he owned and managed a grocery store on East Main Street in Kalamazoo.
When young he was considered to be a good violin player. He played for dances when so small that, when sitting on a dining room chair, his feet would not touch the floor. He married, first, Lena Crosby in March, 1904, to which marriage three children were born. His second marriage was to Marvel Hunt Budrow on September 8, 1917, and there were two children born to this marriage. He died on April 29, 1943, and was buried at Robinson Cemetery, Gobles, Michigan.

Gobleville Private Bank Closes Doors
Goblevillle, Mich., Mar. 8—Regarded as one of the strongest banks in Van Buren county, the Gobleville Exchange bank, operated by Stanley Sackett, reputed to be one of the wealthiest men in this part of the state, closed its doors yesterday.
The bank, which has been a private institution, carries deposits from all parts of the county, and practically every business man in Gobleville was a depositor.
Sackett left town Thursday afternoon but returned here yesterday afternoon with Judge A. J. Mills of Kalamazoo. When he stepped off the train he was met by a crowd of depositors who demanded to know why the bank had been closed.
Judge Mills mounted a platform and, in a brief address, stated he was sure his client had enough assets left in the bank to pay every depositor in full, and that the bank had been closed only because of anxiety and worry on the part of his client.
"I am sure the bank will be opening in a short time as a state bank," the judge told the depositors. The crowd demanded the bank be opened and an immediate investigation be made of the books. Finally it was decided to appoint a committee to do this.
Sackett, Judge Mills and the committee went to the bank late in the afternoon and were still there last night.
Sackett 20 years ago was a farmer boy. He suddenly decided to start a bank. His institution seemed to be a success instantly and for six years it has been one of the biggest banking institutions in the county.

Gobleville Bank Will Be Opened Again
Kalamazoo, Mar. 10—The Gobleville Exchange bank at Gobleville, which closed its doors Friday morning, will be reorganized within the next week and the institution will come under the control of the state, according to the statement of Judge Alfred J. Mills of this city, attorney for Stanley Sackett, president of the bank, whiich he made at Gobleville to depositors.
Sackett and a committee of depositors composed of Dr. C. L. Bennett, Fred Stark, L. O. Graham and Wm. Miller visited the building and made an inspection of the records. Up to the present time nothing which would implicate Sackett in any way has been discovered.
Judge Mills talked freely. He said: "There is absolutely nothing wrong with the bank and depositors will receive every cent which they intrusted to the care of my client. Overconfidence on the part of the president and the fact that a goodly amount of the money is tied up in real estate caused the closing."
The Exchange bank at Gobleville is the only institution of its kind in the village and every business man in the place is a depositor.
Sackett is an old resident of Gobleville and has had charge of the bank for twenty years. He is considered absolutely reliable by the citizens.

Gobleville Bank To Pay All Depositors In Full
Kalamazoo, March 11.—After spending most of Monday investigating the assets of the Gobleville Exchange bank, which closed its doors last week, the committee appointed by the depositors and Stanley Sackett stated that they believed that the bank would be able to pay off all of the depositors in full. There are many of the depositors who do not believe that the bank will be able to pay back in full, but Sackett declares that he has enough assets to insure a complete settlement.

Bank Is Closed
Angry Depositors Meet President Sackett at Train and Demand Reason.
Gobleville, March 8.—The Gobleville Exchange bank operated by Stanley Sackett, regarded as one of the wealthiest men in Van Buren county, has closed its doors and there is great excitement among the depositors throughout this section.
The bank, which has been a private institution, carried deposits from all parts of the county and practically every business man in this village was a depositor.
Sackett lef town before the doors were closed but returned later with his attorney, Judge A. J. Mills of Kalamazoo. A crowd of angry people met him at the train and demanded to know why business had been suspended.
Judge Mills mounted a platform and in a brief address stated that he felt sure that his client had enough money to pay all depositors in full, and that bank had been closed only because of anxiety and worry on the part of Mr. Sackett.
Depositors demanded that a committee be appointed to go over the books of the institution. This was finally agreed to.
Sackett twenty years ago was a farmer boy. He suddenly decided to start a bank. His institution was a success instantly and for six years he has been prosperous.

Gobleville Now Assured of New Bank
Gobleville, Mich., April 4.—As a result of the closing of the private bank conducted by Stanley Sackett some time ago, Gobleville will soon have a state bank. Citizens of that place have subscribed for $25,000 worth of stock and the necessary papers of incorporation will be returned from Lansing within a short time and the new banking institution wiill open its doors for business.
Yesterday afternoon Judge A. W. Mills, counsel for Sackett, turned over all the bank securities to the special committee of depositors appointed at the time the bank closed its doors and within a short time settlement will be made with all, it is announced.
The special committee believe that if property owned by Sackett can be converted into cash at once at the present market value that none of the depositors of the old bank will be obliged to assume a loss. Mr. Sackett will have no connection in any way with the new state bank just organized, it is said.
