Archivist’s Notes
Son of Adrian Iselin
Century Memorial
Adrian Iselin, who had reached the advanced age of eighty-eight and had been a Centurion during forty-two years, spent all his active business life in Wall Street, where for fifty years he was the head of the private banking firm which his father [Adrian Iselin] founded. Iselin was a cultured gentleman of ability and charm; in Wall Street he was distinguished for his uncompromising integrity. But his personal modesty was such that he scrupulously shunned every kind of publicity.
