Century Memorial
Percy R. Pyne was one of the old-time financiers of New York. The success of the many great enterprises in which he was a guiding spirit was largely due to his sagacity, energy and integrity; and the charitable and educational works which he supported and promoted, bear witness to his generous impulses and thoughtful consideration for his fellowmen.
