Description

State Bank Inspector Austin closed (suspended) the Citizens' Bank on about April 1-2, 1897 because owing to the hard times it is impossible to collect. A receiver (I. C. Dempsey) was appointed later in April (reported Apr 19 and Apr 21), indicating the bank entered receivership/closure rather than a simple temporary run-only event. No run or depositor panic is described in the items.
