Description

The article (The Sidney Herald, 1930-05-01) refers to a receiver (Wright, Receiver) for The National Bank, Sidney and a sheriff's sale of property tied to litigation. This indicates the bank was in receivership/closed by authorities rather than merely experiencing a depositor run. There is no explicit mention of a depositor run or reopening. Date references in the legal notices include April 15, 1930 (filing/dating of notices), so I use that as the approximate date for the receivership-related proceedings. OCR is poor in parts but the phrase 'WRIGHT, Receiver The National Bank Sidney' is clear and supports receivership.
