Description

Article (The Chester Reporter, 1927-04-07) references a receiver for the Chester Bank and a sheriff's sale dated April 2, 1927, indicating the bank was in receivership and assets were being sold. No run or prior suspension is described in the clipping; I classify this as a suspension leading to closure/receivership.
