Description

Article (Great Falls Tribune, 1928-11-21) reports H. G. Lescher as receiver of the Miners State Bank of Sand Coulee and mentions a receivership suit. The article does not explicitly describe a prior run or a formal suspension, but the presence of an appointed receiver implies the bank closed and entered receivership. I therefore classify this as suspension_closure (closure with receiver).
