Description

Multiple newspaper items (dated Mar 1–2, 1895) report the Holdrege National Bank failed to open and that the Comptroller of the Currency would take charge (a government seizure/suspension). Later (Aug 21, 1897) a receiver is selling the bank's assets, indicating it did not resume normal operations and entered receivership/closure. OCR in some clippings spells the town/bank as 'Holdredge'—corrected to Holdrege here.
