Description

Article (The Bismarck Tribune, 1922-01-07) reports Charles F. Kellogg was named receiver for a district including the Farmers and Merchants Bank of Robinson. The piece names a receiver (indicating failure/closure); no run is mentioned. I classify this as suspension leading to closure (receivership). 'State' chosen as bank type as small-town commercial banks were typically state-chartered; no explicit 'State' in the name so some uncertainty exists.
