Description

Article (Lincoln Star, 1930-01-07) states that a receiver (Clarence Bliss) was appointed for Farmers State Bank of Hallam which had been closed. OCR errors present (e.g., 'Biddlecom' likely refers to a state banking official or commissioner who closed the bank). No mention of a depositor run prior to suspension in the article, only closure and receiver appointment, so classified as suspension leading to closure (receivership).
