Description

All articles describe the Grocers' Bank in receivership (S. V. White, Receiver) with court orders, asset sales, and dividend payments in mid-1884. There is no mention of a depositor run in the provided items. The bank was in receivership (closure) rather than a temporary suspension and later reopening. I infer 'state' bank from the name (no 'National' or 'Trust' present).
