Description

Articles (Oct–Nov 1913 notices) show the Thames Loan and Trust Co. is in the hands of a court-appointed receiver (Chas/Charles F. Thayer). No article describes a depositor run; the company is in receivership and later (Oct 1914) the receiver is authorized to pay a dividend — indicating permanent closure and winding up under court supervision. I therefore classify this as a suspension (closure) with receivership by court action. Dates taken from publication notices and courtroom orders.
