Description

Multiple contemporary newspaper lists (Nov–Dec 1854 through early 1855) list the Bank of Zanesville as closing or closing and include it among broken/discredited banks. No article describes a depositor run; the coverage is a compiled list indicating the bank is closing/failed. I infer a suspension/closure (permanent) rather than a run-driven event.
