Description

Article (Tulsa Daily World, 1911-04-28) reports a suit against the bank commissioner as receiver of the Columbia Bank and Trust Company, indicating the bank was in receivership (i.e., closed and in process of liquidation). No article text describes an antecedent depositor run, so I classify this as a suspension leading to closure/receivership.
