The only clear text is a legal notice (Feb 1, 1930) referencing the Oil City National Bank's receiver and a court date (Feb 4, 1930) for the receiver's final accounting. No article text describes a depositor run; the presence of a receiver indicates the bank was closed and placed in receivership (permanent closure). Evidence is limited to this single snippet.
