Description

Newspaper notices (Apr–May 1910) show receivers appointed for Capital Savings Bank and calls for depositors to present claims. No articles describe a run; the bank is in receivership and appears closed. Exact suspension date not given in these notices; I classify as suspension_closure because the bank remains closed with receivers.
