Opened for Business. We are authorized by the directors of the Bank of Troy to state that the bank was opened for business in Dr. W. F. Roberts' office promptly at 9 o'clock Thursday morning after the fire. The vault was opened and found intact and in good shape. The safe was moved to the office, and the bank is running on without a hitch. The loss from:the fire was very small. The committee is now looking after the selection of a site and the plans for the erection of a new new building. This is one of the best banking institutions in the State, and will soon be in a new and better building doing more business than heretofore.
