Description

Multiple articles (Mar–Jun 1905) refer to The Citizens' Bank of Norfolk, receiver and court cases involving the receiver. The clipography shows the bank was in receivership (i.e., closed and in the hands of a receiver). The articles do not describe a run or an explicit suspension action in the snippets provided, but receivership implies permanent closure; therefore I classify as suspension_closure. No clear evidence of a run or misinformation trigger is present in the texts supplied.
