Description

No newspaper text describes a depositor run. Court docket entries (Aug 23, 1901; Dec 16, 1901; Mar 18, 1902) refer to receivers being authorized, receivers selling assets, and receivers releasing funds — indicating the bank was placed in receivership and being liquidated/sold. Therefore this is classified as a suspension/closure with receivership (court action).
