Description

Article (The Oregonian, 1926-05-21) states checks/dividends to be given depositors and that the bank 'was to reopen' with a May 20 signing. The piece implies the bank had been closed/suspended earlier but does not describe a run or the cause of suspension. OCR errors in text; date inferred from article header (May 21, 1926) and internal May 20 reference.
