Description

Multiple notices in October 1897 identify Fred B. Grinnell as receiver of Spokane Savings Bank (signed Sept. 25, 1897) and advertise sale of assets. No article text describes a depositor run; instead the bank is in receivership and assets are being sold under court order. I corrected nothing substantive besides interpreting repeated notices as the same receivership event.
