Description

Three sheriff's sale notices (Aug 1919) identify the Chicago Title & Trust Company 'as receiver of the Morgan Park State Bank', indicating the bank was in receivership/closed by that time. The articles do not mention any run or temporary suspension/reopening; evidence points to a permanent closure with a receiver handling asset sales.
