Description

Articles (Sept 15, 1933) repeatedly refer to 'the receiver the Miller State bank' and describe the receiver accepting federal home loan bonds to replace first mortgages. There is no mention of a depositor run or of the bank reopening. Evidence indicates the bank was in receivership (closed) at the time articles were written, so classify as suspension leading to closure. Date of suspension not stated in the clippings; articles dated 1933-09-15 report actions by the receiver.
