Description

Newspaper snippets report that the Home Bank of Goodland (Ind.) was suspended and that its former president F. D. Gilman was found guilty of embezzlement (Feb. 2, 1908). No article in the provided set describes a depositor run or a reopening; the suspension appears tied to bank-specific adverse information (embezzlement). There is no explicit mention of receivership or permanent closing in these snippets; I classify as suspension_closure because the bank is listed among suspended institutions and the embezzlement conviction implies a severe bank-specific failure. Date of suspension is not explicitly given in the snippets; Feb. 2, 1908 is the conviction date referenced.
