Description

Articles (May 8 and May 15, 1912) show the bank already in receivership and the receiver advertising a public sale of the bank's furniture and banking house for May 20, 1912. No run or prior suspension is described in the text, but placement in receivership and sale indicate the bank closed permanently. I infer 'state' bank from the name (no 'National' or 'Trust' present).
