Description

Article (1857-10-22) repeatedly lists 'Notes of Suspended Banks' and specifically names 'LOUISIANA BANK NOTES' among notes taken at par, indicating Louisiana Bank was suspended at the time. The article does not describe an active run, reopening, receiver assignment, or permanent closing explicitly. Because there is no evidence of reopening and the notices treat the bank as suspended, I classify this as suspension_closure but flag uncertainty due to lack of explicit final disposition.
