80-0736Parnell Bank Receiver to Pay Another Dividend
An application was filed in circuit court today by L. L. Livengood, receiver of the Farmers Bank of Parnell, petitioning the court to authorize the payment of a 10 per cent dividend. The application will be presented to Judge D. D. Reeves in vacation of court. The petition recites that the receiver has paid all preferred claims and dividends of 25 per cent on common claims and is now ready to pay another 10 per cent on common claims.
A divorce was granted Saturday to Edgar Owens from Ruby Owens, of Hopkins. This suit had been heard several days before but at that time was taken under advisement by the court. In this suit the plaintiff alleged he and his wife were married in Montgomery county, Iowa, August 23, 1919, and lived together until October 9, 1934. Owens, who is a carpenter living at Hopkins, was granted custody of four minor children, Marie, age 15; Raymond, 12; Loretta, 9 and Madelyn, 7.
The court also approved the applications of W. A. Blagg, special deputy commissioner of finance, to compromise bills receivable and charge of loss in six defunct banking institutions; the Gillam Loan and Trust Company and Farmers Trust Bank, both of Maryville; Citizens Bank of Graham; Farmers Bank of Parnell; Farmers and Merchants Bank of Hopkins and the Guilford Bank.—Maryville Forum.
