Description

The bank (listed as Cumberland Savings Institute, Md.) appears in contemporaneous 1857 lists of 'suspended and discredited' banks published during the Panic of 1857. The articles simply list it among many suspended banks; no run or reopening is described. I classify this as a suspension leading to closure (suspension_closure) because it is included in a list of discredited/suspended institutions without evidence of reopening. Bank type not explicit from name, so set to unknown.
