Description
Single short notice (Mexico Weekly Ledger, 1877-02-15) states the Farmers & Traders Bank of Mexico, MO has suspended business and that depositors may obtain their money at the Southern Bank. No run or receivership is mentioned and no information about permanent closure is given. Outcome (reopen vs permanent closure) is not reported in this article; I select suspension_reopening as the closest category for a suspension with no reported run or receivership, but the ultimate disposition is unknown from this single notice.
