Description

Articles (July–Aug 1914) repeatedly refer to 'William H. Lightner as Receiver of the Bank of Minnesota, St. Paul, Minn.' indicating the bank was in receivership. The provided bank name 'Bank of St Paul' appears to be incorrect for these clippings; corrected to 'Bank of Minnesota, St. Paul, Minn.' No mention of a depositor run in the clippings—only legal summons referencing the receiver—so classified as suspension/closure with receiver assigned.
