teincn, and of my brother. VIM. Y. S,van,
who bad acted Is the President of the Bank. pro.
foicci, 1 am inciii'cd To think, the delays
which attended the final completion OF fills I,,si-
ness. Alter making nay efforts 10 get this pa
per executed, I was requested 10 seniIit TO the
secretary OF the Treasury; and | accordingly
d.d so, ana believe that a correspondence tool,
place between him and TIE bank upon the sinh.
Ject oil The deed; il was returned to me about
inc month oil biay, 1922, and was finally exc
o"teu ny 'he Board OF Directors of the Bank
some time afterwards, the precise period l do
not now rccolicct. 1.-THE time it was cxccnt-
Ell none OF us, believe, were aware that the
charter OF the bank had expired. The impress
sion generally was, that a power had bcen-
served TO 1T, i'll coEsnp.. with the os&rbanlis
OF the District, TO wind up its affairs, and Inc
time given was, l think, five years; but So il
was, upon looking at the law, the Franklin
Hank was omitted, and its charter at an end, he
fore the deed OF assignment was finally cxccut-
ed.
When this information was obtained, I was
requested to turn my attention az ain to the ORR
ginal agreement, and TO see whether the United
States would be able to recover their moneys
upon that paper-upon considering that paper,
1t seemed TO me that the notes which had hccn
negotiated i'll the bank while il was incurporat-
ed and endorsed in bank, might be applied To
the use of the United States, and I accordingly
obtained possession of those notes. and filed M,
t"e cacoioi'e.tsp aYaoie 10 the United States,
and brought suits Mt law upon those notes in be-
half cfthe United States, which suits are still
mostly depending.
AS To the stock notes, no measures have yef
been taken upon them, nor did the agreement
with the bank authorize any steps TO be vet to
ken, but when it may be necessary to resort &C.
them, it seemed to me that n Court of CHANGER
would compel the payment of them and give to-
the United States The same relief as if the as
s%ignmcnts had been regularly made.
If the United States SHOULD be able 20 e,c,ro.
the payment Of these stock notes, l should en-
terrain no doubt but that The money due TO the
United States may be obtaincd-but otherwiS
L considerable loss would be sustained.
