Ohio State Stock Bank Note FOr8er-
les. :
AUDITOR OF STATES OFFICE, Ohio,l
Columbus, Sep. ], 1853.


AUDITOR OF STArE's OFFICE, Ohio,(
Columbus, Sep !, 1903.
Editors Ohio State Democrat:
The issue from an unknown quarter OF traudu-
lent notes printed on the genuine plate OF the
Ohio State Stock Banks, with the forged sigma
tures of their Presidents and Cashiers, has been
! the occasion of much annoyance to the public,
and given rise to sundry uncharitable rehectlons
on this department.
A fixed belief that unbroken silence in this
quarter was essential to the discovery of the au.
thors Of these forgeries, and that seeming ablil-
ty on the part of the Auditors Office to relieve IT.
self from suspicion, would tend to produce less
caution and watchfulness among those with whom
the fraud had really originated, has heretofore in
duced me to abstain pertnaciously from all COM
mitments or explanations, whether by letter or
newspaper. The motive for this silence no long
or exists An important arrest at Clnelnnatt
(that of Ransel Lamb, bank note printer,) has al
ready been made, and others will not be hindered
or delayed by this publication. / am gratified
therefore, in feeling at liberty to notice without
further delay, some of the erroneous statements
that have been sent broadcast over the country,
and to state officially:
First-That the forged notes on the Ohio State
Stock Banks, or any part thereof, were not stolen
from the Auditors Office;
Second-That they were not lost from the Au-
ditor's Office;
Third-That they were never in the Auditors
Office; and
Fourth-That they do not bear the genuine
signature of the Register.
To have published these facts long since, would
have given the Auditors's Office little trouble,
and saved it from much unpleasant comment; but
TO have made such publication, would have con-
ferred no benefit on individuals or the public, and
must have served to alarm the real perpetrators
of the fraud, and notify them that suspicion must
thence-forWard rest on themselves alone.
Asearly as April last, the undersigned became
aware that small amount of forged notes on two
of the Ohio State Stock Banks, had been put in
to circulation. And Immediately scrutiny was
made into the condition of the bank accounts in
charge of the Register, and the result of the in
vestgation precluded all possibility that the forg
ed notes had ever been in the hands of the Reg
lister, or within the walls of the Auditor Office.
The mode of determining these facts was as con-
elusive as it was simple. On the lst day of May
1863, the notes on hand were carefully counted
and their amount duly noted. Next, the receipts
Of the various banks for registered notes, deliver
ed to them by the Auditor, were carefully exam
ined, and their aggregate amount ascertained.-
Theae two items were then added together. The
next step was to procure full and careful state
ment from the Engraver, exhibiting the amount
of notes which had been sent to the Auditor up tc
the first of May. With these data, the following
result was obtained:
