was chosen to invite the executor of the Bar

ron estate for the sum Of $500 loaned by Mr..

the bank without knowledge of the trustees.
They have also voted to call upon Mr.. Bar
ron's bondsmen to make up the deficiency ap-
pearing, and invite them to unite with the
bank in employing accountants to go over the
books and state the accounts correctly. The
