The motion was heartily seconded by
Mr.. McIntire who stated that the busi-
ness OF his house would continue with
the First National bank as heretofore.
and urged that all present regardless Of
former affiliations should stand by the
bank in it's endeavors to preserve the

subscribe individually to the motion
made by Mr.. Moran.
Mr.. Courtney was IN full accord with
all that had been said and thought it
was the first duty Of every citizen to do
all in his power to allay excitement and
impart confidence
Mr.. Watson had done business with
the bank for eleven years. and believed
II to be AS strong now as ever. as a
proof Of which he had deposited all that
he had in hand to-day. and would con
tinue to do so
Mr. Holt spoke of the assured tinan-
cial responsibility of the directors Of the
bank who had signed the announcement
and said that there was no need of any
depositor having any fear of the safety
Of his money.
Col. Swaine said that though he was
not strictly of Miles City. he had always
felt great interest in the welfare Of the
town and its institutions and believed
that the First National bank should be
cordially supported. He related an Incl
dent Of his recent experience with a
California bank which had followed a
somewhat similar procedure and saved
disaster to all concerned.
