their solvency depends upon these bonds

how can depositors or insured persons ex-

George Washington White. who died at
Muscotah, Atchison county, last week, was
the sixth hnesl descendant Of Resolved
White, who came to America on the May
flower. The local papers speak of him as
the last survivor Of the Florida war, but
this is probably q mistake. For many
years he has been a justice of the peace in
Atchison county, and his life was marked
by that rigid morality which came as an
heirloom to him from his Puritan fore
fathers. .
