The Ola Town Bank opened its doors again
on Wednesday after being in the hands Of
receivers since December 26th. This is good
news to the many depJsitors among whom
were quite a number Of Hartford people. 1t
appears that there never was any necessity for
the action as the institution was in perfect
liz solvent condition and would have been
helped by Clearing House had they known OF
its temporary embarrassment At the time
that its doors we're closed there was on de-
post about $3.50 600 which has been locked up
ever since. Mr.. Theodore Wilcox, who had
been cashier Of the bank for the past twenty
wears rendered his resignation and Mr. Milton
3. williams an expert accountant was elected
to succeed him. MIR. Wilcox will be retained
in the position Of assistant cashier.
The capital stock of the bank is 100000
aud, as shown by the statement OF President
Homer, o; the Clearing House, this is unim
paired. Its surplus, it is understood, biI
charged of to cover losses from bad debts
which caused the temporary troubles of TIT
bank. These aggregate about SlS0,OOO, an(
include the money borrowed from the bank b,

by lsaac Robinson, both insolvent.
