paid the bank is in excellent condi-
ton. No steps have been taken
looking to the prosecution Of the for
mer cashier, and it is understood that
lno such action is contemplated.
Investigation by Examiner Burk-
hardt showed that the discrepancy
occurred within the past II years,

absolutely correct with the exception
of a period of about two or three
years nearly ten years ago.
