Another Step in Banking
Changes in This City,
Voluntary Liquidation Dec. Is
For Both National Banks.
Consolidation Then Expected, One
Institution Continuing Business.

Through the action taken Monday at
the meetings of the stockholders of
the two national banks in this city,
the Oakland National and the Gardi-
ner National, the two banks will go
into voluntary liquidation at o'clock
on Dec. Is, 1909. What action will be
taken after that is not fully decided
upon, although it seems to be the gen.
eral idea that the two banks will con-
solidate and that one of the sets of
offices will be given up. Both meet
ings Monday were brief and the vote
to liquidate was the only business
transacted. The banks are two of the
oldest institutions in the city. The
Gardiner National Bank was incor-
porated in 1914 while the Oakland Ma
tional was incorporated in 1855.
