hope was offered in the directors notice
posted on the bank doors. There was no
demonstration by depositors and APP
parently little excitement, though a large
crowd gathered In front of the bank.
Out of S1.2O2.OOO outstanding in loans

ton for which the security is weak.
Individual loans in excess of $G}gD
caused the first suspicion Of the exam

1t is said that President S. P Gillett
has borrowed to that extent, but that
he has made over personal property to
indemnify the bank. So far as known
there is nothing criminal in the alleged
mismanagement of the institution.
The Citizens Bank has total assets.
