A Correction Regarding Bethel
Bank.

In our last issue, we published
an article regarding a ruling of
Secretary of State Ben L. Bruner,
to the effect that so per cent. of
the capital stock must be paid in
by Kentucky banks in cash and
that this ruling was made in the
case of the incorporation of the
Bethel Bank, of Bethel. Bath
county.
We are now in receipt of a let
ter from Mr.. w. H. Pieratt, presi-
den of the Bethel Bank, as follows:
Bethel, KY, June 25. 1910.
Advocate Publishing Co.
Conference.-The little article of
your last issue in regard to the in
corporation of the Bethel Bank.
will say that before our bank was
opened for business, which was
March "a 1910, the proper pa
pers were sworn to by the bank
off Gals that fifty per cent. of our
capital stock had been paid in and
all fees due the State were en-
closed with said papers and for
warded to the Secretary of State
for recording same, and if not
done, it was no fault of ours. We
would appreciate the fact if you
would, in your next issue, make
an explanation of the facts as sta
ted above. AS we acted promptly
on this matter of business, we feel
that we are entitled to an explana-
ton to our people.
Very truly yours,
w. H. PIERATT,
President Bethel Bank"
The article was taken by us
from the Lexington Leader and
was published solely as a news
item, under the belief that it was
thoroughly accurate in every par
ticular. We are now informed
that all of the papers sent to the
Secretary of State did not arrive
by the same mail and this may &C
count for this ruling, if made.
We are indeed glad that our at
tention has been called 60 this mat
ter, as it is our desire to deal
fairly with everybody, and we
cheerfully publish the above card
from President Pieratt, with this
correction and explanation.
