cred that the cashier, A. ID. Wilcox,
was short and called in the State
Bank Examiner. 1t was found that
the capital and surplus, amounting
To about 500 900, were wholly dis
sipated; but the Messrs. Houck aud
Williams promised that the depOs-
itors should be paid in full, so they
turned over Sl00, 900 worth of prop
erty owned individually by them,
including the homes Of the HOucks
which were decided to their wives;
and last week the hank was opened
with funds enough to pay all de-
mands. The cashier has been ar
rested for embiZzlement. Messrs.
Houck and Williams are receiving
much praise for the sacrifices they
made.
