a check.

with a discernment which would

she wrote her a note, explaining

The girl was rapturous with love
and pride. She exhibited her f1ance
as if he were foreign prince. And
her friends put up with it partly
from loyalty to Nancy and partly
because they really liked Eric Mel

There was something dependable
about him, and inherent firmness
and self-control which seemed to
inspire confidence. During the re-

aminerS
Heavy Losses Sustained
In December, 1921. the banking de-
partment ordered the directors to
charge off about $4,000 worth of
paper. This charge-off impaired the
capital of the bank. BY agreement
with the controllers office, the di-
rectors were permitted to purchase
these doubtful assets from the bank
for $4,000, which was found to be
sufficient to cover the impairment Of
capital.
Evidence also showed that in 1920
the capital stock of the bank was in
creased from $150,000 to $300,0 and
that the directors of the bank, with
one exception, did take some of the
new stock.
Numerous other charges. running
the gamut of omission and commits
sion, were made, including damag-
ing evidence against the character of
the president with a prison record.
The judge in the Superior Court of
Niagara County. N. Y, recited many
items of negligence charged and told
the jury to decide whether the in
vestigation the directors had made
was all that was necessary or not.
Evidently the jury decided adverse
ly, for judgments varying from $780,

individual cases.
