Latham's Bill and Ohio Life and Trust Charter Request

A detailed petition to the Ohio General Assembly seeks extra-session action to extend the Ohio Life Insurance and Trust Company’s charter to issue banknotes.

Bank scandal taints 1839 schedule of directors and debtors

In a special report from the Bank Commissioners, the 1839 40 records reveal President and editor James Wilson as debtor and endorser for substantial sums, Whig candidate N Dike listed with large liabilities, and directors as endorsers totaling over two hundred thousand dollars. The piece questions renewed bank charters and hints at political turmoil over the recount.
