Special to The Georgian. McRae, Ga, June 14. Directors of Citizens' Bank say Cashier Olin Pharr is innocent after review shows books and cash in good order. Shortage of 4000 came from him cashing worthless checks and drafts from former periods and one $1800 draft from an Eastern firm not charged to the bank. Directors and citizens oppose prosecution and support his return to family, even offering to cover the shortfall.
