Dickerson Bank Trial Continues With Damaging Testimony

At Guienwoop Iowa, J S Crawford and Yetter test another day in the Dickerson bank failure case. Witnesses describe private dealings, a large debt to a cashier, and attempts to fix finances while board of trade documents and bank drafts are scrutinized. Cross examinations target connections between drafts, post office orders, and the firm. The defense begins presenting character witnesses flagging Dickerson’s reputation as honest.
