Bank Failure At Bainbridge Tied To Agricultural Depression
Depositors of the Farmer's State Bank at Bainbridge, closed by the State Banking Department, are expected to be paid in full or largely as stockholders face assessments. The bank, with about 125000 in deposits, suffered from agricultural depression and a past bank robbery. Charles Moffett, Greencastle native and major stockholder, led efforts to stabilize the bank, but bad loans and a prolonged downturn doomed operations. State examiner Thomas Barr and Kenneth Donnell are auditing the books, which are said to be in good order with no mismanagement.
