Mays Proposes Grand Bank to Discontinue
Ed Mays president of the Grand National Bank proposes to liquidate the bank after a May 25 burglary that looted $1,000,000 from the vault. A new Continental National Bank would take over, with the same officers including cashier and director Gifford J. Herbert, now reinstated under $50,000 bond. William A. Brittin, also under $50,000 bond, is reinstated as custodian. Depositors’ losses would target the Grand National, not the new bank. The bank weathered a run last Saturday with withdrawals of $739,000.
