Morse Seeks Full Payoff for North America Deposits
Charles W. Morse begins sending circulars to National Bank of North America depositors offering 50 percent of their balances paid in full with no interest. Depositors would forgo 6 percent annual interest, which Hanna the receiver would otherwise pay, and Morse would gain the accrued interest by securing final settlement. The 3 million in deposits could yield Morse a sizable return if many accept, while Morse asserts he will pay the full depositors and reveal plans after receivership ends.
