Petition for Receivership Before Court
Hope was expressed in circuit court this morning by Attorney General W Preston Lane that speedy settlement of the affairs of the Peoples Banking Company in Smithsburg would lead to reopening of the bank. The state filed a petition in equity seeking receivership, with the State Bank Commissioner to be named receiver. Opposing views argued by Daniel W Doub suggested the move could affect Peoples Bank’s appeal over a Frederick decision on $130,000 in mortgages tied to a merger. Doub contended the bank could be solvent if the mortgages were returned. Continued discussion noted on Page 10.
