County Bank Loses Fight On Mortgages
The People's Banking Company of Smithsburg and several directors lost a bid to recover mortgages worth 150,150 tied to depository bonds. The Maryland Court of Appeals affirmed a Frederick County ruling allowing Fidelity and Deposit Company and others to keep the mortgages after a merger was rescinded. The case accompanied the creation of the First State Bank of Smithsburg to replace the defunct bank.
