Will of Mrs. Nicodemus II sparks bank name change bid
Creditors and directors of Peoples National Bank consider a provision in the will of Virginia Nicodemus widow of John L. Nicodemus. If the bank changes its name within six months to include Nicodemus the will provides a $100,000 bequest to the hospital and a memorial to her husband. The plan contemplates funds used for hospital additions and a bronze tablet. The will, dated January 21 1922, names Thorns J. Newman and W A Sharvin as witnesses.
