Missouri Supreme Court Reverses Bank Receiver Action
The Missouri supreme court in Jefferson City reversed the St. Louis county circuit court’s appointment of Fred Essen as receiver for the $2.5 million People’s United States Bank led by E. G. Lewis.

Essen welcomed the ruling, noting most debts paid and depositors fully covered, with only about 35,000 to 10,000 in stock remaining and ongoing dividends at about 85 cents on the dollar.
