For the first time since the closing
of the doors of the Farmers & Traders
National bank, haa It been posidble to
secure a list of the stockholders,
which la still more Interesting to the
numerous depositors since the stock
holders have been asaeswd 100 per
cent, made payable December 19.
While The Observer does not present
this as coming officially for such Is
not the case, but the liet contains few
errors, Those who are In touch with
the conditions are of the opinion that
the amount so received form this as
sessment will be somewhere between
$15,000 and $18,000. Mr. Ackles, Mrs.
HaHsett and J.'H. Rlnehart claim that
they sold their stock, but that the
game was not transferred on the books.
Some of the others are not financially
responsible for the amounts and there
are some estates which are considered
questionable as being liable.
