"They want me 3 WwJBSy to pay up ... so they can settle the estate" Such situations can and do happen when people borrow from friends or relatives. It could happen to you just when you would find it hardest to pay. That is why it is better to borrow from a bank where you can repay a loan in installments to suit your convenience. Bank loans are low in cost and a private, confidential matter between you and the bank. Why not investigate? First State Bank X} Tt / woUott/ / -O-ederxl Member F. D. I. C. — Established 1883
