People's Pilot, Volume 4, Number 40, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 March 1895 — New Bank. [ARTICLE]

New Bank.

Rumor has it that the Citizens’ State Bank is going into voluntary liquidation, and that there is being organized a new state bank, backed by the strongest syndicate ever formed in the county. It is said the directory will represent half a million dollars, and that the new bank will have a local support in its directory equal in dollars to any bank in Lafayette, Logansport, or other larger towns. The town of Rensselaer is said to be the wealthiest town in the state for its population, and the fact that we have four banks now running and a fifth strong one now organizing only verifies this fact.
