Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 40, Number 37, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 14 January 1908 — A Warning To Creditors. [ARTICLE]

A Warning To Creditors.

Possibly there is no need to sug--gest to creditors of the Parker bank at Remington that they should be extremely careful whom they select for trustee of the bank. It is understood th at both Jasper Guy and Chas. G. Beale are extremely acceptable to the banker, and this should be sufficient to cause the creditors in their effort to acquire all the information relative to the bank to select some other person. Jasper Guy has been Mr. Parker’s legal advisor, anil this should be against him. jasper Guy within the past four years has be adjudged guilty of au effort to Kill his brother-in-law, Tip Kenyon, and the creditors of the bank have the right to have a man of clean past record. ChaS. G. Beale is a high class young man, but he was associated with Mr. Parker for so many years that it would be better to get some man as trustee who is more a stranger to the Parker banking methods, for possibly it may develop that the bank has been indulging in peculiar methods even back to the time" when 'Mr. Beale was associated with it. Surely a cireful book keeper and confident of Mr. Parker’s for so many years should not be selected, even tho he be the very soul of honor, for he should nut be placed in a position to be accused of withholding any of the facts.

The Republican does not feel that it should do anything more than isape a fair warning to toe creditors. The examination of Mr. Hinshaw has developed such un expected things that it is best to have the entire course of the bank entered into by some thoroly qualified person in no manner obligated to Mr. Parker. In our opinion neither Jasper Guy nor Chas. G. Beale should be selected. ” Let the creditors get together and select a qualified man before the meeting next Saturday. If James H. Chapman, the Me Coy bank trustee, could be inc uced to serve, he would make an ideal trustee. His experience with, the McCoy bank, his qualifications as awyer, clerical officer, bookkeeper and real estate agent would make him the ideal man to handle the Remington bank to the best advantage, at the minimum ot expense. * The mainly important thing is to get a man of high qualifications*
