    3. BEDFORD WEEKLY MAIL BEDFORD, INDIANA FRIDAY, AUG. 31, 1900 When the Bedford Bank failed several years since, George NEEDHAM, Trustee of Marshall township, had on deposit there township funds. After the dividends were paid in the assignment mater, suit was brought on the Trustee's bond for the balance, together with another small account. The matter was litigated in the courts for several years; but after a bitter contest judgment was rendered in favor of the township for about $2,000. After while NEEDHAM's property was sold, and failing to pay the amount, the balance has been paid in by the bondsmen, D. F. CHAMBERS, Samuel BENNETT and James McFADDEN, and is now in the bank to the credit of the township.
