According to an article it had been found that the Bank had been defrauded by one of its trusted officers of about $34,000.00. I know that several officers were put in jail for this. Does anyone know what month this might have taken place or tell me where I might find more articles regarding this scandal - possible would it list those responsible for the "fraud"? W ould appreciate any suggestions where to find any - thank you You might try The Elizabeth Daily Journal it was published back then and I found a lot of my info there. It is no longer published but it is on micro film Pat --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Health - your guide to health and wellness
