Britt winced when he saw what was printed on the card. pending examination of resources and liabilities and auditing of accounts. Per order STATE BANK EXAMINERS. Mr. Starr ordered Britt to tack that card on the outer door. "Isn't there any other way but this?" asked the president. "There's nothing else to be done certainly not! I'm afraid the institution is in a bad way, Britt.
