Named gap — settlers current, November 2026; banked More Businesses lk-gap-banks and the Lane A suspension schedules
The chief-as-casualty and turnaround-rescuer tests cannot be run for Lakeville's bank, because the bank's chiefs were never named — and the gap, not a story, is what this article banks. The banked gaps file states it plainly: no president or cashier of the 1917–1930 bank was named by any carrier reached. A bank that suspended in 1927, reopened that June, and suspended finally on 21 February 1930 had, in the nature of the record, a president who lived both events; whether he was casualty, rescuer or neither is a question the reached record cannot put to a name. The settling sources are named and current: Rand McNally's bankers directories and Polk's Bankers Encyclopedia, 1918–1930, which print small-bank officers year by year, and the Department of Banking's liquidation reports behind them. The item is banked as a named gap with its settler, and no chief is invented to fill it.
