The federal banking record, run whole for the city's banks — and the failure test that came back negative
What it is: the Businesses leg ran the federal banking discipline entire. The Comptroller of the Currency's Alphabetical List of National Banks (revised 7 May 1917), read first-hand, fixes the First National's charter — no. 5167 — and with it the bank's 1900–01 sequence; the day and month wait on Pollock's Tabular Guide monograph for charter 5167 and the Comptroller's 1901 annual-report table, named and not pulled. The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago's licensed-banks list no. 21 (30 June 1935, supplements to February 1937) carries the survivors' roster; the Federal Reserve Board's mimeographed letters, through FRASER, carry the 1932 assumption and the 1983 merger order; the Reconstruction Finance Corporation's report of January 1936 stands beside them. The FDIC's institution-history record was reached through the South Bend build's banks file — a cross-build use, stated as such — and the FDIC's Failed Bank List was searched by name and by city for Mishawaka's test, which is negative and printed as a finding. Rand McNally's bankers' directories of the 1870s–90s were attempted; the 1879 Indiana pages' machine text defeated a first-hand read, and the attempt is logged at that strength. The state Department of Financial Institutions' incorporation records stand named as the settling source for the savings and trust relations, unpulled.
Its standing, from this build's experience: the series disciplines the directory record: six bank houses stand in the 1921 classified, two of them new to the build, and the charter number — not any local account — is what dates the First National. B. & Son (1868) and Clark & Whitson (1902–03) operate in the directories while the federal list is silent, and the fragment prints the correction whole.
Where it fails: no bankruptcy or receivership docket was run by any pass — the failure record stands at Perkins's 1917 receivership, pointed to, plus the vanished-by-1921 subtraction from Howard's roll; the docket itself (the Enterprise film; the federal court records) is a named gap riding the Catalog, not a settled negative.
