1929, as the nomination prints it

One sentence is the whole of this bank's record. The Commercial District nomination (§8) states that the town "also had a second bank operating south of the movie theater in 1929" — the theater then occupying the south storefront of 140 North Main. Read against the January 1927 closure and the September 1928 reopening fight, the sentence is unreconciled: it may describe a reorganized or reopened institution, a successor bank chartered into the gap, or loose phrasing in the nomination itself. No carrier reached names it, dates its charter, or gives it officers. It prints here whole, as a conflict standing against the closure record, not merged with either bank in this section. Its settlers are the nomination's own source class — the 1929 Sanborn map — the Indiana Department of Banking's 1929 report, and a 1929 bankers directory.
