DIVIDENDS PAID BY STATE BANKS WHICH FAILED FROM 1802 TO 1899--(Continued)
Average dividend about 55%
1The records of state bank liquidations were not collected by the state banking board until after 1899, as up to that time each receivership was entirely in the hands of the district court. This table contains the answers to two sets of questionnaires sent out by the Nebraska legislative reference bureau, first to neighboring banks, and then in the cases where no information was obtained from these, to the clerks of the district courts. In many cases the records appear to have been completely lost, in others they are unintelligible, and in a number of cases no answer was received to the questionnaire. The average dividend, however, established by the returns on half the failures, is probably very near the average dividend of all these early insolvent banks.
