A Run on the Bank.
[St. John Telegraph.]
There was a run an a bank in South
Framingham (Mass.) the other day.
Tho Boston Post tells what caused it:
( "Bridget Mulcahy, domestic, gave it
as her opinion to Laura Downey, also a
domestic, that in her opinion banks, not
any single one in particular, but speak-
ing of them in general, were not safe.
Laura Downey gave this opiniou to
Mary Oliver, domestic, who was about
to deposit one dollar in theFarmers' and
Merchants Bank, and when this opinion
came to her ears she decided she
wouldn't, and told her mistress, Mrs.
Harriman, that she heard the bank Was
not safe. Mrs. Harriman talked the
matter over with friends. Result of it
all was that when on Monday the cash-
ier of the Farmers' and Merchants' Bank
I opened for business he was astonished
to see a crowd of women depositors
waiting for their money. For four
days they pulled it out steadily, and
after they had witiolrawn :x50,000, coin-
; loon sense assorted itself and the run
stopped, It all came about through
Bridget Mulcalhy having alt opinion
that Laura Downey co-incided in and.
1 Mary Oliver believed. It all proved to
be the most ridiculous bank run over
I known in Massachusetts."
