BIBLIOGRAPHY 



Manuscript Sources 



Court Records. Use has been made of the records of the county courts at 

 Vincennes and of the Supreme Court at Indianapolis. These records go back 

 to 1790. Xo doubt much additional information on the history of the banks 

 could have been had from the other counties in which branches of the bank 

 were situated. They were involved in litigation almost continuously after the 

 Panic of 1837. Too little use is being made of this source of history. 



Reports. In addition to the printed reports found in the legislative records, 

 many of the original manuscript reports by bank officials are on file in the 

 State Library. These have been used to check up the printed reports, but no 

 reference to them has been made ordinarily. They include many details not 

 in the printed reports. 



^lanuscript copies of letters written by Nathaniel Ewing and others, of 

 the Vincennes Bank, to Secretary Crawford, are in the office of the Clerk of 

 the Circuit Court of Cra^-ford County, Illinois. Printed copies of these letters 

 maj' be found in American State Papers, Finance, Vols. IV and V.
