“Sanderson and Louis C. Hyde organized the Bank of Beloit with a capital of $60,000, and continued in successful operation until 1861, when the bank discharged all its liabilities and divided its surplus capital among stock-holders, and sold the franchise to William C. Ritchie, under whose unfortunate management it collapsed.”
