Counterfeit two dollar notes on the State Bank of
Indiana purportng have been issued by the Branch

bered on the left $780, on the right 4O535, payable to
H. Bates whose name is engraved-signed s. Merrill,
President, countersigned ID. r. Dunihue, Cashier.


This note is well calculated to deceive persons not
handling much Bank paper. One thing, however,
about this note and all others of the same plate not
made payable at the indianapolis Branch, furnishes to
the community means of detecton-that is, that the
name of H. Bates (the President OF the Indianapolis
Branch) is engraved in them al-whist the notes
of all the Branches are filed payable 70 some other
person, usually to the President of the particular
Branch where they issued Let this fact be borne
in mind by all who handle Bank notes and it furnishes
one very important safeguard against counterfeits
