"A few days ago Bank examiner Sanders, as is is wont, dropped quietly in at the Carrollton, Kentucky National Bank and began an investigation.  Yesterday he filed his report with the proper authorities in Covington, and what it contained is known only to himself and perhaps is present custodian.  The contents, however, may be surmised when it is known that since Mr. Sander's appearance at the bank, it's gentlemanly cashier, Mr. J. N. Vance, has disappeared, and the rumor has gained credence that $5,000 of the bank's funds has disappeared with him."  Cincinnati Enquirer, September 18, 1888
    “The Bank Directors have decided upon locating their banking house on the upper end of R. P. Butler’s lot, on High between Fifth and Sixth streets.  The building has been contracted for, at $3,000, and the work is to be speedily commenced.”  from the Carrollton’s Daily Mirror, April 10, 1852.
