NEW BRUNSWICK BANK INFORMATION UNMASKS A FALSE BANKNOTE

David Gladfelter writes: "Karl Kabalac kindly responded by phone and
email to my request in last week's E-Sylum for information on the
officers of the State Bank at New Brunswick, N. J. as of December
1865. The information he provided is evidence that a note of this
bank dated November 10, 1865, is not an issued note, but a falsely
filled in remainder.

As such it is still the latest dated genuine New Jersey obsolete
bank note presently known. (A supposedly later dated note of the
Mechanics Bank at Newark is either fraudulent or is an erroneous
listing, because this bank became Mechanics National Bank of Newark
a year prior.)"
