1933: "The Paine Thrift Bank is not open for business this morning. It is closed by the Wisconsin Banking Commission. This is the first bank to be closed in Oshkosh due to the Depression. Visited John Kellermann this evening. Poor fellow is looking very bad." [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
1939: "Ma Potter is able to be up today. She goes to Mrs. Procknow's for a game of cards in the evening. Edward Weisheipl has a birthday. He tells us he is a man now; he must be 21." [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
