  11. Story of Laurel's first bank robbery has interesting conclusion [Commentary]

    I read with great interest your article Jan. 31 about Laurel's <a href="http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/howard/news/community/ph-ll-history-bank-0131-20130130%2C0%2C5742812.story">first bank robbery</a> by John Morgan.

(By the way, if every part of government was as efficient or accommodating as the state archives, there would not be much to complain about.)
