The Dartmouth General Bank was a short-lived provincial bank operating in Devon during the early 1820s, precisely the period when country bank failures were becoming routine enough to alarm Parliament. The bank closed within a few years of opening — its notes, never widely circulated beyond the local merchant and fishing community, survived in small numbers simply because the bank's collapse came before most of them re-entered the system.
John Hine's signature is the only name consistently associated with the management of this institution. The 1826 Country Bankers Act, passed in the immediate aftermath of a nationwide wave of provincial bank collapses, effectively ended the era of single-branch private note issuers like this one.
