BILOXI, Miss. (AP) The Peoples Bank in downtown Biloxi opened 125 years ago last Month, and has what probably no other bank in the world can claim.
The bank’s official logo is a Biloxi lugger boat, adopted in 1956. Yet its “mascots” are a gargoyle with the body and glare of a dragon and a witch on her broomstick weathervane.
