The state's bank commissioner had some disturbing news and wanted Connolly's involvement in his agency's looming problem. These puzzling conversations were the first of many in which Connolly began realizing incompetent dealings had been taking place in New Hampshire government regarding a failed mortgage company in Meredith, New Hampshire.
