HICKEY, Circuit Judge.
It is stipulated by the parties that this is an appeal from the Order of the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma wherein plaintiff’s complaint was dismissed for want of jurisdiction based upon a finding of lack of diversity of citizenship.
The sole issue is the question of whether or not the parties are citizens of different states.
The citizenship of appellee Cordell National Bank is established in Oklahoma for jurisdictional purposes. Mercantile Nat’l Bank v. Langdeau, 371 U.S. 555, 561, 83 S.Ct. 520, 9 L.Ed.2d 523 (1963) at footnote 11.
