Cappel v. Evansville Oil Corporation

HAMITER, Judge.

The Evansville Oil Corporation, a defendant herein, has been for several years and is now maintaining and operating a refinery in Webster Parish, Louisiana, and selling its manufactured products on a cash basis.

For a number of months prior to May 24, 1938, N. S. Cappel,' who is plaintiff’s brother and the owner and operator of the Trio Service Station in Alexandria, Louisiana, purchased quantities of gasoline and kerosene from the named defendant. Some of the checks given for the purchases were unpaid and this brought about a strained business relationship between those parties.
