1Opinion of the CourtDavison, J.

This is an action by A. F. Johnson as the payee of a $2,500 “order” check against the Security National Bank of Duncan, Okla., as a collecting bank, which is asserted to have received the check (from one other than the payee) as a negotiated instrument under a forged and unauthorized endorsement purporting to be the endorsement of Johnson.

The case originated in the district court of Stephens county, where upon trial the plaintiff recovered judgment for $2,300 representing the amount of the check or its proceeds, less a $200 offset claimed by the defendant and allowed by the trial court.
