Appellate Court of Illinois
Assumpsit. Appeal from the County Court of Ogle county; the Hon. Fbank E. Reed, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the October term, 1909.
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Willis
This was a suit in assumpsit brought by Charles Hohnadel, appellee, against John J. Ellsworth, Harry McNair and John E. Smith to recover the price of a horse bought from appellee by Smith for which he gave his personal check, which later was dishonored. The declaration contained the common counts only. Appellants all joined in a plea of non assumpsit, and Ellsworth and McNair interposed a verified plea of non-joint liability. Upon trial, appellee obtained a verdict and judgment for $152.50, the purchase price of the horse, and Ellsworth and McNair prosecute this appeal.
