Mayfield v. Wheeler, Geiger & Co.

Texas Supreme Court

Decided July 1, 1873PublishedCited by 5 opinions

Appeal from Karnes. Tried below before the Hon. D. D. Claiborne. The former report of this case, in 31 Texas, 395, in connection with the opinion now reported, sufficiently states the facts.

1Opinion of the CourtOgden, J.

This is an appeal from a judgment of the District Court of Karnes county, upon a certain letter of credit by the appellant to D. H. Taylor & Co., of New Orleans. The cause has been before this court on a former appeal, and is reported in 31 Texas, 395, and, judging from the report of the case as then presented, and the decision of the court, we are led to the conclusion that the cause may-have been defectively transcribed in the record, and that a very important clause of the letter of credit, the foundation of the action as against the appellant Mayfield, may have been omitted.
