Chittenden v. Empire Stone-Dressing Co.

This case arises on a verdict of a jury, taken subject to the opinion of the court at General Term, judgment there to be entered, with liberty to turn the case into a bill of exceptions.

The action is brought upon a promissory note made by the defendants, dated the 9th of May, 1854, in favor of E. E. Jarman, for the sum of $1,000. It was endorsed by Jarman, and then by Charles T. Shelton. The note was made for the accommodation of the defendants, was procured to be discounted for their benefit by Shelton, and he credited the amount to such defendants on his books in May, 1854.
