Court of Appeals of Georgia
Complaint; from city court of Atlanta — Judge Reid. November 11, 1915.
1Opinion of the CourtHodges, J.
1. A note in form, “We promise to pay,” etc., “and, whether maker, indorser, or surety, severally agree to pay all costs of collection,” reciting that it is “given under the hand and seal of each party,” and signed, on one line, “Spiller-Beall Co. (L. S.),” and directly below, on the next line, “B. J. Spiller, Pres.,” is the note of the corporation, and is not the joint note of Spiller-Beall Company and E. J. Spiller.
2. Testimony of the plaintiff, that when the note “was discounted and he got the money, it was [his] note,” was not a mere conclusion of the witness, but a statement of fact.
