George Esterly & Son v. Van Slyke

This is an action upon two promissory notes, each for $100, executed by defendants in error to plaintiffs in error for the purchase price of an Esterly harvester and binder. The cause has been tried three times. The first tidal resulted in a verdict in favor of defendants; the second in a verdict in favor of plaintiffs for $90.

The third trial resulted in a verdict in favor of defendants, which the court refused to molest, and proceedings in error are now prosecuted by plaintiffs in this court.
