Bell v. O'Connor's Executors

Leach, P. J.,

When the Miners Savings Bank & Trust Company of Olyphant went into the *357hands of the receiver, it was liquidated and certain assessments were made against the shareholders, amongst them being an assessment of 20 shares against the estate of John O’Connor, deceased.

The executors of his estate filed an affidavit of defense in which they set forth that these 20 shares of stock had been sold by John O’Connor in his lifetime to Dan G. Jones, then deceased, in the lifetime of the said Jones, and by proper procedure they brought in the estate of Jones as an additional defendant to answer.
