Promissory notes case upheld by circuit judge Thayer
Judge Thayer of the circuit court of appeals at St. Paul affirms a ruling on Lincoln county notes to Blair Bros. The notes of 1888 totaling 650 dollars were contested over negotiability after being sold to Blair Bros. by a bank. The defense argued the horse dealt for was worthless and words about exchange and costs destroyed negotiability. The decision holds such language destroys negotiability to the extent signers can defend as against an innocent holder.
