Pincite

Opinion

Judgment affirmed. Held, that the appellant was liable upon the face of the draft, he having signed in his individual name without anything to indicate that he did so as agent, and that waiving the question of the admissibility of the extrinsic evidence, there was nothing in that evidence to relieve him from liability, as the agreement between the firm of Rhodes & Server and the bank did not authorize him to make a draft for the firm.

Hardin, J., not sitting.
