Herrick v. Whitney
15 Johns. 240
Opinion
The witness was responsible upon an implied warranty that the note was not forged. He, therefore, had a direct interest in establishing the fact which he was called to prove; for by obtaining a verdict for the plaintiff, on the plea of non assumpsit, he protected himself against his own warranty.
Judgment for the defendants.
