Boys, K.C., for the defend- ant, elicited from Mr. Hay that the bank knew a fraud had been per- petrated on Switzer, but he could not say whether Switzer knew the bank had stayed action against Orr. He admitted, however, that Orr had been given three months time, but he claimed that was before he had learned .p the frzvud.
