" Ax Ixmnasrixo CASE -ul suit of considerable interest between a farmer in this vicinity and an implement agent Was recently decided at the Brantford Assizes. It appeared that the farmer purchased some machinery from the agent, giving his nbte there. for; but as he had a sore hand and, could not Sign the note, heltold th agent, in the presence of witnesses, to do so for him, which he did. In the! meantime the firm called upon the farmer and he gave them a note also, which he promptly paid wherl due, but refused to pay the agent the amount of his note. As the farmer in the inter. val,had, it seems, made some remarks about forgery and so on, the 'agrnt entered an action for slander putting his damages at 85000. The pln'tntiff' who had been selling machinery on his own account got a verdict in his favor although the amount ot dunmges grant- ed was only a small fraction id the amount sued for. The case is interest- ing, as it shows that a note new be binding although signed by another.
