““Charles D. Scott was the secretary and treasurer of the Scott Weighing Machine Company, and the evidence shows he was selling the stock of the Scott Weighing Machine Company with the knowledge and consent of W. H. Davis, appellant herein, who was, during most of the time covered by the evidence in this case, the president of the said company, although it is shown Scott may not have been selling the stock under the direct supervision and direction of the president, but with his full knowledge and consent.” (Davis v. Rolley, 124 Kan. 132, 133 , 257 Pac. 746 .)”
