Appellate Court of Illinois · decided 1896-03-31

<p>1. Promissory Note—Payable to Maker's Order.—The title to a promissory note, drawn payable to the order of the maker, and indorsed and delivered by him, passes by delivery. 61 Ill. App. 32.</p>

Affirmed · Decided 1896-03-31

Mr. Presiding Justice Gary

¶1delivered the opinion of the Court.

¶2John McAuliff, the original appellant, brought this appeal to the last term of this court; it was submitted November 8, and decided December 2, 1895.

¶3He was dead before that submission, and the judgment of affirmance then entered has been vacated and his administrator and heirs substituted in his place, who have filed an additional brief.

¶4The hardship of the case appeals to our sensibilities, but nothing new as to the law is presented, and the decree must be again affirmed for the reasons expressed in the opinion first filed.
