tione for a new trial wend in arrest eitered judguent for piaintirf 
in the sum of $16,000, whieh defendianta contend should be revereed, 

It is argued teat the verdict is againet the manifest 
weight of the evidenee; that the court erred in the giving and re. 
Yaeing of inetructione and in ite ruiisgs upon the admission of 
evidence, and that the damages are exorzenive, 

The deelaration was in twe eounta. The fivest in substanee 
allaged that on December 16, 1931, siaintiffY was o passenger fer 
hire on one of Aeferndsntea’ street care; that 1t thereupon became 
the duty ef defendants to excreine the highest degree of care, eta. , 
#6 as Hot te enuse injury er harm te ker; that they did net observe 
their duty, but om the contrary “by their then agente snd servants” 
80 carelesaly, negligentiy snd lepreperly managed, operated and eon- 
trolled the car that plaintiff was tarewn from her position therean 
te the street and injured, 

The second count, sdeoting paragraphs of the firet, avers 
that it became the duty of defendaite te keop aid maintain the 
etreet car at a etandstill until plaintiff had sempletely bearded 
the same; that they did net observe their daty but on the contrary 
Gaaeed the ear te be moved forward with w sudden and viclent

Aleputed, that inetrauctions are to be considered ae a series and 
that omissions in one instruction which sre supplied in othere 
will be considered harmless unless there i2 an obvieus tendency te 
mislead the fury; and she say that manifestly in a cage where, a8 
here, there are twe irreeencilable and conflicting thesries ag te 
the manner and placa of the agcident, it ia imposrible for clain- 
tiff te state ail tse law of the case embracing totn of the con- 
Tilcting theories in ene instruction. An examination of the ine 
@tructions ae s whele discloses that the jury by other instructions 
were elesriy and repeatedly infermed by the court that »vlnintirfr 
Rad alleged in her dedlaration that she vas a passenger for hire 
upen the etreet gar and that unless she sad proved this by 4 pre 
ponderanes of the evidence, ahe could not resever, There were at 
ieast three eueh inetrustions, wille in still another inetreetion 
the fury was told that there wee ne charge in sleaintiff's declarae- 
tion that she was infured as a reeult of faiiing frem the atreet 
ear or being struck by the front ef the street car, and that if 
the jury believed from a preponderance of the evidenes that plain- 
tiv? elther fell in front of the car or wae struek by the front of 
the street car, there aculd be no recovery ii the case, Obviously, 
as defendante suggest, this eritielan of the instruction would nave 
been obviated by inserting at the beginuling of the iustruction a 
Clause tc the effeet that "1s the jury believes from tas evidence 
that plaintiff was o paceenger on the sar in queation, then the 
jury are inetrusted tuat it is the duty ef goamen carriere,” ete. 
Defendants cite a number of eages, some involving ¢riminal oreseeue 
tions, where an inetruction sot in fers different from this one wag 
held to he mislesding ag assuming a aantroliing fact which wag 
clearly in dispute. The oxeee cited are too nuueroue fer review.

bum, 153 211, 200, and Grifenkan vy. 
Chicago Bailvays Uo., 299 Ili. S60, are twe of the causes involving 


¢ivil actione where the rule has been diseumsed and applied, These 
eases are to be distingulaked from these in which instruetions have 
been held erroneous as emiiting certain «essential elements while 
directing a verdict. Theat ig not the oriticgiom, but the contention 
is that the inetruetion as a whele assumes a controlling md eontre- 
verted fact. An instruction of this kind is net for this reasen 
held te be reversibly errotieous in every case, but only where the 
reviewing court must reach the conclusion woen an examination ef 
the whele ease that 1t would prehabtly mielead the jury. The feet 
that in sueh case anotier instruction was given stating the law 
eorrectiy upon the particular watter assumed doas not cure the error 
ef sue tmatruction. Ye think the instruetion subject te eriticiem 
in this reseect. 

befendantsalsee contend teat the instruction 41a wet Limit 
tae apolicaticn ef the rule ef highest degree of practicable eare te 
the evidence te which it could be properly applied, The jury, it is 
Said, was not advised as to *hen under the law a person becomes a 
Passenger and becomes eatitied te the pretestion ef this highest 
degree of care, Defendants esy that no other inetruetion advised 
the jury om thie point, and that fer aught that appears in the in. 
struction the jury mey have undereteed that it aoplied te a person 
whe atepped up te the traek for the pursese af boarding a particular 
ear then appreashing. it dees not, hovever, appear that defendants 
offered any instruction on this point, and if the jury was met ine 
formed in that regard defentauts are er in & position to come 

plain. 
Another eriticiam of insirustion fic, 3 ig that while it sete 


ferth the usual rule that a earrier is set an insurer of the abeo- 


lute safety of the passenger, it qualified that rale by ssverting

that the carrier wae obligated to exercise the highest degree of 
practicable care to geeure the safaty of the pasvenger and was 
‘responsible for the slighest negleet, resulting in injury ef the

and practically nullify the sen-insurer rule snd corres ondingly 
enlarge the rule of highest degree of practicable care; thet the 
rule that the carrier is net an insurer of the safety of the eassen- 
ger in a limitation on the rule ef highest degree ef practicable 
eare and that without the sen-linsurer rule a jury “ould be likely 
to extend the application of the highest degree of »ractieable care 
beyond ita proper limit; that the courts have always been careful 
to limit the passenger rule of care se that juries will net be mis- 
led and that the noneinsurer rule is intended to sarve thet purpese, 
Sefendsnts point out that, im the application ef the rule

told the jury in substance that while a common carrier was net an 
insurer of the ssafety of passengers that did met “in the slightest 
degree” relieve the currier of its duty te exercise the nighert 
degrees of sare, ¢tc., Yas erroneous, and that by auesh Ainetruction 
the jury would be enceuraged te extend the rule requiring highest 
degree of care beyond tue Lisitation ef the nen-ineurer rule, Plain- 
tiff peints out that this court has refused to reveres “here aubetam 
tially similar instruetione were given, ag in iliingis Southern Ay. 
eo, v. Hubbard, 106 Til, Appe 462, where the inetruction ssid that 
the eurrier was on insurer of the passenger ageinat any injtéry that 
might befall him by reasen of ite negligent act, while he was in the 
exercise of care; as in Kaghensid v. Ghicage Hy, Co., 210 Ill. App. 
87, where an instruction stated that = carrier was reapensible te « 
passenger for “the slightest negleet te exercise such care,* and as 
in a still later case where this court refused te reverege for an ine 
struction whieh anid the earrier was ebligated te use the highest 
degree of practical care and was ‘responsible for the slighteat 
neglect resulting in injury.” 

We de not new Bold that the use of the phrase in an inetruee 
tion ef this kind ia in 211 ecsees reversibly errensous, avertheless, 
we do sol4 that such language is subject to the oriticiam thet it 
may in some cases mislead the jury snd might in a Gae@ ciose upen 
the facts require a reversal, 

instruction Se. 3 is further eriticized, in that while 
helding the carrier ressensibie fer the sligheat negleet resulting 
in injury to the passenger, the instruction does net confine this 
reaponsibility to the negligence charged in the dselaratien. It 
ie pointed out that the rule te fundamental and witneut exeeption

ligenece may net be indulged usless the declaration ia broad enough 
te include every kind ef segiigence which might have euanne the ace 
cident, aid that etherwiese the rulg that recovery may be had enly 
em proof of the negligence charged in the declaration might be 
violated. Gn tha ether Hand, sisintiff pointe out mumersus other

view of the full, concise and gemplete inetructions given, it ia 
preposterous te argue thet the jury might nave in any way been mis-

When this inetruetion is carefully read, however, while not 
4ireetly and expresely mandatery in form, it La in substanee mandatory

ban hospital in Usk ark. The claim of Misa *alker as filed in the 
Probate court is in the form of an aceount between Dr. Vecionald and 
herseif, in which she charges him “by eash placed to the eredit 
Gharles Nacdoneid in the Drexel “tate bank on Jetober 24, 1951, and 
for money ten had and received from said Ann ‘elker by the said 
Charles Macdonald .... $3579.75." There are other iteme in the ec-~ 
egunt which it seams were act allowed by the jury and which sre 
therefore not involved in the appeal. 

The Glainant wes incompetent to testify under the statute 
as to any oceurrence with reference to the transaetion pier to the 
@eath of Dr. Nagdonald. “he produced witnesses, however, vhose evi- 
dence tended te show that five daye before the death w& Gr. Maeden- 
ald, on Gotober 26, 1931, Kiss “alker took to him in the hospitsl in 
Sek Park a certificate for 25 shares of stock in the Comeonweai th 
Edison Co. This sertificate was in her nome. 4 photograph @ it is 
in evidence, “She at thet time signed the blank form of assignment 
on the usck of the certificate, and Mr. Yhitehesd, of the Cozmon- 
wealth “dieon Co., at that time wrote his name on it as & Witness to 
her signature. The gertificste upon its faee appeare to mMV¥e been 
issued to the eleimant Getober 15, 1951. nm the day foliswing the 
execution of the assicnment at the houpitai, the evidente shurs 
Glaimant took thie certificate, together with another for 25 shares 
in the same company fasued to or. Macdonald and endsursed by him, te 
Mr. SoCarthy, sho was the manager of the Orexel ‘tate bank. UP. 'G=- 
Carthy made out a “sell order” which ies *alker signed. In. Hacdon- 
eld'’s signature aleo appears on thie order. This sele was thereupon 
executed by the bank through e broker. One of the sertificsates mid 
at $143 a share and the other et$l143p a share. This sell order siso 
directed the sele of a hunéred shares of Imsull Utilities, whieh, it

The proceetis after dediwting charges ancunted ts the sum of 06,368. 
Ro part of this sum was paid to Mise Yelker, and all the money resi- 
ized fram these sales was deposited to the ageounte of Dr. Masdonsld 
in the bank. 

when Sr. MeGarthy wes on the witnese stand he was asked by 
the attomey for plaintiff to state the conversation with kies Yealker 
at the time thia deposit was made. The attorney for the exesuter ob- 
jeeted, and the objeetion was sustained. Beeause it wae a cart of the 
actual transaction, we think the verbal statexent which aecomm nied 
the aet of depositing this money should have been admitted in evidence, 
On @ress examination the banker was asked by the attorney for defend- | 
ant if the oroceeds were deposited in the account of Ir. Maedoneld at 
Miss Salker's recucat. The attormey for sleimant objected, eteting 
that if that question was allowed he would then ineist that the whole 
conversation should be received. VYhereupen, the attermey for the 
executor withdrew the evestion. Yhuse evidence wae kept out vhich 
should have been admitted and which it is fir te infer would mve 
been favorable to slaimant. On the evening af the day ty. Meedanald 
died, James Macdonald hie son, Gertrude, his daughter, Miss Yel mr 
and a Mp, Ammiger, were present. Mr. armiger says he suggested to 
Jemes Macdonald that if the dootor had seeuritics or money in the 
bank 1¢ would be well to «et them out before the bank was aware thet 
the dostor had passed away. It wae ateated thet the dooter had money 
on deposit in the benk and that the daughter Gertrede had power of 
attorney to sign ehesks. Thereupon, Mr. Armiger had Gertrude draw a 
ehesk in blank and handed it to Vies “elker. om the followin ay, 
Sundey, Mise Welker wae at dinner at the home of Mr, Armiger, and 
the testimony is that after dinner claimant took from & bag, money 
amounting to 88,726.01. Arniger testified that ciainent placed this 
money on the table seying that swat of br. Macdonald's money wes in

Macdonald further said: “as my father had bought all ef the CGommon- 
wealth Sdison stook that he gould from a man by the nome of »hitehead, 
who was selling the stock two or three doliars below the market pice, 
and that ir. thiteheed yas not allowed to seli more than 25 mares to 
any single customer, and for that reason he hed put 25 shares in vise 
Palker's name. Mise talker then sald thet he omlered her to sell the 
stock in his neme and in Siga@ talker's same and to put the money in 
the secount eat the Grexel ‘tate bank, and thet wae the resson t here 
Was 60 much money there.” 

Ruth Neal, witness for defenduent, testified in wm bata nee 
that she had a conversation with Miss “siker on October 31, lvl, st 
about ten ofeleosk in the morning at the “est Ouburben hoa pital, imne-

that the money wae taken out of the envelope end that she said: “You

two or three éellarea cheaper. Ohne says that she did pay that Ger- 


trude had a joint aceount with the doctor in the crexel otate venk; 
that x. Armiger suggested thet Curtrude write out a check, agen it 
end withdraw the money from the savings aseount; thet Gertrude

that check was used. 

ux. Arcaiger on surrebuttal denied that “las falker had 
seid to him im hia home on November 1, 1031, “You must remember thet

he saw the dootor again about three weeke before he died -- about 
Gotebker iGth or Leth and "he told me thet he couldn't buy any « toek 
ag he already purchased from Mr. thitehead.” 

it seems that at this time the Utility “sewrities ¢com- 
pany Was avting as selling agent for stock of the Commonwealth #di- 
SOn Company and that the employees of the soucany vers used as a- 
gente in making these sales. Wr. “hitehesd was an employee of the 
Utility Securities company and effected the actuel sale of this 
stosk, on Cotober G, 1931. Dr. iMaedenald tought 25 shares for each 
ef hia children an¢ 8&8 shares for himself. Twenty-five sharea were 
3016 te the claimant Ann ‘elker. A memorandum as of that dete was 
issued en contract No. 5146, which is in evidenes as ¢isimant's ox 
hibit S. It shows the purehase of 26 shares of Commonwealth idis on 
company atock at the prise of {139 2 share, or « total of #5476, and 
states that the stock vhen fully exid ia to be inwusd te “Anne *al~ 
ker, 765 Jekwood fivd., Ghieago, Tli.” The neme of “Anne Kalker* 
is signed thereto as purchaser. The nenorandum shows an agrees nt 
ta purchase stack; to pay cash within thirty days; the reesint of 
$328, a statement that the sale was made sy Uhiteheed, and the ap- 
proval of the Utility Seeurities company dated Setober 18, 1931. 

thitehead testified that the lenghand writine on the 
memorandum was his, and thet the memorandum was prepared on Goto ber 
&, 1931, in Or. Meodonald’s office; that on Getober 9, 1951, he 
again Galled at the office of Dr. Macdonald u:d asked him for an 
affidavit thet the 25 shares of stook to be pleced in Miss Uolker's 
neme was actually her orn; that Or. Macdonald replied thet 1% waa 
Miss “alker's money, but that he would give an affidavit, which he 
wrote and took to the next room where it was typed; thet when it 
was returned to whitehead it had been signed by Mias falker and the 
seal of the notary put upon it. The origins) appeara in the reeord

as Exhibit 4 and is as follows: 
“"'To “hom Tt May Coneern' 


This is te eertify that I am buying 
26 shares of Commonwealth Sdisonm stock in my name. 


(signed) anne ‘alker 
768 Cukwood hivéd.” 


Attached thereto is the s¢ai of a notary public. 

Mies Julie Uternberger, who saye thet ehe was an employee 
af Dr. Maedonald at thie time, doing typinc, ete., was show this 
exhisit and said that Or. Maedenald wrote it om « serap of vaper and 
told her to copy it and that she took it into another room end copied 
it. She also says that on the day before, Sr. ‘hitehead wes in the 
office and that Mise yalker called her to type a letter, and that the 
doctor seid, referring to vr. thitehead, "This pest ta eitting here 
again and he wants you to buy some otock.” Ghe alse eaye that thite- 
head returned the next day; that Or. Macdonald then gaid thet Hise 
Walker wanted to buy some stock, and thet Khe was ready to give her 
monscy $o buy it with; and that sas when she typed the peper. 

y The testimony of “hitehesad is further to the effeet thet 
he told Or. Masdonald that he was limited in selling the atoek to 26 
shares to a sustemer; thet euch wee the rule ef the company, and that 
was the reason vhy he took the affidavit; that the sompany required 
him to do so. He gays thet the 25 shares for or. Matdonald, the #& 
shares for hie son James and 25 for Gertrude were sola om the 8th, 
and that the shares to Mises Yalker were #014 on the foll@ ing day. 
The affidavit was requested because the advance payment on atecount 
of Hiss Walker's stock wes to be taken out of the chesks of Dr. Mac- 
@oneald. Fe says: “Dr. Meedonald enid thet he would gee ies tel ker 
end would protest me. “hen I saw the dogter on Setober @th he sald 
that he did not have the money loose, but would buy some shares 
later on, and that for the shares s0id to Mise ‘elker be would give 


his eheek or cash, as he wee taking ¢are of Miss *alker’s payments.”

As a matter of fact, “hitehead had at various times before these par- 
ticular transactions sold stock to the doctor and also to Mies Welker. 
At a prior time she purchased eight shares of the Commonwealth ‘dison 
company stock on the advice of Or. Maedonaid. 

A temporary reeeipt upon a printed form uaed by the Utility 
Securities company was issued to Ann Yelker on Jetober 15, 1931, on 
sontract No. 5146. ‘The original is in the record as Exhibit 5 md 
atates that the amount paid is $3150. At the bottom of the receipt 
appears in large type a printed notice in substance that the reeeipt 
is issued in lieu of recording payment on the invoice or security 
savings account book and a request to keep the receipt and when son- 
venient to present it with invoice or security savings account beok 
for entry. 

There. is evidence, too, from which the jury had a right 
to infer that thie certificate of stock was dsiivered to cleimant and 
that she held possession of same from that time until she delivered 
it up to the bank to be sold. 

The executor contends that the fect that the proceeds of 
the sale were placed in Or. Macdonald's account and therefore in his 
possession, creates a presumption of ownership which must be overcome 
before the prima facie title will be dtvested. He cites Martin v. 
Martin, 174 Iii. 571; Coffey v. Goffey, 179 Til. 285; Chestnut v. 





Chestnut, 15 i11. app. 390, and other cases. He says that the infer- 
enee to be drawn from the act of plaintiff in depositing the proceeds 
in the sale of the stock in br. Macdonald's secount in the benk is 
that he was entitled to the money and thet it belonged to hin. He 


cites Miller & Graves v. Pratz, 179 Ill. App. 204; Kinahan v. butler, 








133 Ill. app. 459. We do not understand that the law as stated in 
these cases is questioned by claimant. This argument of the executor, 
indi cates a disregard of the theory of claimant's suit which is that 
she had a right to recover upon « quesi-centrast. See Restatenmt of 
the Law, Contracts, vol. 1, sec. 5, p. 7a, where it is seid: “"guasi- 


sontrsets, unlike true contracts, are not based on the apparert inten-

tion of the parties to undertake the performances in question, ner 

are they promises. They ere obligations ercated by law for reazcons 

ef justice.” Upon that theory oleiment cites Seterson v. Smith, ®11 
Ill. App. 451; Laflin v. Home, 112 Ili. 25%; Nirst Net'l. Bank v. 
Gatton, 172 Til. 625. She also points out, citing Jromwell v. Brom- 
well ‘state, 139 Ill. 484; Peabody Cosi co. v¥. Industrial Com. 289 fil. 
$35, that the presumptions upon whieh defendant relies are only preeum- 
ptions of fact, which in the last analysis were for the jury te ¢onsider 
in connection with all the evidenee and not presumptions of law to be 
determined by the court. “e think this coustruction is gorrest. Con- 
sidered as a rule of evidence the feet that the proseedsa of the sale of 
Claimant's stook was placed in the benk agcount of decedent would prime 
facie indieate the proceeds beionged to him, but the presumption wae 
only prima facie. It was not an abaclute presumption. Tt wes a rule 
ef evidence--a matter to be considered by the jury in the light of all 
the other faetsa which appeared in evidence. 

%e think, toe, the offered testimony of witnesses az to 
statements made by claimant in revard te her ownership at the time the 
stoek wae cold and at the time the stuek wae still in her peszession 
was erroneously excluded, and that this ovidenes should have been ad~ 
mitted. 

Pefendent also argues that since the claim was for « fixed 
asount of money, it did not sall for the sxereise of equitable rules 
by the Probate saurt and thet the ¢laimant ess therefore obliged te 
prove a precise gum due. Nowhere, ssys deferiant, is there any proof 
meade of any specific amount that claimant ever tured over to the de~ 
eedent. There is not, he says, a word of evidence to shor how such 
money claimant ever lounéd Dr. Macdonsid, » nd the reeord is si lent 
es to whether the lean waa tem or ten thousand dollars. Theres were 
facts, he seya, which micht have been easily proved, and in this con- 
nection he cites {chell v. Yeaver, 225 Ill. 159, where it wee heid

that the allowance of e elaim against an estate did not require the 
exercise of ghancery povers ty the Frebate court and that the mis 
upon review of eantroverted questions of fact is the same in such 
eases ag in other actions et ia¥. 

Here, sgain, this rule is not sontreverted. This cleim is 
not for money icaned. As already said, the euit is based upon the 
theory that as « matter of conscience clisimant iz entitied to recover 
from the estate the auount of money which the decedent received fram 
the sale of stook which telonsed to the claimant. “het sum ia defi- 
nitely proved by the aziount reeeived from the sele of stock. The evi-e 
dence is that one of these esrtificates broucht °S579.355 and the other 
$3567.25. The certifieate of claimant broucht one or the other of 
these amounta, and the difference is nat important. 

The gontrolling question in the case isc #®ether the verdict 
of the jury ie clearly and manifestiy sassinet the weight of the evi- 
dence, ae defendant contends it is, Yhe decision of that question is 
elese upon this record. In weichine the evidence we may not dierezard 
the faet that two Judges, one in the Pretbete court and the other in the 
Gireuit sourt, who sew and heeré the witnesses, have anproved the al= 
lovanse of the @laini; thet a jury oy tweive mem wha sise eaw ma heard 
the witnesses and those verticuier @uty it was to try the facts have 
alwo decided these issues of fact in @laimant's fever. 8 sre not um- 
minéful of the duty east upon courte to jesiously cuard the estates of 
decedente from wnearranted cisims. In thie ease the trisl judge, ve 
think, as airesdy stated, erred as agninst the gleiment in exeludi ne 
ecompstent evidence offered sy tor whieh it is foir te vregume atronciy 
tended to srove her ease. ‘¢ Sizht wish thet the reesrd di soles ed 
more fully material facta as te the financial transsetione between 
decedent and claimant. “e have not overlooked the testimony of Tanes 
Kasdoneld, whieh is denied by claimant, but he, ae well as clelmnt, 
is interested in the cease. Hr. amiiser too, seems to heave taken an 


unusual interest in the matter which makes it 4iffiewlt to give full

UR, PRESIDING JUSTICR BATCHETY 
DELIVERED THE OPINIGL OF THY Count, 


Thies is an appeal hy the Illinois State Pawners Asgociation, 
a limited partnership, and Jeseph @. horehak, from an order antered 
Bovember 27, 1933, appointing receivera for all the agsets and 
property of the partuersaip. fhe orser "ae entered without notice 
upon the verified bill of compicint ef Beatrice Feldman filed on 
that date. The record discloses a motion by defendants to vacate 
the order of Hovexber 27th and that the same was denied on Decen- 
her 22, 1933. Defendants save agvigned and argued errers in that 
regard, Mowever, the order of December 22nd was not avoealable, 
and as a matter of fact uo apgeni haa been oF gould be taken fran 
it. See Gmith-Hurats Ill. Rev. ®tate., ehap. 110, 266. i123, Tre 
only question therefore before this court is whether the chaneel- 
ley erred in entering the order ef Sevember 27th. 

It appears free the bill that tae aggociation is a limited 
partnership organised in 1919 under the Uniform Limited Partnership 
act (see Suithellurd's [1]. Hey. Stats. 1935, ehap. 106), par. 7, 
pp. 2123-27, Laws of 1917, B- 60¢.) ‘the articles of partnership 
are attached te the bill of compisint. The purpese of the partner- 
ship is stated to be te engage in iending money an taking real or 
personal property as security therefor, ete. ‘the partnership, ins 


faet, conducte a prosperous pawn-broking business at 140 Korth

be shown that Joseph ise indebted to the Agseelation fer a eam jas 
she ie informed and believes to be) of sany thousands ef dollars;

tueh is a summary ef the bill, consisting ef 54 printed 
pages. The question fer our determination ia whether the ageaint- 
ment of these receivers witheut notice was error. CGowplainant cone 
tends that by reason of the death of her husband the partnership 
theretofere existing was diesclved, She bases thie cantention on 
& eonetruction of article 9 of the partnership articles, which we 
are unable to follew. The article is lengthy and involved covering 
many subjects, and eemelainant interprets the werd “srevided" which 
ereceden certain caragraghs at expressing conditions with whieh she 
eays 1t was necessary defendants sheuld comply in erder te prevent 


@ disselution at her husband's death, In our opinion, thie eon- 


etruction would be contrary te the intention of the partners as

Hereover, parts of the bili are inecneiatent with the theery thet 
the partnership hare been in Cuct disesived, as in one gart of the 
bill where i¢ is averred that coupiainsnt served netice tast ene

she 41d, “desiring to organize under the act for here¢lf and for 
her brother Joseph emda for aii the Limited purtueres ani to prevent 
a dissolution.” Again, the language of article § is not in any sense 
mandatory, and the conetruction fer waich complainant gentends can 
net reasonably be based upen Wie words used in it. Gowplainant's 
conduct is aleo inconsistent with such conetrusction. “We held that 
the death ef Feldman did net dissclve the purtvuerghip. indeed, the 
bill of complaint is quite ingonslztent in this reepest. As a mate

"beth ga Limited and general partner,” which she can not be if, as 
she now contends, the death ef her usband bose fuctoe dicecived the

It 1s quite unneeeesary te discuss at length the Law apoli-

business ia large. iieny persone are interested in it and have 
eontributed considerable amounts ef money in order toe develen Lt. 
These perpone aseoclated themesives under tae Uniferm Fartnership 
act, apparently with the express intention of preventing the disea- 
lution ef the Agseciation as & result of the death, disability or 
ineanity of any sf the gartuers. Chief Justiee Geott said in the 


ease of First ge, 7 Lil. B07: 





“A receiver should be appointed in no case, unless Lt is 
made to appear there ia an taperative neaenalty for the ates, to 
preserve some particular preperty for such parties ae shall be 
entitled to the benefit." 

# @ourt will hesitate before canting apon ownera of a

geing and prospercus ene, where no cighte of erediters are involved 
and where there 1@ no ¢laim that the gearties in eharge of the bueie 
ness are inaclvent, Cemplainant insista (ae she rightfully may) 
that we should comsider mo part of the reeerd in this esse showing

the general partners at a time when (if the allegations ef the bill 
are true). the deceased husband sauct have aporoved. It comeleine of 
the faijure of defendants to perform the duty ef isamuing statements

that this is an event which sheuld be avolded, and if a0, there is

with interest at the rate ef seven per cemt per aumummay to secure 
Payment of the sote a chattel mortgage on the two trucks was given 
te defendanta. 

The mester's seaport then preceedia in detail to give the 
transactions thereafter.  ihen a wote matured or there was a 
balance duc, sev notes and chattel mortgages were axceuted by 
complainants and given te defendante. the report sete forth the 
necounts between the partica invelwing the making of these various 
notes an the amounts paid on account anc finds that when sn 
indebtedness watured complainants vere compelled tc sigm a renewal 
note far an smount substantially lesger than the amount due. The 
master concluded tmat the tranesctions between the complainants 
and these defendants were tainted by usury, and that the acceunting 
ahewed that there was no money duc or owing from the complainants 
to the defendante. 

The mister further fewid that ceviain of these notes 
were made payable to Murrey Stempel, one of the defendants (aet ing 
for Gold and Levineobs} who inderse? the same to the Botor Gar 
Finmanee Companyy that at thie time ac money was received by said 
ecmplainants fer seid notes, end thet this was a colorable 
transaction and net made in good fnithe The master further found 
that some question hewing ardsen with reference to thia mortgage, 
6a arrangement was made that the trucke should be sold st a chattel 
mortgage sale and should be purchased by Otempel, and thereafter 
gold te Minnie J» Stavek, one of the complainante, whe should 
execute her notes and chattel mortgage; that thie arrangement was 
carried out and Minnie Starek, the wife of Charles “Starck, ¢omplaine

by confession om these netes, which judgment ie still in ferce 
and uUentisfied; that subsequently otempel agcigned the mortg@age 
end notes to Claud A. Sneed, one of the defendants, whe esucei a 
writ of replevin to issue out of the Runicipal court ezainet 
Minnie Starck, ond the trucks were taken out of the possession of 
the eomplainants upon the replevim writ. ‘This suit was still 
pending in the Municipal court ef Chieagce., The master found 
that no consideration woe civen for these nates or she chattel 
mortgage, that the replevin suit sh@uld be restrained and enjoined, 
end that the judgment on the motes should be satisfied. 

Apparently Sneed, acting ac the asclguee of OLempel, 
held a sale of the trueke wider the terms of the chattel mortgage, 
and although complainents geve metice thet they were the ocners 
of the trueks, Sneed preeecded and scld the game to Chriet Slaeny 
aieo one of the defendamte. The mister could properly conelude 
thet in this tranacetion “tempol, “necd and Gleen vere acting as 
the agents or servants of Seld enc Levineem, doing business as 
Meter Gar FPinaree Company, and wore commiving and eoifedersting te 
evade the usury laws, and thet sxid agelcnments anc sale were 
merely s pretense for this purpose. The master slec fownd that 
all the notes and vhattel mortgages exeeuted by the complainants, 
avi whieh were retained by the defendants, should be celiveree up 
and eancclied, amd that the defendants should be required te 
gurrender the moter trucke takes by them. 

While the sbetract notes that objections were filed te 
this report, it fnile te show whet they were. Heither doses the 
gbestract show the character of any exceptions filed, in the 
brief for defendants counsel have undertaken to relate at consid 


erable length the facts and the secounty between the parties,

the previous tay at 2 foreclosure sale; the bailiffs left a card te 
the effect that the wrégarty was in their eustedy, 

July 16, 19352, the plaintiff filed pis affidavit for re- 
plevin, alleging that on June 21, 1932, defendent Horan, Bailiff 
ef the Municipal eourt, and Gudsitia and Fage, defendants, wrong- 
fully took and detained the goode and chattele: slene were filed 
and the case preceeded to trial, and the court found in faver of 
Plaintiff, 

While the lien of the chattel merteage, a8 ta third sergens, 
had expired, yet, when the mortecacee, Piwsronag, teok asseession af 
the chattels hefere the levy of the exeeutions, his gosseasion was

Rubber Ce., 262 I121. App. 387, aid other gases, In the first of 
these casea, after notices of sale were posted the wortgager was 
left in poesession of the property, which censieted of implements 
used on the farm; the foreclosure sale wae postponed indefinitely;

the execution levy was mada, the mere posting of notices of fore-

the second of the cited esses the levy of the execution was made 
before the foreelorure sale. In the present case the levy vas not 
made until after the fereclosure sale, 

The preperty covered by the mortesge sas a gomplete printe

real property under the statute any dasages he may have suff ored, 
fairly resulting from hie having been wrongfully kept out of ihe 
poesession, in thie, as im ail casea, coupensation ig the wasasure 
of damages, and if a plaintiff has been unnecessarily ainoyed er 
harrassed and his bueinesa injured by tae wrongful acts of o 
defendant in taking snd retaining peeseseion of real propurtiy, 
there is ne reason wiy, ln on action te recover posuesslon tueroel, 
he may kot plead and recover uch epsctial damages, * 

The court held in that case that the pisintifY nad preperly speeially 
Pleaded matters which entitled nim te damages in exeene of the were 
rental value ef the property. 

If plaintiff had, by especial pleadings, claimed daviages for 
matters arising at the time of the original trespass, defendant 
eould have suceessfully pleaded the five yaar statute ef Limitations 
an to such special pleas, and even if the atatute had not ran, def end- 
ant was entitled te notice that siaintirl weuld olaia more than the 
rental value ac that :¢ might plead to the same and prepere to meet 
#ueh claims upon the trial. Sflsintiiiy by her deglaration having 
@laimed only for use and geeupstien, was net entitled to reeever 
for extra dasager. 

the court inatrected the gary that ite sele function in this 
ease Was to fix the reasonable rental value ef the seven inchee ef 
land. In substance, this was repeated im seme sight inatruetions 
given to the fury. It ia evident that the jury entirely dleregarded 
these inetruetions, an¢ whether moved by eympathy or fer seme eter 
reanons, returned an excessive verdict. Swen if special damages 
had been alleged, the evidence would not have justified the ameant 
or the verdict. 

Plaintiff's brief! concedes that im the somaon law action ef 
trespass for mesng profits plaintif? ean recever apeclal damages 
only if the same are pleaded, bul asserts that the damages preven

@eolarstion alleged ne special gsmagee but the trial court adultied 
evidenee of the probable value ef the ¢rep whieh plaintifr might 
have raised. The Supreme court reversed the judgsent far the 
Plaintiff, the opinion saying that generel damages are euch as tne 
lawimplies and presumes to have accrusd iroa the wrong cemplained 
ef = speciezl damages are auch a8 renily took place and are not 
implied by law; and that in the latter ease unless the plaintiff 
states the particular dewege ke hae sustained he wili net be per- 
mitted to give evidence of it. 

In the instant ease plaictiff gave evidence teiding to ahee 
that defendant maiiciously enerosched on her property; that he tore 
down a femee ehe had erected, and sver ner protest and ebjactians 
Made an excavation om her property, and sltaough advised that this 
was on her property he pereletad in #reciing the eall of hia garage

A mumber of things were creaented on the oral argument te 
the court weick inclines us to believe that slaintiff? has seted ene 
Yessonably in thie matter, the has bed & nuaber of atlormmeys, one 
after the other, te handle her claim; at one time she danended that 
defendant pay her $10,000 a yeur for the use and eccupancy of the

Koreever, it appeare that the sidetake with reference to the 
lot line wae an henest wistaxe, Defendant evidently left the cone 
struction of the building te hie esniractor and took no personal 
part in lecating the north wall of the gareg@#; he vas in Virginia 
when thia was done. Eefeore the work was racucneed a survey was 
made and the sontraetcr started te wiace the wall acoarting ta the 
let line sheen by thia survey; when the contractor was sottfled by 
Plaintiff ef the encroachment on her lot tie work was stopoed, ond 
it ie stated a new survey was made which Lecated the bet Line at 
the same place, and relying upon thie the contractar ereeeeted with 
the work. Pisintiff seems te Have satublianed her claim am te the 
leeation of the let Line by digging wo sand igvating some ancient 
atakes under the siderals,. 

We reeite these things solely Tor the purcege of shewing 
that in our opinion plaintiff shoul¢ confer rit defendant fer the 
purpose of arriving at a settieuent of their alfYereness. Thhe 
honest wintiee ves defendant aheuld mot ba made the ceeusion for 
Mmuleting Kin im exeeesive damages. The defendant see shawn »

taken to the hoepital where plalntif? remained fer a eensiderable 
time, 

There ia ne dispute eas te theee facta, exeept that defendant 
eontends that plaintiff was being given a free ride in the cab: 
that he wae “deadheading" and therefore defendant, under the law, 
would not be liable unless it maliciously injured plaintiff, ef 
which facet there ise ne evidence, and the sourt aheuld bheve 4ireaeted 
® verdict in defendant's faver, as requested; that in any event the 
verdict ef the fury in fover of plaintiff ie against the manifest 
weight of the evidenes, 

At the request of defemiant the eourt inetructed the Jury 
that if they found from the evidence thet vlaintiff was net a nage~ 
enger for hire in ue eat at the time in question, their verdict 
ehould be fer the deffemdant. There was evidence to the @ffect that 
Pleintiff war » possenger for hire at the time he was injured, and 
therefore the motien of defoncant for an instructed veordiet was 
properly denied, The guegtion then is, le the finding of the fury 
te the effect that plaintiff was such passenger acsinet the manifest 
Weight of the evidence? Plaintiff testified that shortiy after eix 
o'eleek in the morring he hafle@ the cab in question am4 cot inte

place; that he found the eab demoliebed near the post and foun4 
that the fiag on the meter hed mot been pulied - that 1% was

Defendant further contends thai the court erred in refueling 
am inetraction tendered by it, by wate it wae cought te have the 
court instruct the fury that if they found fro the switence thet 
plaintiff wae riding in the cab at the invitation of the cab 
driver without the intention ef paying my Gare, or to berome a 
passenger for hire, then the plaintiff sould net reeever. The 
argument in support ef this offered instruction ie, taat if slaine 
tifs wane net & passenger but wae riding omly at the invitation 
oY the éGriver, he could net recover unless he waa maliciously 
injurad, and that thers wae ne ald egation in the d@olaration that 
would warrant a verdict finding that pisintiff wae gnllelouely 
injured, Be authority da cited in suppert of tide ereummt, 

Yhe ineatruction was treperly refused becuase there was ac evidence 
thet the piaintiff was riding si the invitation ef the Ariver, 
Mereover, at abave etated, the jury was ingiructed at the regueet 
ef defentant thet plaintiff could net resover unless the jury 
believed from o preponderance of the evideneo that sialntiff, at 
the time in question, was a pasmanger for hire, Ye think the 
inetruction given sufficiently severed the point, amd that it 

wae net errer te refuse the inatruectieon,

hold the money in trust for the girls “antil taey are o1¢4 enough 
or until they seed it;* that John #. Userleon said at that time 
that hie seeond wife said he ghould not have sent the $20,000 te 
Florence, and he replied that 1% wae Plerence's money and that he 
hed Mabel's and would give it to her when he thought she needed it. 

In addition to the foregeing witnesses, the claimant ealled 
L. P.Miller, an attorney whe Bad repreeanted Jenn #. Carlecs in a 
mumber ef matters in 1956. the witness stated Ke wae willing te 
teatify to conversations with John &. Carlsen, but Jid net want te 
be criticized for reveaiing professional disclosures. ‘tnereupen 
the executor stated he nad ne objection, but ceulieeh fer the exe~ 
cuter objeeted, and etated that ae bad no right te waive the ebjee- 
tien; the chieetion was sustained, Counsel then made an offer te 
ehew what the witmess would testify te, whieh waa in eubetenee thas 
John KH. Carlson had stated he was holding the inauranee money in 
trust for his daughters. 

Glaimant's position seems to be that whan Jehn *. Carleen 
in July and Geecember, 1915, received the money under the pelicies 
from the assurance society, it wae received by him as a trustee fer 
his two daughters, ani this sees to be predicated on the fact that 
the policies, when they were i«sued, were made payable te Gusie i. 
Garleon, the sesured's first wife, and thet #he requested Jehn &. 
Garleon te keep the insurance solisier and the money fer the tve 
daughters, and that afterward John i. Corieen stated te several 
witnesses tist s« was helding the money regelved frem the insurance 
company in trust for the dsugnters, 

We think the eentention eannet be sustained. the policies 
were issued in 1905 and 1904; they were payable te Gusie iL. Corleen, 
the wife, in ease she curvived her husband; but they sles previded 


that if the eesured, John &. Cerleon, was living 15 years after the

in paseing on the saeetion as te what wae required te eon- 
atitute a gift inter vives, the court in the KeCariney cease said, 
(p. 186): “Te conetitute a valid gift inter vives, possesvion and 
title must pass to and veet in the donee, or in a trustes for the 
denec. If anything remains to be fome to complete the gift, what 
eo remaine to be dene cannot be enforeed, an it im based npen no 
consideration. * 

In the Seaver case (182 111. 287), the aseured's widew and 
hie mother esen claimed the benefit of an insurance policy upon the 
life of the busband and eon, About a year after the aseured wae 
Barried he went te the ineurance company and executed an ageigoment 
of the policy te his mother and left ene eopy with the Insurance 
company and togk the other, with the policy, te hia heme, About 
four years later he made another assignment ef the poliey te his 
wite, One scopy of the avelgnment was attached to the policy and 
delivered by him to her, the other was delivere? te the Insurance 
company after his death. The court anid (p. 290): "Both assigvments 
are admitted by all parties to have been intended by the aseignor 
as mere gifts." it was eontended by the assignment of the solicy te 


the mother, the gift was complete and that the assured had exhausted

hie power of further aceigrment. In gonsidering thie surstion the 
eourt said (p. 291): “The eorrectness of the contention desends 
upon whether or not there was such a delivery ef the assigument as 
te put the eontrol of it and the peliey eut of the power of the 
aesigner during the remainder of hie life, It ie coneedes, as 
@learly it must be, that unless there wag such delivery the gift 

to the mother was net se perfected inter vives ax to give it validity 
a6 against the second asmignment.* “he court held that the delivery 
of the assignment to the mother was insurficlent, and ecantinuing 
aaid, “Hoe controversy 1s wede upen the orc3esitien that an actual 
Mmenuscl delivery was not necesuary, but it is admitted * = * that 

@ g002 delivery may be misde by acts withent worde, by worde with- 
out acta, or by beth; that «2 delivery may be legelly made to 5 
third pereen for the benefit of a grantec, or, af im thie case, 

the assignee. The usual mode of delivery is the sutual transfer 
from the grantor te the grantee, But it le too well undsrstece be 
@ell fer citation of authorities, that the deslaratione and conduct 
of the grantor in relation te the instrueesnt sey be such an te bee 
come equivaient te such actual delivery, and in every euch case the 
erusisl test is the intent with which the acte or declarations were 
made, and that intent is to be ascertained fren the donduct ef the 
parties, particularly the grantor, amd all the surreunding cireum- 
stances of the transaction.” And continuing (p. 992) the court, in 
paseing on the question of delivery ef a <ift or deed, said: "It 
is indispensable, whatever meane may be adapted to necomplish its 
delivery, that the deed pase beyond the fdeminion and contrel of 

the granter, for otherwise it can net he correctly sald to come 
Within the power and contrel of the grentee. Their intersets are 
diametrically eppesed, “oth cannet, consistently wlth ite sbjeete, 
have control of the teed at the seme time, and until the grenter 


parte with ali centre] ever it that of the grantee 4oes net attach.

policy of life insurarnee in the Aetna Life ineurenee goxpany, of 
2000, te her, gag Be woul’ keep She policy ond seelenment Sox 
her;" that the ritness communicated thie te the mother and she ree 
plied it wae very kind of her son. ‘The court sei@ (p. 295): *Thie 
testimony, considered soot favorably to the appellee {the mother) 
morely amounts to cayines that he made the aseignment, retained 
possession of it, and sent word te his mether that he hed made it 
and that he would ‘keep it for her.'” it wae held thie wae ineuf-

that they understeod he wished them te coliest inesuranee money for 
the benefit of the aseured's daughter; that they bad agreed te de 
eo. The controversy was whether the seoney went te the estate ar to 
the aisters, The seurt held that the insurance money went to the 
estate of the sesured and not te his sisters, and sadd (p. 217): 

“We may regard it ae clearly estebilessed that it wee Willdans' ine 
tentign that the petitioners should have thie ineurance, but if, 
from mistake of law, he failed ta do these things waieh the law re} 
quires to earry hie intention inte effset, mere proof of his intene 
tion, however positive and cofivineing, sanhet change the title te 
the property." The court there certinuing furtaer stated (p. 221); 
"Her does the evidence showy that Wiliiems erested s troat or consti« 
tuted Bimeelf the trustee of the petitioners, wid ao Held poeseesion 
ef the policies for them, *** Vrom a nere imperfeet gilt a trust 


cam not be deduced, (Badgley «. Vetrain, 65 111, 25.) Suepese the 





policies head been endowment policies, payakle during the life of 
Williame to Himself, Yould it be contended that wo suit sould have 
been maintained against him by the setitioners, upon the evidence 
in thie reeora, for the celicies, or the ereceeds sfter their cel- 
leetien? And if net sagainet Sim, then why in this case againet his 
adszinietratrix? 

"The moat thet can be eaid, we think, is that Williams ine 
tended to make a gift of the precescds of these noliciecs, or nerhape 
the policies **# te the petitioners, and toek certain stene te age 
ecmplish hie purpese, but left the matter incomplete, * 

Of course Jonn &. Carlsen could have made a gift of the ine

The record dineleses that suguet 22, 1925, Hervert be

applied te defendant fer a loan of 15003 thet the lean was made 
on that date and he executed and dehivered tc defendant hia 
promissory note for $1500; and that defendant ise Bat imcebted te 
Plaintiff in any sums, but plainsirf i ingebted to defendant in 
the sum of $1500. 

Defendant contends that Pisintiftf ig attempting te evade 
the effect of hie signed agreement of April 7) 1930, to suber the 
for enpital stock of the sorporationg that this agreement ia an 
effevtual bar to hig reeevery in this cause; and that, inaswack ag

fieate of depesit in the neo ciations he cam net new revover that

Plaintiff's theory is thet Merch Vo 1929, he lent the 
agaeeintion $20003 that he was repaid $1358 of the loan im April,

balance of the loan with interest; thet his signature to the stock 
svubseription agreement and the note for 81500 were Brocured by fraud 
and that he signed those documents ot che time he was repaid T1356, 
after he had been advised by the secretary of the eorperation, in 
whom he reposed confidence, that they were simply a receipt or paper 
for the records} that he was illiterate end did net knew the cone 
tents of the instruments: and that thease were questions of fact upon 
which the determination of the jury and the judgment of the trial

prints that the blank spnees were not filled in am that Sandler 
told him, “this is a receipt fer the money what you cot" that, 
when Sandler asked him to sign the inetrument in evidenee as a 
steck subscription agreement, he asked Sandler how many signatures 
he wanted him to sign and Sandler said, “we have to keep a reeord ~ 
you have full confidenee in me five er six yearn, and I wouldn't 
cheat youg” and that he then wigned it. He further testified that 
at the time he received the $1338 he signed both documents without 
knowledge of their contents, relying entirely upon the honesty of 
Sandler » 

Defendont declares that the present status of the parties 
is that defendant doea not owe plaintif¢ 466% or any other eum ef 
moneys that plaintiff owns 20 shares ef stock in Gefendant corpore 
ations and thet plaintiff owes defendant $1500 on the note, I 
insists that pleintiff is bound by his signature te the aferenone 
tioned subscription agreement, which moeificd his original centract 
ae represented by his $2000 certificate ef deposit, and extinguished 
any obligation on the part of either defendant oY Ate predecessor 
aseo¢iation on that certifieste, and that thie is true even though 
Plaintiff wae illiterate when he sigmed it. it ia urged thet « 
written contract can not be voided, varied or contradicted by parol 
evidence and several eases are cited to the effect thet even an 
iliiterate is bound by his written contracts thet if he eon not 
read it constitutes negligence on his part to sign «a contract 
without heaving it read te him. 

We fully agree that is the extebliched law, but none of 
the enses cited is applicable to the situation presented by the 
Case at bars inasmuch aa it did net appeor in any of them that the 
Signature of the party was obtained by fraud, duress or mise

plaintiff waited a year so that he would get 11% interest inctead 
of 7% for hie money} that about  pril 1, 1930, when he first ree 
guested his money, he wen told to euse back in thirty daysz that 
April 7, 1930, when it is claimed thet he signed the ateck sub-

to Sandler, plaintiff discovered that he needed money ond requested 
@ loan from the sasociation and that he acquiesced in Sandler's 
action in charging him $165 for the purported $1506 loan, allowing 
him but $1335, when, again, according to “andler, he could have 
eellected the face value of Bie $2000 certifiente of deposit plus

testified that the $168 deduetion from the amount ef the loa

amount either for 16 months or for 75 weeka, the actual tera of

on defendant in thie enuseg and that Sendler, having in his 
pesseseion the certifiente of deposit he knew te be worthless 

aa security for the $1500 mete, testified that he personally 
éelivered to plaintiff the evrtifieate for 26 shares of defendant's 
stock instead ef substituting 4¢ fer the Worthless security on the 
note held by him in the company's behalt. 

Defendant positively asserted in both its original end 
amenceé affidavit of merits that it reeeived plaintiff's jacos 
eertifieate of deposit in payment ef 26 shares of the corporation's 
stoek at the time of the execution of the subscription agreement , 
and there wae ne averment that sandler demanded and recelyed the 
certifiente of deposit as security for the alleged $1590 Loan 
represented by the note at the time that SYanssction was ¢laimed to 
have taker places Defendant's original theory as te the time ef 
the celivery ef the certificate of éeposit to it appears te have 
been abandoned om the trial. 

V@ are clearly of the epinion that the jury was duatiftied 
im the ¢onolusions reeched by it. Practieally every circumstance in 
the gage not enly indicates, but demonetrates, that plaintiff's, 
signature te beth the nete and the ateek subceripiion agreement was

When he sévised him that it was just a receipt and paper for the

There are go many significent admitted er preven facts 

im this record that stand out as veritable beacons to light the way

worthless security, a perfvetly geod certificate fer 20 shaven of

for a loan from the same company the very noxt day, and can not 
be explained away by defendant's counsel’ « statement on page 44 
of defendant's brief that “ever night and fellewing hig execution 
of the s'ock aubseription agreement, Reivits may have repented of 
Ais action." Such an argument ie illerienl and wicenvincing. 
If a man im plaintiff's cireunetanees needed GSC, or O1S3H, 
April Gy 1930, he wust have known that he meeded it /pril 7, 1950. 
Tf Sandler's testimony that plaintirr could heve resliszed the full

Sy 1955, were true, what reasonable can eould or would believe that 
imeteed of turning it im fer needed each he weuld have trated it in

We find no merit in defendant's contention anh are of 
the opinion that every significant feet im the reverd aupperts 
plaintiff's theory that both the subscription agreement ané the 
note were signed by him when he wee repaid ©1535 on eccownt of

of these plesdinga. We de mot deem it neceusary to diveuse the 
theory on which the court acted, or the prepriety or correctness 
of his ruling, inasmuch en these decuments aprenr fully in the 
record, have been carefully examined by we and have received eur 
ceneiceration te the anme extent es if they hed been admitted in 
evidence. : 

Plaintiff contends that 211 of theae offered plendings, 
excluded by the trial court, cantained admissiens by dofendant 
that are competent end revelans te thie couse, and we, therefore, 
eet forth in substenee the pertinent sliegeticna ef ene of them, 
@s amended bill of complaint filec by Jeremiah ©. Meraw, ax his 
wife, against “tut et 2l., in the Superior court, Jume eh, 1928, 
as follows! 


. Mainants represent that on July 1,» 1925, they 
ewmneé certain Sisconsin property? that the defendants Gtut, 
cvned the property known ac 4715 Raiden Street, -hicege; 
thet Stut represented te orators thet the Halden Street 
property waa worth in eseeus ef $210,000 and was leased by 
a written lease to Peuchtwanger and “tephen iueszak at 
yearly rental of $22,0003 that the tenants were finaneiaily 
responsible; had paid their rent according to the lease fram 
Movember 28, 1924, to September 1, 19453 that ne cenceasions 
had been meade to said tenants, all of which representations 
were falee and were known by “tut to be foiac, and were mace 
for the purpose of inducing eratora te exchange their — 
Videeonsin property and execute and deliver their note for 
$4,000 for the Maiden ‘treet preperty: thet after the 

' exchange craters Ciscovered that the lease aforeanid was made 

; for the purpose of having the building ceceupied that 1% might 

be wold; that the lessees were in exit building as agents of 

. Stutg thet they had paid me rent under said lease from 

| Rovember 28, 1924, to March 15, 19253 that from March 15, 

i 1928, to September 1, 1925, they hed pais to Stut the net 

income from said building, lees operating expenses; thet in- 
atead of said property being worth $210,000, it wae worth not 
to exceed $160,002" 


The allegations of this amended bill are typical of the allegst ions 
as to Stut's fraudulent representations to NeGraw, cantained im all 
of the plendinge offered in evidenee, and we fail te discern what 

 pessible weight or foresee they add to the uncontradicted, undisputed 
evidence of plaintiff alreadyin the record to practically the some 


effect.

Tt io mot contended, nor even intimated, there waa any 
intention on the pert of defendant to cither deceive er defraud 
plainsiff. 

Tymamuch ag plaintiff testified that the Valuation of 
$209,000 placed upon the property by defendant wae merely his 
opinion as to its velue, and that ne agrechen: was made by defendant 
te give her anything representing her one gusrter interest in the 
Property except the certificate for 125 shares ef eteek im the builde 
ing corporation, «hich ahe accepted, it ig unnecessary to discuss 
either of these matters. 

Plaintiif's major contention is that defendant had not 
thoreughly investigated the lease in question but relied aclely 
upon Otut's representations te him, which subsequently proved te 
be fxlee, and thet hig lack of knowleége of the frete, which he 
stated to her, concerning the lease, established seienter in iti, 
and therefore rendered him liable for damages resulting te her by 
Teason of the tranenction. 

Lefendant's theery is that there was properly me ground 
Giselosed by the facts presented for an action of fraud smi deceit, 

and that the baste elements vitel toc euch an action were not shown. 

Plaintiff iuelate thet the various Pleadinge filed in 

Other enuses by defendant, and offered in evidence wy her, show 





“tint defendant relied eelely upon “tut's statements to Aim as to 
the validity of the lease and the occupancy of the premises, and 
. Cefendant wae not warranted in making the statements which 

he made to plaintiff, based only on stut's statenente, but should 
made a fuller and further investigation. Ib is ouffiecions 
wer to atate that these plesd¢ings disecleve that falee otetee 

ts were made to him by Stut and that he relied upon them, but

lease by his lawyer and himself, ani their inmveetigation of all 
available sources of information. 

To warrant an actiom for dceeit i¢ is umiveraslly held 
that falee representations must have been knowingly mace with an 
intent to deceive. It is conceded by plaintiff that the state- 
mente made to her by defendant conesrnimg the lease were not made 
with kmowledge of their fsleity, and were not made with any actual 
intent to cheat or defraud her. However, 16 ia urged thet an 
intent to deceive will be imputed to ome whe maken positive and 
wequelified assertione, recklessly, withewt knowledge ef their 
truth for the purpose of inducing another to «act on them. Te bring 
this cause within this latter rule it would not only be necessary te 
show that defendent felsely stated az true that of which he head no 
mmowledges but it «ould be incumbent om plaintiff’ to chow further 
thas he so represented the matters as to incuce in her mind a belief 
he Was eptaking from actual knewledge of the uattere represented. 
The evidence eleorly demonstrates thet wach wasn not the fact. He 
acted throughout as an honest mam end wan himeelf muleied by the 
@eecit of Stut, whe was guilty of the omly fraud diccernible on thig 
record.  tefendent explored every source of informetion available, 
eecking the truth as te the Lease ami the condition of this property, 
and we ore aatiefied thet plaintiff wae fully stvised thet his state- 


; mente te her were based entirely om Hie investigntions 


It ie true that plaintiff invested im this property at 
éefendant'e selicitetion. I: is sleo true that statement« made 


‘by defendant te her concerning the lease were false. That these 


dtatements were fealee was not diacovered by either of them until 


: shortly after the decl wee clewed: ‘That the frauulent eharacter 
of the leases affected irjurtously the velue of the property le net

end he refused to sien the same}, the bill sufficiently shows 

that complainant is entitled to the injunetional relief os prayede 
In view of the entire allegations of the bill, we are of the 
opinion that the contention and argument are lacking in sukstantial 
merit, becaupe (1) it appears that Grigoleit remained in complain= 
ant's employ as en officer for about a year and one-helf after 

its entire ecspital steck had become the property of the Reynolds 
Co.3 (2) sufficient facts, as distinguished from conclusions, are 
not stated as to why he left complainant's employ; (3} the con+= 
templated five-year term of his employment had neariy expired when 
colpiainant's criginal bill was filed and the doctrine of lacheg 
should here be applied; (4) and it appears affirmatively from the 
28th paragraph of the bill that complainant is insolvent and it 
does not sufficient appear that complainant was able to perform 

ts pert cf an employment contract with Grigoleit. 

Nor, in our opinion, can the bil) be maintained, or the 
injunctional relief as prayed be granted, under the entire allegations 
of the bill, on the theory that it is one to restrain unfair com= 
petition by Grigoleit or the cefendant corporation, the Grigoleit 
Company. It affirmatively appearing in said 28th paragreph of the 
bill that complainant is insolvent and "is not now engaging in any 
business except the holding of the aforesaid patents," it is difficult 
to perceive how Grigoleit or the Grigoleit Coe ean be considered as 
being engaged in unfair competition with complainants 

Our conelusion is that the circuit court did not err 
in entering the order or deeree in question, sustaining the general 


demurrer to complainant's seeond amended bill and dismissing said 
bill for want of equity. Accordingly the order or decree is affirmede

entered as above stated on March 16, 1933. | 
faid additional affidavits are contained in the bill of 
exceptions, The salient allegations ef defendant's affidavit are 
that “Zvelyn Cerny, the perch who it is alleged signed « registry 
reeeipt for a letter addressed to thie cefendent by pleintifets 
StiCrneys wee sever pt any $i time Big seoxetary wor employed by him 
in any mennerg” that neither éuring January, 1932) Her at any 
other times, was she in charge of defendant's office or working 
therein; that defendant RéVer Feeeived or say said ela imed regige 
tered letters and that he “never aS any time mode any admission 
that he Bad used the language attributed to him in the devlaration.” 
in Hruby's affidavit, while emitting that he appeared ag defendant "5 
attorney “before the county court," he alieged that he “newer at any 
time told plaintiff or amy ome else that the judguwnt in this ease 
would be wettled and adjusted.” In Srowa's affidevit he clieged 
that “sometime im the latter part of the yeor 1931," he was prenens 
ai & conversation between plaintiff? and defendant im the city hall 
at Berwyn; that he heard plointirr ony to defendant thet he (laine 
tiff) "wes grateful to defendont for what defendant had done for hig 
in commection with reinetating him (pleintiff) as Felice Hagistrate, 
that he expected mot to run agein when his term expired, thet he 
would help defendant gvin the office ef Police Hogiletrates, thet 
Be_woulé not prosecute tho suit he had filed but would diomies tt, 
that he would forget ali that had securred during the eompaign, and 
‘hat Broucek (defendant) should do Likewise." 

After a eareful considorstion ef the present reeerd ey 
have reached the conclusion that the court erred in refusing on 
April 7, 1933, te grant defendant's motion to set aside said 8% parte 
judgment fer 35,000, entered agninat defendant on March lé,y 1934.

“Gentlemens 

‘a few days ago you left with me a letter dated July 
ll, 1952) adcregeed to yourselves with referenee to the premises 
known as 3216 Lawrence <venué, whieh you are new eeeupying sa my 
tenant, and which letter you requested that I sten and return 
to yoUe 

“When you retained possession of the premises beyond 
the expiration of the original lease an¢ the extension thereof, 
i determined te treat you se a holdover tenant, and I am tal: 
thie opportunity of acvising you of my election se te regard yous 


“I shall, of courses continue te leek to you for the 
payment ef rental ae provided for by the lease anc extension for 


the balenee of the term. 
"Youre very truly, 
“Se Rogen® 
Xt is undisputed thet the letter of July 21 was signed by Raamasen, 
the secretary of defendant. 

It appeare, from the bill of exceptions, thet the trial 
court found fer defendant upon the theery that the agreement of 
April 21 *killed" the written lease and ereated a new agreement 
by the terms of which defendant “would hold aver for twe monthe 
without obligating itvelf te go further then the two monthas” That 
the court erred in so heldimg is clear, so plaineire contends, 
“the written agreement of <pril 21) 1939, was in Legal effeet an 
extenelon of the lease between the plaintiff and the defendants,” 
it was made before the expiration of the leases and the language 
used therein is plain and susceptible of but one constructions 
the leage Was te contimue in full force and effect, subjeet only 
te the mocifiestion thet tae term wis extended fox twe months. 

Ié is, of courses the law thas a landlord ani tenent may enter 
into an agreement whereby the terme of the original lease may 
be changed. In Le¥rieost ve Syadleys 192 Hasse 346, the original 
lease, dated May %, 1900, contained neither a covenant for a 





Fenewel nor an agreement fer an additional term at the election 
Of the legsee. Cx November 6» 1905, before the expiration of 
the term, the parties entered imte the following agreocment :

and gle private business wos closed. The trust deed and netes

it is defendent's ewntention thet the trust deed and

therefore the Gourt erred in direeting = Werdiet. The Supreme court 
im effeet seld tact thie was 5 cueetion of fact whieh sheuld heve

The trisi ¢ourt in the ¢see st ber held 2s 9% proposition 
of law thet “if plaintiff at the tise be semuired anid trust deed nete

the owmnerehip ef azid note sag in Gage “ark Buliding ond Loan Assoeiae~ 
tion, then the plaintiff did not then and there become on owner in 
aut Gourse.* This wie = Gorreet crevesition of inw ond evidenced 
the fact that the triei court took thie question inte considerstion 
in srriving st ite finding. 

On the other hand i$ cannet be guid that the defendant 
Company wat Sutirely «itheut feult in the trenesetion. It sutherized 
and directed Temala, its eseretecy, to segotiate the losn te Seltes 
and to take the trust deed in sie own mane as trustes. ‘The orineipal 
and soupon notes were aside payable to the asker ond endersed in blank, 
and sonteined no reference to the trust deed. Fisintiff held the doeu- 
ments in tis own voesession in hie aafety deposit bex for a considereble 
period of tias, during which s¢ salleeted ane of the saupon notes.

Municipel Gourt of Yhieage finding the defendant evilty of pandering

KR. PRESIDING JUSTICR RATCHKTT 
DELIVERED Ti OPTERION OF THE COURT, 


Plaintiffs sued in an action ef contract for the purdhace 
price as agreed of « speelally constructed gathering magiine manue 
factured for defendant under the terme of a written contract dated 
Jaly 31, 1928. In their statement of claim they set up the written 
eontract verbatin, and averred that the machine was constructed in 
conforsity with ite terme and wae delivered te defendant September 
7, 1985, and aceected by it; that defendant used the machine fer 
some months tut refused to pay for it as agreed, 

The affidavit of merite admite the execution of the contract 
and the delivery of the machine on Geptesber 7, 1926, (seven days 
later than the time named in the contract), but alleges that the 
machine was defective and failed to perform the werk for whieh it 7 
was deeigned; that plaintiffs attempted to repair the same but were 
unable to make it comply with the terme of the contract; that de- 
fendant then tendered it back, but that piaintiffe refused te ace 
gent it, whereupon defeniant stored it in a public warehouse and 
notified plaintiffe of ite aetion. ‘The affidavit denied that any- 
thing wae due, 

There was a trial by jury and a werdict fer plaintiffs in 
the sum of $2000 (the gontract price of the machine), upon which 
the court, everruling motions fer a new trial and in arrest, entered 


Sadgment, to reverse whieh defendant sued out this writ of errer. 


Defendant argues that the verdict is contrary te the manifest

weight of the evidence; that the court erred in its ruling on the 
aduiesion and rejection of evidense, in denying the motion of de- 
fendant te declare a sistrial, im refusing to give inetructions 
@ubmitted by defendant and in refueling te mark certain eritten 
instructions submitted by defendant ae “given” or “refused,” as 
Yeguired by seetion 74 af chap, 110 ef Cabill's Tll+ Kev. Siete, 1999. 

As to thie lsat peint it is sufficient te ray that tke 
record discloses that the court instructed the fury erally secerd- 
ing to the oraeties ef the Hunicipsl court in thet resgest, and 
that no objestion was made or exeeotion taken to the same ae 
given nor request wade by defendant fer further oral instruetiens, 
Further, an exacinatlon of the record indicates that the written 
instructions wiich appear thorein vere never in fact presented te 
the trial judge at all. There wae a request in writing at the 
close of all the evidenee for an instructed verdict fer defendant, 
whieh was denied, Apparentiy neither the court ner spvesing 
eounsel was ever given the oopertuniiy te see the sileged written 
inetruetions tendered, Such being the state of the reeerd, the 
Point is wholly witheut merit. 

The peint urged aa to the dtnisai of the motion for the 
withdrawal of a juror and for a deciaration ef a mistrial is sise 
witheut merit, The ground for the motion was an answer meade by 
witness Jenn Condon, a former empleyee of defendant, whe had 
charge of the machine during the time it wae used by defendant. 
Condon's evidence sheuld have been preduced as a part of plain- 
tiffe’ original case, but the court in the exereise of ite dis- 
eretion permitted his to testify in rebuttal. His testineny was 
very favorable to plaintiffs, and he was subjected to a severe 
exrose exemination, in the course of which soungel ror defendant 
guestioned him as follews:

CASO NS Pea TENE hate me te ells expebatelte’ ‘pee 
wet ylno tie ,of 4A fet et ahibh ,ome pero ob 






Ben Hithelz was the secretary of defendant, ond the anewer was an 
accusation that he tad tried to bribe tne witness. Defendant made 
a motion to strike out the anewer, and the court erdered that the 
last part of it should be etricken as mot respensive., Defendant 
then made its motion to vltairay a juror and to declare a mistrial, 
which was denied. As & watter of Tast, upon re-examination the 
witnees Cendon, without objection by defendant, teztified in detail 
to an interview with Rithele, in which KRithols offored witness 
money for faverable testimeny and suggeztsd that he might go out of 
town te avoid testifying. Defendant cress-exacined Condon as to 
thia conversation, and Benjasin Hithelaz in surrebuttal testifbed, 
denying that any such conversation took plaee. Prebably the 
testisony had much influsnee upon tie verdict of the jury, but the 
conversation was material and relevant, and it was for the jury to 
pass upon the facts. 

Pisintiffes offered evidence tending te shew that «et the 
time the machine wae delivered te defendant a one-half horse-pewer 
moter was attached therete; that the power furnished by this motot 
was ineulficient and wae the cause of the failure of the machine te 
do the work as previded by the contract; that plaintiffs thereupon 
purchased and delivered a three horse-power motor with a speed ree 
ducer, ani that when this waa attached the maguine functioned 
properly. it is urged that this evidense wae inadwiseible upon 
the theery that 1% waried the terme of the written esontract. The 
eontract said nothing whatever about what kind of moter sheuld be 
atteched to the machine, aud the transaction with reference to the 
substitution of motors ocourred Leng after the execution of the 
contract and after the aachiine was delivered. The admission of 
this evidence 414 met viclate the rule againet receiving parol 


evidense to vary the terme of the written eontract, since the 


transaction was not prier te or gontenporaneous with the making

Benjamin hithelz, e@ecretary ef defeniant corveration and 
aleo a lawyer, drew this centract with suggestions from /. 
Backetrom. vefeniant produced many witnesses, for the sest part 
ite own saployees, “ho tezgititied to facts tending te shew that the 
machine did net *uiriai the veguirements ubove stated, The tes- 
timony of ¥. Baskatrom, whe had charge of the matter fer plain- 
tiffs, was to the effect, a5 already stated, that when the msehine 
wae Tiret delivered a one-huil serse-gewer motor waa aiteoahed 
weich sik /attisient, aud that wneu the thres heree-power whick he 
gupriied was attached ith a speed reducer the machine worked in 
euch a way as te ecompls vith all the requirenente of the sontract, 
He testifies in evukstance that the machine wae declared te be 
aatisfactory; that he was promised payagent by Rithels, and that 
it wae only after frequent requests fer the purehase priee, and as 
late ae February of the following year, that the defense was 
raise’ which was interpoved at the trial. Jie is correborated by 
the testimony of John Condon, at the time ef the trial empleyed 
ae manager ef the multigraph devarteent of Sears, Roehuek & Game 
pany, and whe had werked for defendant from Gepteaher 20, 1926, te 
Boveuber 15, 1924, hen he left ite expleyuent. 

Condom says that when the meciine wae delivered he was put 
in charge of it by Ben Kithela; that when the ewiteh was turned on 
the machine would net run; thai 14 was impossible to run it with 
the moter that was hooked up with it; that they (Backetrom, Yilliam 
Deckert and the witness) dismantled the macsine te see whether 
there was anything wreng with the meter, or whether any scart wae 


binding; that they found thet the parte moved frecly and decided to 


put a three horse-pover moter on the machine; that this was done and 


& *peed reducer put om; tat the maghine ran and that the result 


of the teste wae omtirely satisfeetery; that the machine was run 


approezinately two monthe until the work of the season was Soup] eted.

William Deckert (who at the tine ef the trial wee in buele 
neaes for himeelf but whe in Sentember, 1924, was eupleyed hy de- 
fendant and had werked for it or for véeracne aasociated with it 
for nearly eight years) testified that im the fall of 1928 he was 
ferewan ef defendant snd took care of Gli the ganufacturing machinery 
and mechanical werk, and that witha @ Litthe hein from Conden he made 
the model which wae furnished b) defendant aid by which the machine 
was constructed, He corroborated ¥, Hecketrom with reference te the 
substitution of a three borte-porer apter for the ont-half horse- 
power motor, and eald that the use of the one-half horee-power 
meter ae a mistake; that «hen he found the one-half herree-porer 
moter would not work he called backatrom on the ‘ohene and that 
Hacketrom cane to defendant's olace and put on the aa. P. motor with 
a ageed reducer, after whick the machine ran and wart operated, he 
thougit, about Five days after delivery. He alse said that the uotor 
was tesporarily cennseted with an cla wire lying there so that it 
was net povsible te get out the ao HR. P. Roy thet the eleetrie Line 
wae overiouded and could not give the power needed; toast when gurrie 
eient power wae furnished the machine would wake trem $80 io 82 reve- 
lutions per ainute. i@ enw Condos rum the mnenine Per about two 
monthe, and he neticed Sovak yunning the maghine after Cendan Left. 

On the other hand, Frank Deckert, who Agseribea hiws¢if a8 @ 
teolmaker, and Wovak testify that there were a1] kinds of trouble 
with the machine. Ne says, *“Sonetines it was vorking; sometimes 
they got eards out of there, tometimee they dif net get any at all. 
Semnetiner @ half a dozen in one. i knew that the machine wae sup 
posed to knock out thirty earde at one time, it 414 not knock out 
thirty eards, not all the time.” His testimony a to the precise 
time, waieh wae important, was quite indefinite.

testified that the carde never cang/right fros the machine; reme- 


times there would be thirteen carda to a set, sometinea thirty, 
sonetiner forty, ond sometimes they would alli ecue and buneh up on 
the belt so they eould net be used; thut ehe repertied te hovak that 
the machine wea out of order but they 414 not wey any attention 

to wheat Bovak did about it. Gre eays they worked on the machine 
and it would mot go; that they had te hire 75 girle toe do tne work

taiked the case over «ith Nithels, snd she said Ae teld her that 
all she had to do wae te teli the truth, Some sight er nine girls 
employed at the place gave siailar testiaeny, which we shail net 
undertake to disouss in detail. 

Benjanin Kitholz testified sentradicting the testimeny ef 
Backstrom at every point, se identified alleged eouies of lettere 
whien hie stenographer teetified she sent on September 15, October 
2 amd GOetober 12, 1928, im substance informing slaintiifs that the 
machine was wholly unsatisfactory. settere dated February 4, Mareh 
7, and September 14, 19%, Yacketrom said were received, but denied 
that the other letters were ever received by gialntiffres. 


Fitheut diseusaing ali the evidence tr detalii, it may be 


summed up by asying thet several witnesses wuat have testified cither 


falsely or without knowledge. Delendunt argues that the preponder 
anee of the evidence ig in ite favor becauge it enlled a larger 
auniber of witnesses, Ye have, however, often etated that this 
court does net count evidence but weighe 1t. Ae 2 matter of feet, 
Cendon and William Deckert were two withessen whe were apparently 
finaneially disinterestéd «id whe had complete knowledge of what 
trangpired., If the testimony of Hithels ie true (lawyer se he was) 
it seene highly prebsable that upem rejecting the machine in 
feptemder (if he 444 vredjeet it) he weuld have done we in a manner 


that could have left no doubt of the fact, The eviderice here tends

Shortly eftor the death of Jay Fieming Jones, presidert ef The 
Lomax Co., J. A. Lomax organized a eampariy known ag Drinke, Ine., 
and used the office formerly eceuvied by Jone in sommection with 
it. By reason of this organization business was diverted from 

the Lemax Co. of Delaware ta thet ef Drinks, Ine. Drinke, Ine, 
continued to use the premises of the Delaware cowpany far the 
conduet of businass and the directors of that eempany inetrueted 
J. A. Lowax to resove Drinks, ine., from the pramiaeg, Decanter 
1G, 1952, defendants filed with the ‘seretary of State of Tliineis 
an application for the incorporation of o company to be known aa 
The Lomax Co. for the purpose of wanufacturing and selling bever~ 
ages, January 20, 1933, the Seeretery of State ef Tahineis teeued a 
certificate of incerrerstien to that conpany. The Delaware ecorsera- 
tion falled to pay ite franeuice tax wolech was due July 1, 1938, end 
for this reagon ite lieeies te dc business in lLlinéis was revoked, 
Defendants knew this fact and thereupon applied te the Secretary of 
State to be ineorperated under that mame, and a eartifieate ef ine 
corseration was issued to them. Subsequently the Delawere company 
paid ite franchize tax ani penalties and was restored te good atande 
ing. This action by defendants for the incorvoratien of a company 
te use the werd “Lemax” was in furtherance of their plan to Eee a Da 
priate the business of complainants. 

The master's report alee finds that a s.atenent on the label 
used by The Lomax Co. of Geleware aud ite predecessora thet Lomax 
Pepsin Ginger Ale ia ande from pure Jamaica ginger combined with 
pepsin and aromatics ie untrue, since pepsin ie met used af on ine 
gredient but pure Jamaica ginger foot in small quantities wae used 
instead; and other eimilar statements uven its labels were net

and that an erdinary family gurname wae manifestiy incapable ef

evidence indicates that these transactions were had at a time when 
the principal defendant was the manager sid in eonircl ef the 
plaintiff corporaticn, and he and the defendants who have aeted 
with him are hardly in 2 position to set it up. Further, the sale 
of these articles is not shown to save been directly eenneeted vith 
the subject matter ef this Litigation, 

Upon the controlling issue in tiie ease, namely, that of 
the fraudulent intention amd conduct of these adstendanta, the 
proof in the record eustaines the findisg of the esurt. 

The only serious doubt we entertain upon thie record con- 
e@rns whether the a@eeres should aave granted to counlasinante the 
relief te which they rere entitled witheut making the injunetion 
against the use of their own name absolute. Upon reiéearing a 
majority of the ecurt - the writer mot concurring « hold that the 
deeree should be medified so as te allow the defendants to engage 
in the beverage businese, either as individuals, a scorseration, or 
ag 4 partnership, to ewploy avy and ail servante necessary to cen- 
duct the business, and te do any and all acte incidental to tae 
conduct ef the business go lesg as their labels, advertizing and 
other printed matter affirmativeiy indicate te prospective customers 
that their ereducte are set manufactured or seld by cowmslainants 
or either of them, or their predecessors. the modification should be

wherein defendant promised to pay to the aduindetrator of Josephine 
Kewton upon her death tae sum of 9000, wae issued im Tolede, Ohio, 
December 1, 1928. re. hewton died September 29, 1930. The poliey 
provided that if it shewld lapse for cen-epaynent of premium and if 
net more than two years of prewiumg were due end unpaid, it might ve 
revived upon payment ef all arresare “and the presentation of evi- 
dence satisfactory to the company of the ineurability of the insured." 

The defendant agrerted that the soliey had iapsed fer none 
payment of premiume and was not in feree when the insured died; 
that there was an attemst, by fraud and misrepresentation, to have 
the policy reinstated; that it was oot reinatated, and the prenium 
fer the reinetatesent was tendered back to plaintiff and refused 
by hin. 

Richard Sewton and Josephine Sewton, residing in Chicago, 
were divorced in 1927, and Jeseehine thereupon took us her resie

defendant, whose home office is in Hew York City; she paid the

davis says that at this interview be did ast Bnew that tre, 
Rose wae not Jeseshine bewten; that the foliowing day, beenuse of 
gome thinge which aroused hie suspicions, he want to the neighbere 
hood im Telede where these people lived and apparently then Learned 
that the woman who signe’ the application was not Josephine Kewton 
tut was her eister, Rrs. Kona, 

Mra. Rees testified, contradicting Davie’ version of «hat 
happened. Ghe says she informed Davis that she game te pay her 
siater's insurance « Joveshine hewton's; that Oavis said, “Hew is 
Kra.Bewtont"® that she replied, “re, hevten iantt so well * * she 
ie eick in bed,* and that thereupon Davie said, “All right,” and 
teld her to sign ineured's name on tae revival application. The 
ineured died September 29th foliewing the operation. 

October 3rd plaintiff filed a elaim en the policy with preef 
of death with a dr. Warrington, an agent for defendant in Chicage; 
Barrington told seleintiff te ¢all back in about teelve daya; that 
when he called at this time he was tol¢ mething Kad been heard from 
defendant; Oetober 28th he again enlied on Harrington and was then 
tola the coupany would not pay under the purtey, and Harrington 
tendered te plaintiff « refund of tie premium pald en the applieee 
tien for revival, which plaintitf refused. 

If Davie’ testimony was true there was obviously a Traud 
attempted by the posing ef kre. Hose ae the insured, fosephine 
Bewten. In such a eaee vlieintiff eould net recover, Hangook y. 





303 711. 66. Piszintiff argues, however, that 
the jury was justified in secenting Bre, Aose' version, and that 
when Davis aecepted the tendered preadum and defendant teok no 
action thereon until Geteber 28th, when it refused payment on the 


polloy, defendant waived any right te claim that the policy had not 


been revived and waa not in foree ana effect at the time ef the

There have bee many gasee touciing waiver by an agert of 
an ineurance company, but moat of them laivolve the question ef the 
payment of « premium some ilitle time after the dat¢ of payment 
etated in the pelicy, in such cases, waere the custom has been 
for am sgent te receive premiume a fee daye after the due date, 
the company will be Held te Bave waived ite right te declare a

In the present esse we aave a policy, admbttediy lapsed, 

whieh there is an attexpt te revive. Ey the terme ef the policy 
the revival say be accomplished upon the presentation of satiaface« 
tory evidence te the company of the ineurability of the inwured; 
the receipt given for the arrears ef premiums expreasiy states that 
this te e tenter and the eccupany ascumes no obligationa under the 
policy until the epplication for revival has been approved by the 
company; the revival apolicatios is upon the esnditien that the 
ineured has not been sick, affiieted with any disease or treated 
by any physician since the solicy was issued. But it is argued tha t 
Davis, the agent ef defendant, and tue defendant, by reeeiving and 
retaining the presmiume for a iine, waived compliance with these 
conditicnes, Among the many cases touching the subject of vaiver, 
under similar circametances, one of the test statements is Pound 
in the onee of Ferrero v. knisits of Security, 209 [11. 476, where 
the court said: 
“A waiver is the intestienal relinquisehment ef = known right, and 
there must be beth knowledge ef the existence of the right and the

frie element of knowledge of 11 the facte om the part of the par- 
gon glaimed te have waived o@ right ie Aeid essential in sii of the 
decided easen whleh we have seen, 

Plaintiff in hie brief repestedly asserts that Davia and 
defentant knew all the faots as to the insured’s physical condition 
The record before ue dees net sagoort thia. At the tine ra. fees 
interviewed Davis, Josephine Newton ned undergone a majer operation 
threatening her Life, which, with wo falling heart, rewuited in her 
death within a few days, re. Kesa, according to hor teatineny, 
told Davis enly that “Hrs, Sevten is siek in bed.” This ie far 
from tuparting to Davie oll tke facts ae toe the condition ef the 
ineured, It is inconetiveble that if intend, Gabe that the ine 
sured was in facet on her death bed that the request for revival of 
the polley would have been approved. According to this reeord, 
the firet time the defendant company knew all the faete waa then 
the proofs of claim were reeeived by it, which wae some time in 
Getober, Under such cirdumeatanees the 4efendant cannet be said te 
heave waived ite right te withheld syoreval of the application for 
revival. 

The inatraetions  iven the jury were very misleading. Une 
attempted to define the duties ef a general agent, indicating that 
Davie had power to waive conditiona in the policy. Wurther, that 
if the jury should find that Davie saecested paynents of preaiums 
on the soliey ef Joseriine Newton and *that esld general agent had, 
or then and there received, knowledge as to the com@ition of 


tesephine Hewton's health,* and if he accepted payment of presiume

S7O44 BR, PREGLIDING JUSTICH BATCHETT DISSENT Ing, 


This cause wae cenaglidated in this ceurt with Bo. 37045, 
and I agree with the suggestion of the eajority epinien that if 
agein tried the same should be conselidated in the trial sourt. 
The parties, the lesues and the material evidence in beth cases 
are in substance the same, i do uel agret with the majority of 
the court that the werdicts of the twe Juries vho sat in these 
cases are manifestly against the evidence, but 1 do not reet my 
aiseent upen that point selene. 

Theee eaees were of the fourth clase in the Bunieipal 
court where pleadings ere set required, and eseh gape is whatever 
the evidence makes 1t. Sdeerton v. C.F, 2. & ?. Ry. 0 
Till. 321; Bruner vy. Grand Tramk Sestern Ry, So., 319 Til. 421, 


Assuming, a8 the opinion ef the court seeme te indicate, that 





Riehard Newton and kre, KRoas perpetrated a fraud en the insurance 
company through Mre. Koes posing and repreesemting herself te be 
in fact Josephine Newton, I think the fury under the evidence 
eould reasonably find that the forfelture of each of the policies 
was thereafter waived. Davie teatifice that he reperted the facte 
ag to the traneaction of Septeaber ROth in writing te defendant 
company at ite office in Telede en the day after ite sceurrence, 
hamely, September 21, 1930. Defendant then muet be Keld te have 
known from that date thet Joaeshine kewton was in the hoepital at 
Teledo, Ohio, and that up te the time she died she could have 
been reached there. The «evidence alao showe thet its agent knew 
the home adiress of her family in that city. Se far ae this record 
discloses the first resudiation of the transaetion was 37 days 
thereafter, There ie not a scintilla of evidence in the reeerd 


that defendant during all that time tesk any atepa vhatever te 


return the premium en these policies which ite agent nad accenoted,

In theese days when information is apeedily transmitted by madl and 
telegraph and telerhone, I think the jury could reaeonably find 
that the delay wae unteasonable, 

» 200 Thi. 359, 





it was held that the acceptance of preefe ef death after full 
knowledge szewed an Intention en the part ef defendant te waive 
the alleged ferfelture, hat waiver may be based upen Laferwatien 
gives te an agent autheriszed to solicit buginess wae held in a 
sult based on a fire insurance contract in Phenix Fire ins, Us. 

NN. Grove, #215 111. S09. ‘che same rule wae aain ansiied to a 


Life insurance policy by toe third division ef thie court in Agam 





be,, 213 11). App. 54, in an opinion 
delivered by #r., dustice O'Cennor, Yaese canes in my apinion exe 
preee the law apolicatle (sot alone to ineuraice policies bat te 
all eomtracts) that « defendant whe wishes te dileevew a traneac- 
tion on the ground of fraud must aot vith the uteest preaptners. 
There is a wealth ef authority to that effeet walieh I deem it une 
neceasary te review at length. The controlling question, aa = 
see it, is one of waiver, ond not whether the contract was reine 
atated in sonfermity with (ite own provielons. There is ne doubt 
that Davie wae the sgent of the defendant company, and if there 
were any dcubt in that respeot it ia made immaterial by bie 
uncontradicted evidence that the Toledo eifice of the defendant 
company was fully informed of the whole tranesetion on Gepteaber 
fist. 

The prevailing opinion make#e much of alleged errere in the 
inetructione, An examination dincleses, however, that the eourt 
instructed the jury orally and that there was no speeifie objection

eases there is a general objection wiich under that praectiee ia 
wholly inauffielent., Rule 6 of the Kumicipsi court, of whien we 
take judicial notice, requires that ebiectioans to inetructiona suet 
be meade specific. The brief of defendent dasere not point eut any 
perticuler ineatraction which is said te be erronesus, Yhis ie 
supplied by the opinion ef the court which plaintiff has mot psd 
the envertunity te see or disease, and we are therefore without 
the benefit of his observations thereon. At any rate, the ageney 
of Davie wae more extensive than that of the agent whese authority 
was questioned in Germania Life ins, Co. v, Boehier, 165 111. 2938, 
where the defeniant esmoany wae held liabie. As I understand it, 
a forfeiture is rightly odieus and should never be favored by 


the courte, Umited States Life ins. Co, v. Rees, 159 Lil. 476. 


Yor these, as well as cther reasene, I dissent,

Life of Iesephine Kewton, 

We have this day flied an opinion in ease Ko. $7044, in» 
volving the same parties, where 4 cisller elein wae sada usen 
another relicy iesued by the d4efendent comeany unen the life of

Pleintiff, a resident of Chicago, waa divereed from Joza~

and tue payment to the «gent of any much arresre shall be at the 
sole riek of the sereon making such payment and shall net be 
eredited as & payment upon the policy, whether reecipt be given 

for such payment or not." it was alee provided thet if the policy 
begame void in econgeequence ef nonesayment of premiums 14 might be 
revived, 1f not more than fifty-twe premiums are dus, “upen payment 
ef all arreare and the presentation of evidence satiefactery te the 
company of the acund Besith of the insured." Thue, when the ate 
tempt was made by plaintiff te have the policy revived it had 
already lapsed for seme months past, subject, hewever, to rewiwal 
if the insured complied with the conditions uumed in the policy. 

On the evening ef September BC, 1930, plaintiif, with Mre.

said at that meeting concerning the condition of Mre, Rewton's 
health, thus direcstiy centradicting pleintiff's testimeny in this 
respect. 

Mre. Davie, wife of Viliiam Davis, sho was present at the 
interview the evening of September 80th, testified that when kre, 
Reas came in she introduced plaintiff, er. Kewton, to Br. Davis as 
her husband; the witness Heard So cenvereation to the effet that 
ira. Kewton was aick in the hespitel; she eaid tuat tae parties 
were present in their \ome about ten or ifteen minutes, 

Plaintiff testified that Josephine Lewton died in Telede, 
Ohio, September 29, 1930; that about October 3rd be surrendered 
the policy sith preef ef death, and the receipt, to kr. Harrington, 
defendant's agent in Chicaze, who tel4d plainti?Y’ that in eboat twe 
weeks he, Harrington, «ould notify him; slaintiff called again at 
Harrington's office Setober 24th and was told that the company re~ 
fused to pay wren the policy, and the revival premium galid was 
tendered to plaintiff, whe refused it. 

fhie record ie barren of any preef as to what caused the 
death of Ere. Revton. The witnesses and the attorneys refer te 
the proofs of death whieh were introduced in evidenee in the other 
ease, ko. 37044, but no proof of death or ¢laivant's statenent is 
in the present record, 

Reduced te ite simplest eleucits, ani cemeidering enly the 
evidence in the present record, we Rave & Cage where, through 
fraud and misresresentation, an agent of the defendant was induced 
to accept premiums te revive a lapsed poliey while the insured ras 
in a hospital and died shertly thereafter, 

fhe express prevision ef the selicy was, that the agent had 
no suthority te reinstate a lapsed poliey and that any payment wade 
to an agent should be at the sole risk ef tne person making the 


Payment and ehould set be eredited az a payment upen the policy,

except ae evidenced by the signature of the prealdent or secretary 
of defendant, Davie therefere had ne perer to reinstate the poliey. 
Koreover, the ocolicy provided, #4 one of the eonditiona of 
revival, that evidence of the sound health ef the insured must be

66, a misreorésentation wae defined as « statesent of something as a 
fact whiech ia untrue and material te the risa, the persen waking the 
statement knowing it to be untrue, in ai sttepet te deceive. This 
is applicable to the present onse, 

Plaintiff argues tiat defendunt, by net acting premptly 
after Davis paid in the money received by him ta the Telede affice 
and reported the conditions, «sived the conditiens fer revival named 
in the policy. nme sanewer te thie is the fact that the address of 
Plaintiff wae unknown to the Telede offier and that attempts te 
aseertain it failed, ke elaim on tne poiiey wae made through the 
isauing office at Toledo, but was made threugh a Chicage office 
which knew nothing about the tranesction. Shen the claim reached 
ew York from Chicago it is reasonable te ansume that the New York 
office would weuke an investigation a9 io the facts through the 
Toledo office. Under such circumstances we cannot concede that eo 
great a period of time elapsed between the date plaintiff filed his 
@laim and the date when he was inforeed that the eoupany refused te 
Pay upon the polley ae to axeunt to a waiver of defendant's right to 
refuse to approve the revival ef the pelicy. 

On the evening of September 20th Davis gave « receipt for 
the revival of the poliey involved in ease io. 37044, and alee o 
revival application in eomnection with that policy. Beth of these 
decusente are in the present reeord, The court inetrueted the jury 


that they had ne direet bearing upon the iseuer in this case and

were edmitted only for the purrese of explaining what took place 
at thie interview in Mr. Davia’ heme, Davie testified that it was 
not necessary te have mere than one applicatien for revivhl, as 
the save examination that would de te revive one policy veuld 
revive the other pelley. in ¢taer words, the one application was 
understoed to apply te both selieles, ae that the inetruetien ef 
the ecurt in tule respeot wae incorrest. 

The inatructions were galculatsd te mislead the jury in 
implying that Devie wus a general agent, having autherity te waive 
conditions in the peliey, and kad or showld heve had Enewledge as 
to the condition ef Josephine Xewton's health, oid that ith euch 
knowledge he secepted payment of premiuws in afrears and trane- 
ferred the same to the defendsnt company, whe retained the enne; 
that if the jury should «6 find, then “as a emitter of Low it sheuld 
find the iesues for the plaintif?Y,* Ve find ne instructions refer- 
ring to or teuching upen the slileged impereonution of the insured 
by her alater ané the nisresresestation as te the facts ef the ine 
eured'w health, 

For the reasons that the verdict is againot the sanifeet 
Weight of the evidence, tint the verdict sheuld have been for the 
defendant, and that the instructions tended te mislead the Jury, 
the judgment ie reversed and the cause remanded, 

if there should be snether trial, these cases, nwebered 
$7044 and 537046 in thie court, sheuld be consolidated in the trial 
eourt for hearing so that there may be omly one trial.

Plaintiff, tringing a section in assuepelit upen a pramis-

for $526.25, from whieh defendant apneals. 

The note eued on was one of a series executed by defendant

trust deed prohibite any bomdhelder bringing sny sult at lew on any 
bond of coupon held by Kim, and that thie right is vested exelu- 
tively in the trustee, 

This is the familiar “Ho-Action”™ clause which the courts

BR. JUSTICE MeSUHELY DELIVEARD THE OFIHIGE OF TEE COURT. 


By this whit ef errer the defwidant seeke the reversal of a 
Judgment in the Criminal court finding kim guilty ef nensupnert of 
hide wife and ordering him te pay $7 a week to her, 

Defendant was ehargeda with Raving vielated tha statute 
(Griminal Code) Chap. 38, para. &, see. 1, which provides: *That 
every person whe shall, without any reascaable cause, negieet or 
refuse te provide for the supvert or maintenance of hie wife, said 
wile being in dentitate or in necensitous cirscussianees, *** shell 
be deemed guilty of a mesdemennor *." The siatute ales provides 
that when a fine is imposed it say be directed by the eourt te be 
paid, in whole or in gart, to the wife for a term not exereding 
ene year. Para. 5, see, i, Illinois Statutes {Gahili). 

Like any other criminal ease, befere « conviction can stand 
in thie case the evidenee must preve the guilt of the defendant bee 
yond # reasonnble doubt. This case was tried by the court, and we 
hold that the evidence failed te mest the required degree of ereef.

1898; they had ne children, but two nieces of defendant Lived with 
them from childhoed at the residence erned by defendant in Blue

that Ramie wae suffering from tuberquicnsie en September Sth. 

it was a miarepresentation fer the inewred to deny that 
ghe had resided withis the past year with any peraon auffering 
from consumption, an¢ thai ease never had sty sister who had tabher~ 
gulosis. the eiater Aose, eho was four years older than liamde, 
resided i+ the same Home with her, wits their parenta. 

vounge: for plaintiffea arque that the word “attendea" by a 
puysicgian in the application does not mean a were galling at a 
aector's offiee for reilef from aome slight indissasition, elting 
eertain canes to this affect, Certainly « disgnesio ef tubereie-~ 
Sis was 4 sericus condition, and good faith required the disciasare 
ef the faet that she had been @xeminead and her iliness diagneaed 
ae tuberculosis. 

Moreover, the insurer dees not expeet the inaured te be 
the judge of whether or not her physical sendition is aericus, Tre 
ineurer has the right to knew whether the ineured has had cecaeion 
to corigult a physician fer any reason whatenever eo that the ine 
ourer might consult any physician eomsultea by the insured, This 


is the rule as applied in the reeent case of Peru i: 





Q.-, decided by the United States Sireult Ceurt of Ape 
pesis for the Seventh Cireuit, eaee bo. 4979. 





We ennnat agree with the apesertien that there is ne evi- 
denoe that the insured reaited with er even aaw her sicter Kose 
during the year preeeting the date of the epplicatien. asc we have 
already neted, they lived tagether in the same home, 

The brief? om behalf ef plaintiffs is mere ingenious than 
convineing, Ag Beamim Genweldi 414 notmake a truthful diselesure of 


the facte to the defendant eomeany, bat of the contrary wierepre- 


sented them by giving false anewers, 1t follows that thie Jadgment

the old event te Ser, 

in this court defendants argue that the old coat wag xe-~ 
eelved by defentants in pert payment for the new garment, ond 
deny any agreement to return it, 

The ease turns upon the eredibility of the wltmesees. The 
trial court heard them and is beiter suelified than we are to 
judge of their oredibility. %¢ cannet say that hie conelusion 
te accept the stery of the pladntirr and her wliness le manifestly 
againet the greater weight of ene evi¢genees. 

The judgment i# therffere affirmed, 


AFFIRMED,

ants filed their replication to the anewer of the defendants, 
¥ebruary 21st an order was antered upon motion of the complainants, 
with the consent of the corseration counsel, @lasissing the bill as 
to Joseph Kaloy and A. %, Jackson, clty ewployees. aren 6th come 
Plainante, by leave of court, snended their second amended bill. 
July 12, 1953, an order wae entered on metion of the couplainante 
suggesting the 4eath of cempiainant, Fred Geer, and aubsetituting 
Gladys Oper, a2 nie adminietrstrix. August 11, 1953, eouslainante 
moved for a temporary injuncticn and the defendants med@ a eoanter 
motien that the bill be diewiseed “for want of equity and jurin- 
diction in the Court," for the reasons set forth in derendante! 
angwer as mattere ef affirmative defense, The defendants’ motion 
Was pwllewed, the bill dismissed and tnis appeal followed. 

The procedure follewed in thie case, of disuiseing sam- 
Plainents' seeond amended bili after issue wae joined by defendants' 
anewver and plaintiff's reslication therete, is anomalous and is not 
to be apvreved. 

Defendants contend that thelr eral moetion to dismise the 
bill for want ef aquity and Yer lack of juriedisctieon was in legal 
effect a demurrer ore tempus. Sut tne inw is that a demurrer org 
Senus will not be aliewed unlees thers is a demurrer en record. 

1 Goas's Putertvaugh Ch. 71. 4 Pr., Tth ed., page 185. hile the 
eroceture was irreguler, we prefer ie deoide the questions on 
their merits. The matters alleged in the anewer are not to be 
considered, tut the enly question is whether the somplsinants 
state a cause of action in their bill of complaint. 

The allegations of tae bill, eo far as it ls necessary to 
state them, sre that complainants were members of the Chicago 
Seving Picture Machine Operatere'’ Union Leeal oc. 110, aid members 
of the International Allianee of Theatrical Giage Haployes and 
Moving Picture Kachine Operators of the United States and Canada,

the defendants in 1925, 1827 and 1932 esnducted unfsir elections so

moneye they had received in other official capacities, which be- 
longed te the union; thet in 1951 the grand jury of Cook county 
took cognizance of the defentants' wrengdoing and indicted some ef 
them; thet through the #rong?ful saete of the defendants a number of 
theaters «hich eaploeyed union men were wrongfully glossed, and in 
making this wrongful contest against the theater oxners defendants 
apent apvroximately $206,000 of the union's money; that defendants 
had falsely charged compisinantes and other meabers of the union 
with vielating certain sdctions of the conetitation and by-laws, 
and there was a purported hearing witneut notice te the agcused; 
that the charges made were baseless; that ot the Bearing certain 
menbers of the union were denied orepar representation; denied the 
ust of a eourt reverter; and denied the right to eresas exauine the 
witnesses tastifying agsinat then; that after such neerings def end- 
ants purported te enter judgawnt againet mexbera of the union, ime 
posing a fine of $6,006 against many of trem, and the leas ef 
voles and vete fer a period af tee years; that such mechere were 
fexied the right to appeal; ~ a11 contrary te the provisions of 
the conatitutien an’ the by-lawa of the uniene; that defendanta 
have threatened complainante and intimidated them because they 

are demanding their rignts under the conetitution and the by-laws, 
and that defendants, unleas restrained by an erder of eourt, will 
aseign or dispose of the assets of tie lecal union; that defentante 
have extravagantly ran the affaires of the union, having an overhead 
of over $75,000, while the income was only about $44,000; that de- 
fendanta voted themselves large salaries; thet defendant business 
manager Wasa in 1928 paid $228 a week, whieh tas later inecressed te 
$300 a week and atill later te $500 a week. Kany ether charges 

are made, but we de not refer te them here, the prayer of the 

bill was that certain of the pretended elections of the officers

election properly held; that the oretended Judgment and finer 
isaued ageinst the complainants ond ether mexbere of the unien be 
vacated and held for naught, that complainantea be restored te full 
memberehip im the unions, and that om aocounting be had, 

Defendants contend that the deerwe sheuld be affirmed te- 
cause there is no aliegation that complainants had been exealled 
from menbersiiip in the lecal union, amd that there is no allegation 
that comvlainanta were put en trial fer any offenses resulting in 
thelr expuleien, but that the thaory of compiainante, and their 
coungel's argument, is that eompiainante hove bean expelled Trem 
the loeal union and that the primary ebject of the bili te ts ree 
astere then to menberaghip. <A further contention of the defendantea 
is that a court of equity is without Jurisdiction te restore a 
person te a membership in « local unien, 

Whether mlilegations of the bill sre auffictlent te shew 
that sompisinante and other mevhers vere wrongfully exvelied from 
the union, they sre, we think, sufficient te shov that complainants 
and other marbers were excluded from the benefits of the union. 
They were unable to obtsin employment because of the sets of the 
officers of the anion; mary lliegsl permits, it ia charged, were 
deeued so that there were not places encug: to go around; charges 
are made of acts of defendants in intimidating comeiainente and 
other members so that Tair elections sould not be held, and further, 
that the moneys belonging to the union were wrongfully expended, 

Ve think these allegationa are gafficient te warrant the 
interposition of a eourt of equity. Hut counsel fer defendants say 
that there le no sliegation that complainants Bave exhausted their 
remedy within the Local or international union, amd that it is 
elementary one cannot go into eauity until he has exhausted hia 


rights within the union. Ye think it sufYicientiy apyeare from 


the allegations that an appeal would have been futile, i+ is

te endenver to fave the time eatended for the payagnt of the bal- 
ance due under the werigage. The evidence further shews that is 
Taly, 1951, #hem the defendant, Puskean, was negotiating for the 
Purchase of the property from Aarne he had o prospective gurehaser, 
Selma Siein, and that about Auguet lst, i931, when he wrete the 
Letter adiréesed to Aarne abeve mentioned, he fan net eertain 
whether the proposed asle by \im of tne property in suestion te 
Stein would be eongnusated, and he thereupon wrote the Letter ree 
queeting thet the time of payment of the balenee due be eatended. 
Baile the deed from Pusamas te Jtein la dated July 23, 1932, it 
was not recorded untili auguet 106, 1933, amd there is evidenae te 
the effect that 1% vas net delivered untll the laet mentioned date. 
There ia other evidence to the offeet tuat after the property was 
conveyed to Selma Stein abe sequred an agreewent fron slaintirr, 
the owner of the sete, and from Harne, one of the makers of the 
nete, thareby the time of paynent was extended siz months. There 
was mo written agreement preparnd but it is ageumed by tveryone, 
and the testimony shows, ihat the time ef payment wae se extended. 
Tae defendant contends that the lean, when it gas made in 
1926, the time of the execution of the notes and trust deed, was 
tainted with uweury begause the evidence shows pisintif? was paid 
16 per cent commission, snd defeidentogays that the lean was ultra 
wires siainiiff eoergeration. There is ne merit in these sontene 
tiens because the evidence shows that after the exeqution of the 
note and truet deed the eroperty waa conveyed subject te the morte 
gage which the grantees seaune¢ and agxeed te pay. In theae circum 
etances the question of usury is eut of the omee, and the question 
of ultye vires wae net in the caee begsuse such a question was net 
interposed as a defense, and the denial ef defendant's request, mode 


Hear the close of the case, Ter leave te sleed augh defense, was 


properly denied. it is certain tant we would not be Warranted in

Janusry 11, 1931, and was diamiosed,* Obvieusiy thia date da er- 
reneous because the firet claim was mot riled wntild Apréi 8, 1931. 
But the discrepancy is net Llpertant and we base our opinion on the 
facts as they seem to Auve been agreed on by counsel, amd that they 
are that the firet claim was fer ¢430 based upon dental werk done 
for tevoworn personally, the tteus of whieh are entirely 4\cferent 
from the items mentioned im the secema elaim, whieh is for 6486 fer 
work claimed to have beer fone for Ferd at LeGovern's request, 

Gm the hearing in the Cirewit court when the estate wae 
putting in ite 4efenea, it developed that the claim certified by the 
Probate sourt in the traneeript in the srenord filed im the Sireuit 
eourt wae the firet claim instead of the second, VUounsel Yer ciaime 
ant then, by leave of court and over ebjestion of counael for the 
estate, amended the claim to show that the work was done on Ferd 
and that the iteme aggregated S14 houre ae iteaized in the seeond 
elain. 

it ie contended by coureel Sor the estate that thie sasendment 
Was erroneously allewed, %« tuink thie cemtention eminet be sustained, 
Seunse) for the estate was not taxen by surprise becauce this smended 
Glaim had been filed secondly in the Probate court. Seth claime 
were for $420 and the evidenee tends to show tuat the Piret claim, 
which wag for vork claimed to have heen dene for kr. keGevern, was 
prepared in the manner at the suggeetion ef lir., Holevern's seere- 
tary so as ta make 1% anvear that the verk was done ver kr. Mee 
Govern personally, and not for kr. Ford, The elsim in substance 
was not changed, the setate was in ne way injured by the smendment 
and, under the lew, the amendment wae proveriy allewed, J2lsair y, 
Semmott, 254 011. 78; bet. of Jonnson vy. Silpatrick, 280 I1l.App. 416. 

Couneel fer the eetate further contends that the el reumetanees 
whieh surround the claim “cover it with grave wuepiciton® as to ite 


merite; that the work claimed te have been done for BH. A. Fora

covered a period of shout a year from Cetober 23, 1950, to August 
22, 1930; that the claim ahowld bave been presented during ir. 
keGevern's Lifetime, ard that "It does not eeom rengonable that the 
decedent would let such 6 matter stend unpaid if he (MeGevern) was 
the liberal charseter that weuld sseaume se large « 4¢bt in behalf 
of kis barber;* that sueh bills are paid with ereat sromptness, We 
think tiere ie merit in tais contention, bat we would net be war- 
ranted im finding that the verdict and judgment are against the mand. 
fest weight of the evidence in view ef the positive, uneontradicted 
evidence given by apparently disinterested -itmesses that kr. Mee 
GCeverm requested that tae work be done and omid he would Pay fer it. 
Roreover, the decedent's seeretary, wio might Rave been able te 
threw some light on the matter, var not cailed aos a witness, | 

What we have said 4iseoses of the ep tentien that the court 
erred in refusing an inetruction offered by the estete, 

A further contention is made by the estate that the court 
erred in permitting Dr. Corsant, a dentist, to give expert tastinony 
ae te the value of the dental work 4one by plaintiff on the ground 
that the witness was net qualified, the wiltnees testified that he 
Ware & licensed dentiet im this State and hed practiced Kie professian 
generally from 1902 to 1914, sinee whie: time he hed specialized on 
investigations, He further testified that he was fanilier with the 
usual, custemary charge in Uhieago for work ef the kind performed 


by Plaintit£’; and further, that he had examined Ford's mouth and 


teeth before the work was dome; thal he saw glaintiff perferm creme 
ef the work and had examined ford's teeth after the work was completed. 
in these circumetances, we think the objection was properly everruled.

property, and the Municipal eourt of Chicage dager net have juris- 
dietion to emferece a parol trust in peracnal property, and a court 
of chancery would be the only court ao having jurisdiction. * 

fhe defenge set up wae that the Judgeent entered in the 
firet suit was ree adjudicate. In supsert of this defendant intro- 
duced in evidence plaintiff's tuird amended statement ef claim filed 
in the first suit, and the Judgwent of the court sustaining defend- 
ant'e metion to strike such «atatcvent of claim, and the judgment 
entered in favor of the defendant for coste. in the third amended 
statewent of claim plaintiff?’ alleged that en December &, 1930, ke 
devesited $800 with the defendent; that it issued ite ¢ortifieate 
of depesit for that sum, payable te plmintift's wife within one 
year upon condition that sse lived continucusly with him during the 
year; that she left him December 10, 1930, without fault on his

On the trial slaintiff contended that plaintiff's third 
amended statement of eleim was stricken on the ground that the euit 
wae prematurely breught because 1% was brought and detersined with 
in a year after the ieeuance of the certificate of desealt. On the 
other hand, defendant contended that wlaintiff's third umented

ground that plaintiff's claim invelved wae a “trast claim” of which 
the Municipal court had no Jurisdiction, aid o witness testified 
for plaintiff and amether witneaa for defendant, tending to

get the esr the next day the rebe was aleving. He claimed $110, 
The defendant denied Liability and filed a set-off, alleging taat 
after plaintiff elaimed to haye loet the wobe defendant leaned bin

Plaintiff, the seteeff was etricken end me eomelaint ja made in 
this respect. The case Gas tried before the court sithout a jury 
and there wan « finding and Jucguent in plaintiffte faver far 2116 
and the defendant apocals, 

The regord discloues that om February 4, 19435, plaintiff, 
who lived in Kansas City, and whe was atooping at the Lake Shore 
Athletic Club, delivered his Cadiiise sutcosetile ta the doorman 
ef the club, whe eslied up the defendant garage and one of ite

plaintiff disceversd thet the rebe was «ome and netified the 
garage of thie facet, Search was made or the rube, bat it was not

The avidenee further shows that plaintiff's mather bought 


the robe froa Rondel Bree. fer $1062, and gave i+ te her som for a

A witness for defendant testified that he waa night manager 
ot defendant garage and #ehruary 4th, when plaistir¢'s ear was 
brougnt inte the garage he examined 14 aA there waa no rebo in 
the car at that tine; that "1 exauined #11 the automebiles that 
ere delivered at the garage; thai is my duty. i exasined beth 
the ineide ond outside ef a14 care delivered to the gerage;* that 
he exacined about 60 or 70 care each nignt; that he rewewbered the 
particular car because it was a guod Uedilies car. 

Piaintiff and his metner teatified that shortly after the 
robe wes lost they called at the garage anf telkad with ke. Barnard, 
the general wanager of the garage; tin’ he told them tuat the garage 
Wasa respengible; thet it was defendant's fends tant they Bould make 
goed the lowe; that Ae was gatiefled the less gecurred in the garage. 

Barnard decied taat he had made sug etatenenta and denied 
he had admitted any lisbility om the part of defendant, but stated 
he told pisiatiff and his wether that ha would try to legate the 
robe and gave instrugtiona te defendant's exployees te see if it 
eouid be Taeund, 

she eourt, in deeiding tae case, expresely found that the 
rebe waa lost in tne garage. “hile plaintiff testified hy deseei- 
tien, his mother testified in eoan eourt, In these clreuswtances 
we find the contention ef defendant that tae finding end judgment 
are aguinat the manifest welght ef the evitence, cannet be susteined 
en4 therefore, under the low, we are net warranted in 4icturbing the 
finding and Judgwent in plaintiff's favor. 

The defendant farther contends that the court sheuld have 
found for the defendant aa a sntter of law, beoenuce "There is ne 
evidence ef acceptance by the défendent of the autemebiie reve in

aatemebile and that in the absence ef sueh netiee, the defendant 
eanmnet be sharged as bailee, In sunpert of these contentions the 
defendant cites Lienican € ral =. H. Coe v. Carrow, 75 112, 348, 


and other cases. in the Michigan Central §, 5. ease, & passenger 
om a Pailread teok his trunk, whieh centained jewelry of the value 





of $30,000,to the station. Se gave the railread ne notice of the 
eontents but cheeked the trunk as baggage. The trumk end ite eontente 
were destroyed by fire while being traneserted snd it waz held that 
the railroad company wae not liable, it net having been shewn that 
it wae guilty of grees neglicence in respeet te the erixin ef the 
fire. Ubvieusly that case ie not im point. ‘here was nothing te 
indicates that there wae fewelry valued at $30,000 or at any other 
eum in the trumk, while in the instant case Lt is commen practice 
for rebea to be in sutemoeblies, This ia ehown by the fuet that dew 
fendent'« night canager testified, a8 abeve quoted, thet it was his 
duty te exanine beth the inside and outeide of all care delivered ts 
the garage and that he did ee in the inetant case. Yhe other oasee 
cited by the defendant are tc the same effeet and ebviously are not 
in saint. 

Pefendant alec scentends that the damages “are groesly exe 
essaive;* that there is mot a acint\ lla ef avidenee in the reeerd 
aes to the value of the rebe; that claintiff's mether, on being agked 
ma te the value of the rebe, was not vermitted to anewer, on 4efande 
ant's ebjection. 

The court 414 @rroneeusly sustain objections tq questions 
put te plaintiff's mether as te the value ef the robe, but she did 
testify, without obgection, end vroverly so, thet she paid 2262 
for it a little more than a month before the wehbe was lost. Ye 
have a number of timer held that im ordinary business transactions 


the price paid for an article is evidence of ite value, there being 


no evidenee which easts suspicion on the transmetion. Cloyes we.

The amended affidavit of merits further averred that he 
firet obtained knowledge of thie assumption clause in the deed in 
Geteber, 1952, wid thereupon he wae and et11i ie ready, willing and 
able to rescind the deal for the purchase of the equity but that 
Blisabeth *. Uni ia unable te return any consideration paid by him 
for the conveyance te him and hie wife, 

The affidavit eet uo the further defense that the notes ne 
longer evidenoe any existing indeetednesa, because plaintiff brought 
euit on these notes against Midgabeth ¥. Uhl and judcmont was ene 
tered in faver eof plaintiff sgainet her wpen said notes and the 
netes have been merged in the Judgment; that defendani did net knew 
whether plaintiff was still the ewner sf the fudement. 

The cause wae tried by a fury with results ae heretofore 
stated. Defendant cettends in the firet claee teat when a Judgoent 
hae been taken om a prosiiseory nete, the note bevcmes merged inte 
the judgment; that it le no longer evidence of indebtednesea, and 
thereatter no guilt at law can tbe maintsined on such note. He 
cites authority sueh as Bart v. Seyomur, 147 Til. 890; Jogeiyn v. 
Shite, 261 11. 16; Sears v. Kiehela, 175 tli, apo. 440; Kelley v. 
Mopks, 264 111. App. 408, 

he general rule of law for which defendant contends is net 
to be contreverted, hen a note is put in juduament, the note La, 
of course, merged in the judgment. However, here, plaintiff's 
suit is net breught om the netes., The suit isa breucht upon the al- 
lage’ promise ef defendant to aseume ond pay the encumbrances «hich 
existed sgainst the preperty at the time he reesived his deed and 
which are deseribed im the deed, Toe mere Pact that a judgment has 
been antered upon notes docu net render them inecempetent evidence 
for the purposes of proving any material facet. That was the purpose 
for which we assume they were admitted here. Such notes, although 


merged in a judgment, reusin competent ae items of evidence se far

eumbrances, The deed there, unlike thie ene, however, 414 net con- 
tain any elause whieh aeoumed and agresd te pay. 

Defendant aleo cites Siegel vy. Herland, 161 111. 107, where 
there had likewise teen an exchange of property and several eubse- 
quent grantees, The eeurt said, siting autheri ties: 

"Je sustain the deersa, the acts proved must smount te an 
agreement to pay the $28,060 upon the debt secured by the trust 
deed. It is true that « eentrast say be implied, snd that if the 
amount of an encumbrance is included in and forme a part ef the 
consideration which a grantee promises to pay for premises, and ne 
retains that sart of the purchase price, the Law will create a pere 
sonal ilability sagainet hin, ¢n the ground that he hae agreed te 
pay such indettedneas, In sueh a ease the Law eregumes that the 
grantee has agres’ te apply the money so retained fer the purpese 
ef paying the encumbrance, “Gither there must be an exoress age 
suaption of the indebtedness, or the amount suet be ellewed in the 
purchase price mo thet the law will imply the promise, * 
the defendants there were not held liable, the epinien pointing out 
that “neither in the contrast ser im the deed, sor in the subse- 
waomt deed te the Silegels, wae there any aewumption whatever af the 
debt seeured by the trust deed or ony syreement te pay it er any 
part of it.* 

Eay v. hobdell, 213 i11. 369, is sited by defendant, bat 
that ie @ case where the title ta the property conveyed was taken 
in truet for eertain orediiers at an agreed price and the party 
taking title was hel4 not lisble under the ecireumetonces, The 
court said: 

“The rule te be deduced fron the autherities ia, if the 
vendee of land enewabered by mortgage or trust deed purchases only 
the vendor's equity of redemption, he is net pereonally liabie te 
pay the encumbrance resting upon the land unless he expressly an- 
gumed and agreed te pay the same, if, however, he purchases Land 
Tor ite full value and retains in his hends, out of the considera. 
tien, a sufficient aus to satisly the encumbrance, he may be held 
personally liable for the payment thereef, even theugh he has net 
expressly agreed to pay tue eneuwsbrunee reating upem the Land, * 
the deed in thin case did not contain any agreement that the grantees 
should assume the enowsabrances,

whether a defenaant who had defaulted could be held liable ucon a 
foreclosure for a aeficiency decree. The court held sgeainst the 
eontention of the defeniant that the statute of frauds was not 
apolicable, but as the bi}2 41d not allege that the defendant had 
signed or sealed his deed, or that tie deed was delivered to nis 
and he had aceepted it, he wae held not Llisble. That ease alse 
held that the mere recording of the deed did mot constitute an 
acceptance under the clreunetances thore spo¢aring, although three 
of the fudgee dissented, Similar in effect was Kreidjer v, Myde, 
120 Lil. App. $05, whieh defendant aise cites, 





Bpler, 196 113. App. 615, the defendent was 
held not liable where it appeared thet the eleuse was fraudulently 
placed in the deed by the sgent of the plaintiff. The defendant 


was alao Held net liable in Ber 





t, 211 Tir. 263, 
where the purperted deed which contained the afeusption clause wae 
in fact net an absolute deed bul a morteage and hed newer been in 
fact delivered. 

Wilson v. Mundy, 232 111. App. 575, ie another case where 
the defendant wae held mot liable on « defieieney deeres by the 
Appellate court for the Second district in an epinien which reviewe 
many of the cases on thie subject, it wan undisputed there, however, 
that the question of whether the defendant shewld assume was dige 
cussed, and that the defendant had stated distinetly that he would 
net enter inte sny contract by wuieh Me would a¢sume the mortgages. 
There wae aleo evidence tending to show that the clause was inserted 
surreptitiously and @witheut the defendant's knewledge. Moreover, 
it there appeared that the defendant hat never reeognized the ine 
debtedness by making amy paymente on it. 

The eum and substarice of all the cases seems to be that 


where it appears that the transaction ie in every reepect free from 


fraud or mistake, wi4 ehere it further appears that the purehare

price of the oreperty is definitely agreed upon and upem the comphe- 
tion 4f the transaction the oneumbrance ig treated by the parties as 
a part of the consideration smd the grantee secepts a deed eentain- 
ing a specific agreexent te pay the *hcumbraices and thereafter 
reecsguizes the ebligation by making paymerte thereon, he will be 
held liable upon the theery that Ke Bas assumed and agreed te poy. 
in i am ¥, Pingkerd, 304 Til, 449, the defendant had been 





held lishle by the trial court fer a deficieney decree, and the 
Supreme court sald thet the only question involved in the esee was 
whether or net the sesenting ef title te the pregerty ana taking 
the benefit of the rente arising therefrem, together Fith payment 
ef $1000 on the mortgage, smounted to en acceptance or ratification 
ef the clause in the dee4 reciting tast the tonveyance wae mamde sube 
geet to sil encusbrances of record, Waich the grantee assumed and 
agreed to pay. The court then went on to say thet such agreement 
must be based on oufficlent comaiteration, and that sometuing mere 
than the mere insertion of the glauce that the grantee assumed wae 
neceewary. The court sai4 that wiless it be sheen that the grantee 
in s deed has some reagon te surpese that the deed te hin contained 
& personal contract om Hie part to pay = Rortvage or other lien on 
the property traneferred, wid that he ecsented tierets, he cannot 
be held, at a matter of law, to have aseuned such obligation, and 


*Apolying the above rules to the ease <t bar, we come te 
the question whether or sot there ie in the record evidence shoving 
m delivery and acceptance «f the decd containing the aseumption 
Glaus¢ and asesnt therete. Sefendant in errer offered no evidences, 
and, a8 we have esen, the plaintiff in errer's evidenee shows that 
the 4efendast in error nad nothing to 4¢ with the tranefer of the 
property to her. There ie ne direet evyidenee showing that ehe knew 
anything about the ansunuption clause in the deed te her, the took 
title to the property, horever, received the rents therefrom and 
paid taxes theresn, and while she, under the rues herein referred

shows that by letter she sent a payment of $1000 en this mortgage. 
While the Letter is not in the recerd, from the testimony relat 
thereto it is evident that it vee written by dafendent in error

does not anpear that the money came rem tae reuts of the property 
or from any other seuree axeept the personal funde of defendant in 
error. She contends, hewevar, - and im tale she in supported by 
the Appellate court, - that this is merely an evidence of a desire 
on her part to free the property of the lien and not ewidenee ef 
agveptance on her part of the agsumptien clause of the deed. 41th 
this we eannet agree. In the absence ef any proof Limiting the 
effect of suck paynent, we are of the opinion that it must be taken 
ae an set of assent on her part to the assuaptien clause ef the 
quiteclaim deed te her. ‘his payment undoubtedly establishes actual 
knowledge on Aer part of the existence of thia mortgage, It alee 
negatives any repadiaticn of the angumstien clause in the deed and 
eonstitutee evidence of gondact om har eart denuting on aceeptance 
of such clause," 

Applying theee rulcs to the Peete of thig case it appears 
from the uncuntryadieted proses that tae purchase price of this 
property wag $16,080; tint the enewabrancee on the property were 
eredited to defendant as a part of the esmeaideration fer the anus; 
that he tesk « deed after it was reeerded ond tuek nosteesion of 
the premises and for several years continued to make payments upen 
these snoumbrancea, Sin conduct speaks such Louder than any words 
end shees conclusively the acceptance by him ef tas dard with knowk 
edge, a& 6 must presume, of the assusetion clause, The ecenveyanee 
by the grantor wae o sufficient comsiderstice for his promise,

from time to time, and on July 14th, in the absence of defendant 
oY anyone revresesting sim, the esase was ivied before the sourt, 
There was a finding fer plaintiff in the eum ef 9709.25, and Judge 
ment entered therefor, 

dAuguet 19th thereafter defendant saved te vacate tae 
Judgment, and Aauguat aiet defendant by Leave filed hie patition 
with certain affidavits in support of his motion. Plaintiff aade 
& motion te reassign the case to Judge Lyle, who entered the fudze 
ment, and hie motion was detiied av wae also » petition for a 
change ef venue from Chief Justice Soneteby, whieh wae Plled later. 
The Bearing on the motion was continued from time to time. Plaine 
tiff made o motion te strike the petition, whieh was denied. the 
mammer of the hearing was anomeious, in that while censidering the 
motion to eatrike, the court st the requcet of plaintifY aise heard 
oral evidence, At the consiusion of the Hearing he entered an order 
vaesting the judgment and eetting the cause fer trial. From that 
erder plaintiff preoseeutes thie «wepeal. 

While the hearing snd precmedings are in some resseete une 
usual (fer whieh plaintiff was largely responeible), we think the 
sontreliing facta are not doubtful. Oefendant bad Tiled an affida- 
wit of merite, which if true wae « complete defense to plaintiff's 
Glaim, fhe enuse had bean get for trial, and defendant's attorney

Saturday were the closing daya ef court preceding the summer recess

on the 14th but thet he sheald exanine the filbos in August or early 
in September to learn upen whet day the case woul? be tried. it 
alee averred that defendant's attorney sopesred im court personaily 
July 14th ond inquired of the clerk an to the dienosition of the 
esuse and wae inforeed that 1% hed een continued until fell. The 
averment of the petition that defendant had no agtuel knewledge of 
the entry of thie judgsent until the service of am exeevtion on him 
on Auguet 17, 1934, is not contradicted, al theugh practically ef the 
end of the preceeding leave wae given glaintiff te file an anewer to 
the petition. 

fhe clerk of the court testified that ke did met have any 
reevllection of talking with defendant's attormeys. The reeerd 
shows, however, thet §1 cases were on Judge iyle's Gali at this 
time and that thia one was Ko. 26. Reeslleection by the clerk ef 
everything that occurred in eonnestion with these eases on this hot 
July day would be unusual. In addition te the testimony of the clerk 
plaintiff hiweelf testified, and his testioeny gives a quite vivid 
picture of what actually cecurred, In brief, 4 cisrk from hie of

BR, PRESIDING JUSTICR BATCHRYT 
GELIVERED THE OPINION GY THK GauRT, 

This is an appeal by deferdant fres a deereo awarding te 
complainant an accounting fer balf of the gross preceede arising 
from the sale ef a book known a6 “The Ocesetiate,”* and reereferring 
the couse te a maeter to state the account betvreen the parties, 

The cause fae Keard upon e@xeoptione of defendant te the re- 
port cf « master in chancery, te “hom it Sed been referred. These 
exceptions were overruled, and « deeree entered in conforaity with 
the recommendatione of the master, 

The faets aa alleged in the bili and found by the master 
are as follows; 

in April, 1928, and fer severei years prier therete, come 
Plainant was engeged in tesehing atid demonstrating the art knewn

between the parties whereby it wae agreed that eoeslaiaant weuld 
permit defendant te uee her netes in and about the eompilation and 
publication of the teek; that she would enter the employ of de- 
fendant and would teach and demenstrate the art of beauty evlture 
under the direction of Meyer; that she woul4 demonatrate and reeem- 
mend exclusively the equinnent auwifactured and sold by defendant 
and that in eoneideration of her netes and her services defendant 
would pay her and she would accept an Tull compensation half of the 
grease proceeds srieing from the sale ef the beoks, plue a drawing 
aecount of $38.8 week and expenses whan out ef the sity ef Chieage. 
Pareuant te the contract she delivered the notes to Meyer 
and under his direetion wrote a texi book known ae *The Goemetiete, * 
whieh was copyrighted under the nase of tha defendant. Defendant 
eaused seven editions of the book te be issued, im ali averoximately 
28,000 copies, These wore printed and offered tor sale snd were seld 
te the pablis. Gemvlaimant hae fully nerfermed her part of the ¢on- 
tract and hag no kneowledg® as te the sxset number of copies or the 
exact price at which they wore sold, or the exact anount received 
by defendant, ae she kept ne books of secount in relation therete, 
bat all the faets are sithin the knowledge eY Reyer and defendant 
kept bocke ef aceount showing the fasts. After the completion sand 
@ale of these seven efiticne of the beok comuliainant fron time te 
time dexanded from defendant om secounting and that it pay te her 
her share of the green proceods arising frem the gales, tut de~W~ 
fendant neglected to make such accounting or te pay such money. In 
September, 1931, complainant left tae empley of defendant and Keyer 
refused te segount to her fer the preceeds from the eale ef the 
book amd teld her that the book was in fact the property of defendant. 
The anewer of defendant #et up a nucher of defenses, De- 
fenédant aaserte that the finding tust the centraet was executed is 


against the preponderance of the evidence and urges that, if made,

the agreement wae ultra vires the corporation; that Seyer as presie 
dent wae without sutherity te sake such gontreet, aid that ne such 
authority wae conferred upen him; tist eomplainuit cannet sttain 
equitable relief because of unclean hands, and that the cause of age 
tion is barred by the etatute of Limitaticns, 

The eehtentien ef defendant as te unclean handa is based 
upon the alleget fxet that the material whieh compiainant furnished 
te defendant was not her own but was taken from other hooks and ane 
thoritics. 

There are tre anewers tc thig sontentien, Im the firet 
place, the rule ie applicatie enly where the inenulty of whieh come 
pinint ie meade concerns the very matter about which relief is sought, 
Aesusing that the findings cf the mawter and the decree are correet., 
the supcesed inequitable eondust ie in our epinien tes remete te bar 
complainant from her aetion. in the second place, the notes she 
furnished m4 the beck abe aenisted in preparing fer publication de 
net purport te be more than « compilation of knoviedge on the subject. 
She made no particular claims to being an original investigater aleng 
these lines, but the evidence tends te estublish that with the 
aseletmee of delendant's preeident thie material gathered from 4if- 
ferent scurces was compiled inte a treatise on the subfect ehich was 
mere or Llese uxefal, but whiah at any rate served the evident pur- 
pose for whieh 1t was designed, tiat is, advertising (at the ax- 
pense cf the purchasers) machines, equipment, ets., of defendant 
company. Indeed, it seane te have been a sucgeseful venture. Meyer 
says that compiainant quit the service: 6f defendant voluntarily, 
and that defendant would heave been willing te make use of her ser- 
vices for s lenger time had she wished to remain, We hold that come 
Plainant ie net precluded by any inecuity in her conduct from raine 
taining her suit. 


Again, defendant contends that the alleged agreement was

$36 Tl. 822; Anes v. Garo! 





Lu et w 3 He oa, 





Botfman, In¢g., $36 111. S43, aud many other eagee, Yhey say that 
Henleys had no aecount with olaintiff; thet $5,000 was deneaited 
in ew¢rew; that plaintiff? eculd have retained the price of tne 
gveranty policy, if 14 wished, oid instead ef thie, it eleeted te 
Yeleage the funds im ite porsecsien and to look te beVry fer pay- 
ment. They furtaer eay that sialntiff ewald Bave recovered from 
Devry. 

Fe think it quite unmneceseary to review the eases cited. 
They ar® clearly distinguishable upon the facte and not at 211 sone 
trolling here, The mere fact that tse itene mued for wore charged 
to DeVry'sa sceount would net greoiude a sult thereafter against Je- 


Tendante. White Oak Coal Ga, v. Yortringtan, 15% lil. Ape. 86%. 





In the absonce of proof to the sentrary the contract with slaintiff 
will be interpreted an the agsiication of deYendants, net of DeVry, 
@ince 1t clearly sopeare that Devry acted in the tramesction fer 
disclosed principals. See Kestaieeent of the Law of Ageney, sects, 
155 and 156, There wae mo orcef here, cor offer to prove, thet 
Plaintiff or ites agente handling tiie transaetion were informed that 
DeVry was to pay these cogte ani expenees, if guen knovledge hed 
been brought home te plaintiif, different questien would be eree 
sented, The uncontradicted evidenor chews that defendants with 
knowledge requested and secepted the services of plaintiff and the 
papers and decunente produced by such services; that by written gon. 
tract they hed expresely obligated themaelves to deliver sech 
doguments se prepared by glaintiff. Um the plainest orinciples of 
equity and justice they are obligated te pay fer that which they 
have reecived and used, The conversations between defendants and 
their agent DeVry in the abeence ef representatives of plaintirr 
eould met in any way be binding upon plaintiff anlere there wee an 


offer to shew that such conversations or arrangenent had been made

in the collateral agreement bul caused an execution te be isaued 
and levied on thie certificate ef stock in complainant eempany, 
Davie G. KeCarn Was present at the sale December 1, 1931, amd the 
steck was purchased by Peter J, Blagserich, then a stoekhelider and 
afterwarda slected « direstor of complainant, 

The master found thai the value of these 100 shares on 
April 14th, 1631, was #92 «a share, Complainent hewing filed ne 
objection before the master nor exesption before the chancellor te 
thie finding, ie therefore oreecluded trem argutag, to the contrary 
here, Harble v, Thomas, 178 tll. 540; Genrke v. Geurke, 190 111. 
166; Barney v. Comre, of Lincoln Park, 295 111. 397. Assuming thie 
to be the value of the ateek on that date, the proof befare the 
master shows that defenident retained an ameunt of property on April 
16th sufficlent to meet Nis obligation, and that practically the 
@ntire amount of property se retained was in the posecagion of come 
plainant, 

The bALL ae filed eens to be based upon the theory that it 
was the intention of the jJudgeant debter te defraud eomplainant by 
the tromefer in trust. The cage hare, however, ie orgued uren a 
aifferent theory, Bemely, sat of « ecqnstructive trust, and it is 
urged that it ie pet meceseary to show a¢tusl ioselveney in order 
to render a voluntary tranefer to o wife or child wold, tit that 
the true teat is whether or not the tranefer direetly Mmtended to 
er 41d impair the rights of existing erediters. Cemplainant sites 
Birney vy. Selomen, 348 111. 410, in whieh the Lilinois cases are 
reviewed, It is there held that the established rule in this State 
deee not require proof sf actual inscivenecy in order te render a 
voluntary conveyance veid where the tame is made from a husband te 
a eife or from a parent te a ehiid. The eourt said: 

"The doctrine ia firsly deelered toe be that ene must be just 


before he is generous. Bhat may be in the mind of the granter when 
he makeea a voluntary conveyance to hie wife or ohild is immaterial,

for if it results in hindering, delaying or defrauding crediters, 
it must be regartet an fraudulent, A donor may make a conveyanees 
with the most upright datentions, an¢ yet, if the transfer hinders, 
delays «r defrauds his erediters it may be set aside as freudulent, 
(Hanuen Sa OSFI624, 124 012. 164; Mekey v. Metoid, 298 id. 666.) 

Of such feree is this rule that where ane is feand to be insolvent 
after having made a voluntary eonveyanee te his wife the burden ef 
dispelling the implication of fraud ae agalnet pre-exiating 
ereciteors is upen hia grantee. Dilisan Ya. Sadehhect aes 463 maa

Defendants do net ouéetion thie rule of law but argue that 
the fects woieh appear in thie ease bring it within an exeention 
te the general rule, tamely, that « erediter whe ie fully eeeured 
at the time of a voluntary cenveyanee may not nave the same set 
aside upon the technical presusption raised merely ty eatablishing 
the faet of a debtor's indebtedness, cut teat i such case the 
erediter should be required te plead and preve other cirequssatances 
from which the debtor's intent to defraud might be reasonably ine 
ferred. Defendants Say that the oroof shews that at the date ef the 
transfer ¢oxplainant was Tully sveoured by the stoek of the Pane 
American Yall Paper © Paint Ge., which nad «a book value of $92 a 
share and which the master has found eaetusliy hed that value; 
that tiles finding is suvperted by ctatenenta in evidence refleeting 
the financial eenditien ef scemeininant; that it appears that the 
stock of complainant ie cleséely held; that 1¢ is a "chose corpo rae 
tion*®; that the financial statecnents in evidence indicate ne in- 
Yliation of values; that tiere are ne sueh inflated items as "good

has done business ever the eompsrativéely ieng peried of sixteen

$92 o share, while still ineieting on collecting a deficiency, 
Befendants point out thet MeGarm had ne other ereditors than eome 
Plainent; that we waa not in faet in default under his contract 

but that that default wee created through the exergise on the part 
of complainant of ite right of forfeiture whieh haa resulted in a 
hardehip te nim; that comolcinant fellewed ite legal righte 
atrietiy, confeased Judgment upon the note, procesdad to levy upon 
the security, and defendants sey that while this course was legally 
permicsible it was met calculated to procure the best price for the 
eharee of stock because it emphasized and aeve moteriety to the 
fereed charseter ef the Liquidation. The original contract between 
the curties 414 net contemplate the full recaynent of this lean 
until Getober, 4955. They further point out that the parties had 
in contemplation that the revayment would be made out of the eslaried 
earnings of defendant; that revaynent wae fer the time being stopped 
by the acceptance of defendant's resignation and hie teaporary un}

that the couplaining crediter hee become such erediter subsequent 
to the time of the tranefer, and ike other where an exieting 
orediter is fully secured at the time 63 the transfer. 

The exceptions are diggussed by Chancelier Aent in an exe 
heustive opinien filed in heada, Admatr. v. Livingsten, 3 Johnaon's 
Gnaneery Reporte (/.¥. 1418) 441. ‘The opinion in that ease reviews 
the Englieh and American sautherliies ond, while stating the general 
rule which hae been follewed in lliineis (asd helding in that par- 
ticular case that the transfer ip trust was fraudulent as ageinet 
the creditors) pointed oul that as to claims of subsequent ereditera 
there was sore 417fieculty in arriving at a deficitive opinion. That 
@reat Judge sise etated by way of dictum the better opinien te be 
“that the presuaptien of fraud as ie these erediters arising from 
the cireumetance, that the party was indebted at the time, ia re- 
pelied by the fact of these debts being edeuiid by sertgage, or by a 
provision in the settlement; taat if ne such cireumetonece existe, 
they are entitied te impeach the settiemont by a blll preperly 
adapted to their purpose, and charging and proving indebtedness at 
the time, #6 that their rights will not depend on the mere cleasure 
ef the prior creditors, whether they will 6r 7111 net impeach the 
settlement." 

As defendants point cut, thue early in tne bistery of the law 
the fact that a erediter was fully secured sae reengrized as a ele 
Qumatance that would rebut the praeuption of fraud waich would 
otherwise arise from a voluntary conveyanee by a debter, and tais 
dictua of Chancelior Lent seems to heve been followed in mony 
Gases in different jurisdictions, Without undertaking to 4iseuse 
the facts in detail, we quote from deme Life & Accident Co. vy, 
Sehietl, 17% ark.,, Si, where the geurt maid that the reason fer 
indulging presumetions did net avply under sirewnetances where the 


erediter held full security, smd further waid:

"The reeaon for this dictinetion in putting seeured eredie 
tere in the some entegery os subsequent ereditera is that, whatever 
presuxption ie te be indulged, the erediter, in aelecting nie seque 
rity, hae, unlike a general erediter, disregarded esther oroperty of 
the debter and locked eniy ta hie security for the calleetion ef 
hie debt, hence he is entitied te ne presumption ef fraud in the hee: 
eonveyarnce ef other sroperty. uch « erediter ia one whe hes 
already been given a preference over ethere, ond ia not in the ate 
titude ef an existing gemeral erediter, henee his relianee is 
deemed to have bean founded on Kis seeurity rether Luan on the 
solvyesey of the 4ebter.* ; 


in Van Wyek v. Seward, 6 Paige's Chuocery Heports 62 (8.Y.) 
affirmed ic 18 Yend. 475, a bili brought to set seide an alleged 
fraudulent conveyance was dismissed. Chancellor Yalworth, discuaeing 
the faets, esid that it appeared that doupiainant had failed te shew 
that defendant had an intention te Aefraud complainant by his volun. 
tary settlement ef hic preperty which had tuken plaee before 4t was 
aseerteaines that the Judgment could net be coliestsd out of the 
property upon which it wags 4 lien. he sabds 


“and I think the evidenes seews, ost conclusively, that the 
property upon which the assigned juigeent was « lien, 17 gold fer 
anytuing Like ite falr cash value, vould have been suificiernt te 
eatisfy the whole amount of that Judgment. The eompluinant, pere 
haps, Kad the technical right te out up the preperty for sale wpe 
the execution, and bid if in fer a nominal oum if ne bidders at- 
tended to run it up to ite feir value, and then te sold Fillies 
Seward, who had guaranteed the coliection of the Judmeot, liable 
for the deficieney. Sat must we oresume that Willian Seward anti- 
cipated that gues a course of pree¢eding would kave been adepted by 
the complainant; and hold Aiea settieaent ef his property smong the 
afferent meubers of his family «he Aad claime upon Sie bounty, 
fraudulent for that reason? If taere vas ample property beund ky 
the lien of the jJudguent to pay the debt, at the fair cash value, 
and the guaranter had ae reasen te believe he would be charged with 
ony thing under hie guaranty, that is sufficient te rebut #11 pre- 
@uaption of fraad. Under the circuwetances of this ease, I do net 
believe the complainant would huve permitted a strauger toe bid in 
the property bound by the agvigned judgment at the asvunt due 
thereon; leaving his own subsequent judgeent unpaid, The sevsigner, 
therefore, could not reasonably have anticipated the @#vente whieh 
afterwards cceurred.* 


the same rule secue to have been follewed in Kellilian y. 
Egkilien, 245 Pac. Kes. 98 (Idehe 1926), where the court said: 

“Thatever the general rule way be with respect te the burden 
of proof in actions to set aside eonyeyences alleged te be in fraud 


of erecitors, it must be kept in mind that this action ia by a 
secured creditor, one who held mortynge seourity for the payment ef

subsequent foreclasure and éeficieney Judgment. Keither a gift

sideration, ie srima faele fraudulent. ¢€. &. sae. 8435, * 


In Polk County Sational Bunk v,. Beet 





the court said: 

"if the only debt the grantor owes at the time of the cift 
is fully secured, the conveyance must be held velid, for he is thm 
in the same condition legally ae if he vere free from debt. the 
evidence shewe that at the time Seett made the deed te bie wife the 
debt to the bank wae weli secured, {4 apoears that the bank rested 
eatiofied with the security for more than eight yeara,. It is net 
even now shown affirmatively that the property in the hande ef the 
trustees is net sufficient te seeure the debt.* 


In Steakel vy. Billion, 210 In, 1138, 232 N. W. 387, the 
Supreme court of that state said in substance that the debtor was 
entitled in equity te have the seeurity held by the erediter applied 
on the indebtedness; that if it bead been sa applied there woulda be 
mo deficit and witheut euch deficit the ereditor was uct prejudiced 
nor damaged by the slleged intended fread of the debter whe wade 
the conveyance, In Stephenson v. Demahue, 4: Ohio St. hep. 184, 
the same rule vas apolied, 

In Kational City Bank v, Cowdin, 343 111. 436, a subsequent 
erediter sought to eet aside o conveyanoe made by the debier te his 
wife prior te the time the indebtedness originated, the triai court 
held the conveysnee vold on the ground that the debtor waa heavily 
indebted when he made the eonveyence; cut our Supreme eourt reversed 
the judgment on the authority of Boritz v, Hoffman, 56 lil. 583, 
saying that while the evidence ehowed that the debter Had considere 
able indebtedness at the time he made the conveyance, it was largely 
centingent as surety for others, enti while the trial ceurt had found 


thet his asneta were insufficient te discharge or satisi'y his debts 


and liabilities, nevertheless the evidence failed te aupoert the

finding of the waster) that at the time this gonveyanee wae wade 
the orediter held in ite Sande apple security te meet the entire 
indebtedness. This indebtedness beeame due only by reagon of come 
Pleinwit's eleetien to deciure it dae, For « esurt ef equity te 
render ite assistence te aomplininant ander these eiresietonces 
would be te aid in moanures epvrrecsive in their nature, On thie 
reeord it must be held that at the time tae transfer van made gone 
plsinant held in tte possession seourity and proserty suffloelent in 
value te cover the indebtedness of defendant to complainant, and 
such an uncontradicted fact rebuts any sresumption of fraud on the 
part of defendant at the time he senveyed the stock in queetion 
fer the benefit of hie wits, [t te urged thet the sourt erred in 
hearing evidence in addition to that reyerted by the saster, Egan 
¥. Zeon, 244 111. App. 497, and Central Lliinoiy Public Service Ge. 
vw. Sullivan, 204 211. Lil, are cited. Ye have disregarded this 





evidence, “Ye presume the chanee@llor alee disregarded it, wince 


the record indicates the evidence was taken only for the pursese of 
determining whether there should be a re-reSerence to the master, 
and after hearing 1¢ the chancellor stated in aubstanse that it was 
not material, 

The decree of the Superior court will be affissed,

complainant renewed his former promise to pay te dolinger & Co., 
but was unable to 46 se, ani that the master's deed Lesucd te Zser 
and Sehlundt April £1, 1931; that Seer and Schlunét demanded vossese 
sion of cenplainsnt's flat in said prewises and netified the tenants 
mot to pay further rente to csmpiainant. The bill prayed for an see- 
gounting and that the deed should be construed tc be a mortgare. 

Defendants snevwered tae iil, admitting the forser ownership 
of complainant and hie wife, the execution of the aubsequent trust 
deeds, the exeeution of the nesignment of rents whieh was attached 
te the bili, the fereclasure of the truet deeds and the lasussee of 
the certificate of eals aud ite aesigument te Zeer ani Sehlundt, but 
denied that the aseianmeaent *as then in effect or that A. Heolinger & 
Co. acted as agent ef complecinant. Gn the contrary, defendante said 
that they took action in the matter and bought this certificate fer 
the benefit of the holders cf the first mortgage bonds in furtheranee 
of plaus underway to reorganize the property. Defeodante admit they 
effered te assign the certificate te compiuinast om different condie 
tione as te paywents which complainant newer is fact made. They set 
ap in the anewer a iatter in whieh the offer was made, but upen hich 
conpluinant never scted, They adeit that the deed finally issued 
and that the elders ef the deed deaanded pesteesien of the preniaes 
and notified the occupants net te pay the rente, Defendente deny 
that they ever ected se the agente ef compleinsnmt and say that they 
hold the master's deed adversely to eomplainent, ‘They alao deny that 
complainant wae entities te am aeecunting. 

The evidence taken by the master waa largely submitted by 
stipulation, aad there is practienlly ne dispute as ts the controle 
ling facts, Indeed, complainant does net argue that any particular 
finding of fact by the aaster ie manifestly againat the evidence, 
and the findings of the gaster are prise facie serrect, He found

the purchase wan to orevent another Sorecloaure, 

The master further found thet tae proof did net shew that 
A Holinger & te. acted as agent or attcrney fer complainant; that 
the purchase wae aude toe tervinate the rights and interests ef come 
pPlainant and other parties, exeepting the first mortgage bondholdera; 
that an aceount had teen rendered ani the accounting shewed that neo 
part of the $2,000 used ip the purchase was obtained from the rents 
of the premises; trat Helinger & Ue. 4i4 net owe any money to ¢ome 
Plalinant; that, on tae contrary, complainant is indebted te dolinger 
& Co, for a large gum of soney; that ¢esoiainant was net entitled te 
a ageountiag, sid that the biLi ef cernpisint was defective and 
should be dismissed because comeisinant 410 net effer to dae equity 
by the return of ony swe of soney advanced by Kelinger 4 Gs.: that 
the evidence did net shew that the maeter'e deed war to be hela ae a 
morigage; that the rente eoliected ponding the injumetion sheuld be 
turned over te defeniants, Zser and Sehlunat. 

Se already stated, it ie net arguad that ang faet found by 
the master is centrary te the evidence, Further, it ie quite a4iffie 
cult to understand the tavery upon which eemplainant proceeds, He 
cites eases, many of which are net ieeunned, to the pointe thet the 
Felationehip of princleal and agent existed between complainant and 
defendants; that a fiduciary relationship was ereated by the aete of 
the parties at the time of the acquisitien of the aesignmente ef rente 
by A. Holinger & Co.; that the burden was ugsen the assignee to show 
that no fiduciary relatienship existed and that it had completely 
performed ite obligation, and thet a Fiduciary relation may exist in 
ail cases in which influence has been aequired and abused, or in “hich 
confidence has been repesed and petrayed; and, finally, cites an su. 
thority te the peint that here a transaction ts originally intended 
te be @ mortgage, it will continue se until legally otherwise ae«

course, ie not as a matter of law in digeute. The 4iffiguity is 
that there ia pot ao Scintilla of svidence in the record from which a 
eourt gould find that the transaction ot the time of the purchase of 
the master's deed was ever intended by amwyone te be o mertgage, Gee 
foendante gomplain that comsisinant in wie argumest has not Pellewed 
the rales of this court, sid we are of the eplnion that the oomnliaint 
ie not without reagen. any caece are cited, but only a Sew of them 
are atialysed er shown to Lave any coesible apecliamtion te the fuaete 
appearing here. Such presentation oniy a€4a to the burdene ef the 
court, 

Ae defendants point out, A. Hslingsr & Us. wae net (ae dome 
plainant assumes 1¢ was) the agent in the transacticn im gqueetion. On 
the contrary, it was the agent of the bondholders sheers bonds were geo 
cured by the firet mertgage. Then defoult was made in payments under 
that mortgage, A. folinger & Co, seught and ebtained from eomplainant 
as additional eecurity an eesignment of the rente of the eroperty. A 
day or two toeresfter it employed cowelsinant te eoliscet the rente 
Tor it, sgreeing te pay him compensation of thres per sent snd permit 
him te secupy se apartment in tke premises. It ie now anoarentiy eone- 
tended that the effect ef this was to create the relationship of 
Principal and agent as between A, Keliuger & Ce. and tomeluimant. If 
it could be auld tuat such relationship wae thereby ormate’, it would 
seem clear that Holinger 4 Co. would be the prineipai, sinee it hired 
and poid complainant te set in its behalf im making seliections, Upen 
| this theery, we would have the atomeleus situation ef the agent claim. 
ing that it was the ‘uty of the principal te aet for the agent's 
| benefit, whieh, ef couree, would be absurd, As a matter of fact and 
| of law, of gourse, A. Holinger & Co. was obligate¢ te Look after the 
intereste of the first mortgage bendheldere.

Gomplainant Piled its bili seeking « weghanie'ts Lien on 
the premises at 230 forth Zickigen Avenue, Ghaieago, Ter a balance 
of $13,663.54, revreseiting plucking materiel inatalled in the builde 
ing. Tne cauee wae referred to a saunter in gluuncery who, after heare 
ing evidence, reported, recommeniing a deere? in agwordanse with th 
prayer of the complainant's 6111; upen hearing exceptions te the 
report the chanceller slievwed eompiainant a lien for $1216.93, with 
interest, and disallewed the balanee of the lain. Vong) mina t 
appeals te thie sourt, aeking that 1% be allewed the full amount, 
Defeidante fo net gueetion the lien for the emslier amount. 

Apparentiy the echancelicr was ef the opinien that there was 
® Variance between certain allegations of ¢ompiainant'ts bill and the 
proof, and aise that conpleinant Had two contracts for plusaving and 
that the bill wae net filed anti after four monthe frem the last

that the bill wae flied within four months fron the date of Last

gertsin trust deeds conveying the premises were made whieh are 
not material to the present controversy. in Kay, 1999, Henry 
Paschen, doing businese as Paachen Srotaers, eutered into o write 
ten contract as general contractors with the 840 herth Biehigan 
Avenue Bullding Corporation fer the construction of an office 
building om the premises. 

duguet 22, 1925, Pasehen made a written contract with 
Jenn Degnan, Inc., whereby the latter for $102,000 was te provide 
all materiale and perform all work fer the plumbing to be ine 
atalied in the building, 

Complainant is a eerperation in the business of manufaeter- 
ing and ve@lling pipe, plumbing fixtures and supplies. in Kay end 
Faly, 19298, complainant sent to John Degman, inc., written gquotae 
tiene of prices on itexe ef plumbing, and John Degnan, ine, 
bought some “roughing in* waterial, said te be pipes enclesed in 
the structure of a building, net the ordinary plumbing Pixtures 
such as water closets and lavateries, Apparently this "roughing 
in” material has been paid fer, and the present claim for lien is 
for fixtures, 

Decesber 11, 1928, John Degnan, tne., in writing ordered 
from complainant certain fixtures for the lump sun of $15,000, with 
the understanding that any additions or deductions should be made 
at the prices of the items contained in the quotations, Subse 
quently, certain other orders for fixtures and euppiies were given 
te eomplainant. These goods ware furnished by complsinant and ine 
eerperated in the bulliding. 

in way, 1929, there wae due complainant Tor such fixtures, 
after allowing eredite, $32,449.36; about thie time John Degran, 
Ine., became financially exbarrassed and was not able to pay the 
pills of complainant and it refused te deliver any mere material 
er fixtures, whereupen Paschen Brothers, the gmeral ecentracters, 


wrote a letter to compisinant cuaranteeing to pay for the reseinder

ef the work. The letter saya: “We guarantee payment for plumbing 
material needed threughout the remaimder of the work that ie ore 
dered from you by eur representative at the inetigation of John 
Degnan or hie sutherigzed representative." The letter alee ine 
structed that the orders should be billed "te Pasehen Brothers, 
e/e Jom Degnon." Thereafter complainant delivered plumbing sup- 
plies ss ordered by Paschen Bratiers at the prices agreed upon 
between comslainant and Johm BDegnan, Ime. The material delivered 
after thie letter was written amounts te $1221.45, and the lien 
fer thie is not questioned, 

The master found that sil the plumbing material was 
wrought inte and became a permanent part of the structure, en- 
hancing its value in excess of the amount claimed by complainant. 
The master aleo found that the last delivery ef material, prier 
te the letter of Baschen Ercthers guaranteeing the acecunt, was 
in Bay, 1999, and the last material delivered after that letter was 
om August 2, 19%; that due noticesor the mechanic's liens were 
served, ani that all the parties interested knowingly permitted 
compleinent to furnieh materials and supclies to the building; 
the waster found that all eof the material allegations of the bili 
an? amendments and supplementa therete hag been proven, and reeome 
mended a degree aceordingly. 

Defendante argue that there was a material variance between 
complainant's pleadings and the proof, in that complainant alleged 
the centract was made December 11, 1924, while the proof shewed it 
Was made May 11, 1928. 

Ve do not regard the point as ispertant, The evidence 
amply shows that the eonutract was made December 11, 1928. In 
equity oractice the rule concerning variance is not strictly en- 
forced and cannet be inveked ageinat a decree where the eroor is 


sufficient te suprert a claim for relief, although the bil] may

Apesrently the chanceller was of the epinion that the cone 
tracts vere made Kay 11, 1925, or July 5, 1924. The Letters written 
en these days by complainant te John Degnan, Ine. ,were simply quetae 
tion letters offering ite supplice at certain prices for any pre- 
posed work. At the time these letters were reesived John Degnan, 
Ine., had no contraet for the plusbing work on this building; ite 
ecentract for this work was not made until Auguet 22, 1925. Complaine 
ant furnished the fixtures in accordance with the order of John 
Degnan, Inc., of December 11, 1°24. 

We eanmet agree with the eontention of def dante that there 
were two contracts, Manifestly there was only one contract te fure 
nish the plusting and fixtures for the building in queation. The 
fact that after complainant had executed most of the comtract and had 
refused te deliver the remainder ef the goods unless it sheuld be ase 
sured of receiving payment, woleh assurance was given by Paschen 
Brothers, the general contractors, 4id net divide the contract inte 
two eontracte, The materials were delivered in econneet Lon with ene 
joo in one building and cannet reasonably be d4iviczed inte twe sepae 
rate contracts, A somewhat sinilear cueetion wae raised in Balleable 
Iron Co, y, Brennan,174 Ill, App. 33, where it was contended there 
were two seoarate contracts, one for the installation ef a bath and 
toilet and the other for the installation of a heating plant. ‘The 
court held against this on the ground thet beth jobs were Jene on 
the same building, fer the same owners, and usually done by the esme 
workmen ani sre known as plumbers' jobs. See also Seiji _v, Somash,

Defendant says complainant seuld set have stated the age 
count as beginning April 1, 1990, but should bays eommenced the 
acecunt st the dates when 1t first gesuenced delivering *rouguing 
in*®* material to John Degnen, Inc., and that semplainant hed ne right 
te apply payments received from John Degnan, inc,, on this account, 
ae the richts of third parties, Paschen Brothers, are involved, The 
master preverly found thet, commencing September 1, 1924, and at 
intervels thereafter, cowplaineant delivered large amounte of 
"roughing in” materinl te John Degran, inc., but taat complainant 
was paid in full for this material and none of it is inciuded in 
the claim for mechanic's lien. ¥urthermere, there was np éewigna- 
tion as to hor the paymerte received by complainant sheuld be ape 
plied. it is the rule that where the debtor does not so indicate, 
the creditor may apply such paywmeats where he chooses, idese y, 
Hentze, 326 111. 634. 

As a further defense it is asserted that certain quantities 
of pipe delivered te John Degman, inc., on September 1, 1925, were 
net used in the building. The evidence shewe that the materials 
were delivered to the slace of business 6F John Degnan, inc., and 
were used by 1% in enother buliding upon wliien it then had the 
plumbing contract; complainant had no motice that said meterials 
were to be used in thia other building and they were bilied te the 
general secount ef John Degnan, Ine, The evidence shows that John 
Degnan, Inc., paid this inveice and no lien is claimed for it. 

Other points are sreaented upon wiieh we de net think it 
necensary te comment as they do not affect the merite of the cause. 
The master found the facte and stated the account correetly, and it 
was errer to sustain the exceotions te hin repert, 

decres is therefore reversed and the cause remanded with 


directions to enter a decree in accordance with the recommendations 
of the master in chancery.

686. The contention of defendent in this respect ie net eontre- 
verted by osuneel for plaintiff in their brief, but they contend 
that since it was charged in the fourth egumt of the declaration 
that the defendant taxieab sompany pereitted the taxicab in 
question te be overated Without good and sufficient brakes, in 
direct vieleticn of the atatute, this constituted negligcenes on 
the part of the eab caupany irrespeetive of the sendact of the 
ariver of the aab, for whieh pisintiff waa cititled te reeever. 
The 44fficulty with thie eentention le that there is ne evidence 
in the resord tending, in any wasmer, to shov that the brakes ef 
the taxicab were not in good working crver, nor is there any 
evidence in the record that the brakes om the Sedge car were not 
in good condition. The only evidence om the question of brakes is 
that they “howled” or “squeaked” when the driver ef the Dodge ear 
eppiied them, Thies in no vay indicated that tavy vere aut of 
repair, 

While counsel for defendant argues at consiserable lesgth 
that the fury might weal believe that the “squeak” of the brakes 
came from the brakee of the tasicab aid net from the brakes of the 
Pedge car, ve think this eontention ia centrary te all the evidense 
on thie question, Sut im no event gould it be materisi because 
there is me evidence that the brakes were out ef order or Jdofective 
merely beenuse they "equesaked® when applied. Hapealaily is this 
true ae anolied te tae evidence is the instant case, 

Suet we have just asid im regard to the brakes is suffi- 
sient aliswer to plaintiff's ecententien that the eourt ecommitted no

defendant desires to take issue on guch partioular facta, he must 
ao it by especial plea.” ‘The court then cites a number of autherie 
ties and in atating the nature of the rule eatd (p.279): “It is net 
@ rule which applies oniy te railresd and municipal eorgeration and 
guasi public corporations.“ ihe court there further said (p.28%): 
"The pleintiff in errer (defendant) complsaiae of tas refusal of 
three inetructions asked, They were properiy refused, Tor they 
were eredicated on the theory that the relutionship ef Fleyd (4e- 
foudant's sen) te the plaintiff in error, as his servant and agent, 
in driving the autemebile wae not admitted, whiah wafnuad to be 
ineorrest.* 

We think the Bueller case was decided on the theory that 
the son, in driving the automobile ot the time in cueetion, was the 
agent of hie father and it wae Aeld that this fset wae not denied 
by plea of the general iesue; while in the instant case, the eharge 
in the declaration ie that beth defendsnts committed the #rongiul 
act. They are charged to be joint tort feasors, the question of 
principal and agesit ie net in the case, 

In Carlson v. Joineon, wupra, (263 ILL. 586) whieh wae an 
action for pereonal injuries, the cowrt said the axended declare. 
tien charged that the defendant “by his servante and agente, wea 
engaged in resedeling and repairing s bullding ewned by him and 
that certain men were engaged in working upen the reef of said 
building; that defendant “ey his guid servants and agents did a6 
carelessly and negligently preceed clth the work” that slaintifr 
wae injured, The plea was not guilty. Befere the écmneunenh of 
the trial defendant asked lenve te file a special plea by which he 
sought te set up that defendant, Johneon, wae an independent son- 
tractor. from what we guid, we think it ebvieus tuat the allega- 


tienes of the declaration in the Jobnson ease are net at ail similar 


to the charge sade in the declaration in the ease at bar.

were given @xeest twee which the ceurt refused; that one of these 
inetructions wae a feint instruction om behalf ef beth defendants 
and aid net indicate te the jury “that the jury should consider 
S@parately the liability of elther defendant." ‘There ie some merit 
in plaintiff's contention. After the jury was eworn, the defendants 
aid withdraw their special plea, denying special ernership, operation 
and control ef the autarobiie, ond meade a Joint motion at the sleee 
of plaintiff's evidence and at the close of ali the evidenee tendered 
an instrustion to find “the defendanta® net guilty. But whether 
this action on the part of tie defendants lulled plaintiff into the 
belief that the ownership and operation of the autonebile by beth 
defendants wae net controverted and that only tke ercnecfwl set was 
denied, does not acpear, ner is there any intimation tuat claintiff 
eould have produced witneeres or evidence of any eharaeter tending 
te show that defendant Charles Stern wae in any way Liable fer the 
unfortunate secident in which plaintiff was severely injured and Bie 
autexsobile grestiy damaged, Kereover, defo: dante, by their offered 
instruction whieh the court refused, seught te have the court tell 
the jury that the charge made by plaintiif againet defendants was 
that defendants owned and operated the autemwhile at the time of the 
@ollision, and umless the jury believed from the ‘evidence that the 
automobile wae operated and sontrolled by beth defendanta, as 
oharged, then they should find the defendants set ,ulity. 

Se think the resord falle to dis¢lese that piaintirr was 
prejudiced by the defendants’ action im withdrawing their special 
Plea. Since the law in effect at the time of tre aceident in this 
case and at the time ef the trial srevente a fudgment against two 
perame te be affirmed where it is wrong againet one of them, and 
singe ve hold tuat there is ne #vidwmee against the defendant charles 
Stern, the judgment eannet stand. 

the judgment of the Superior court of Geok esunty is reversed 
and the cause remanded,

that sueh summona, including the sheriff's return the eon, vag 
exhibited to the court at the time the d¢favlt wae taken and the 
Geeree entered, we are uneble to egree with defendant's eentent ton 
that the deeree should be reversee by uz om a question of leew 
while the cnuse is pendimg in the “uperier court on uncetexmined 
issues of fact on the identical ouestion presented here, av wohl 
ee On other questions raised im the trial ecurt om defendant ta 
petition te vacate the decrees “e are of the apinion, rather, 
that thie writ of errer is unjustified in view ef the fact that 
éefendant on its own motion secured leave to defend and in defending 
this cause om ite merits in the Superior court. ‘The esse new 
etangs contimued generally im the cours below om ¢efendant's motien 
and it may on notice of either party be called up and reinatated 
for final determination. “@ ara compelled te the conclucion that 
in the present state of the reeard the deeree ef “pril 17» 1931, 
is not final ond that the enuse is «till pending and undictermined 
im the Cuperior court. 

Im the view we take of thig couse we deem it unnecessary 
to discuss other points vhich have been urged.

repeatedly requested to moke sulteble repeira te fulfill the terms 
of their contract defendants have refused te do ae to Plaintifits 
damage of $190. lefendonts neither filed em affidevit of mex ite 
mor effered any evidence upon the trial. 

Plaintiff's theory in that he had a right te reeever for 
breach of the contract by defendants in failing te provide essential 
items of vonstruetion ae epecified, and by reason of defeetive 
materials furnished and poor workmunship employed an eertain parte 
of the building, and that there was ample competent evidence te 
justify the verdict of the jury and the judgment of the court. 

Defendemts contend that demages due to the alleged defeots 
vere mot proven upom the trial by competent evidenees, and that the 
trial court erred in foiling to sive ony imetructiona ts the jury. 
To the contention of defendants that the trial court fatleo te 
inatruet the jury it is aufficient emexer te way that no inetruetions 
vere olther offered cr suggested te the cewrt by them, and inasmuch 
@s Ghe bill of exeeption: feila ts disclece any obicetion on the 
part of ¢efendamtea to the Zollure of the court te lmetruet the jury 
they cannot be henrd to urge that point here for the first time. 

The aelient frets as they sppocred from the evidenee are 
that the gedar posta were net painted with ereosote; that the mantel 
Wage Grucked when the building was turned over to plaintiff, thet the 
sidings reef and walls adjoiming the cuimmcy were not properly sealed, 
thereby permitting the rain to enter, that, inasmuch ae the lower 
portion of the buildimg wae fully enclosed, pleimtirf did not diseower 
the fuilure to creosote the eeder ports under (he building until a 
few months after he tock pessession of same «whem he dug under the 
budiding te construct a storage room? that many complaints were made 
and defendants requested to remedy the defeets in constructiong that 
upon dcfendante’ demand for the laat £37 duc them om the contract

Wiarah named ag beneficiary on the face of the eertifieate, 

The group life insurance policy contract between the 
association and complainant containes the following among other 
provisionas 

“This policy, the application of the assceistion and 
the incivicual applieutione, if any, of the members insured, 
comatitute the entire contract between the parties hereto.” 

‘amy member insured hereunder gay upon uriiten request 
signed by the member designate a new beneficiary aa often ag 
é¢siredg such dewlgnation to become effective emly upon receipt 
of same at the Home Office of the Comparny 

The certificates of insurance icsued te the seeotient 
under the group pelicy or contract contained thie provisions 

“In the event of the death of any insured member at any 
time or place, from any cause whetevever, the amount of insurance 
then in foree upon hie lite will be paid to the last duly deaige 
mated beneficiary or beneficlaries., The beneficiary may be changed 
at any time uncer and subject te the terme of the policy .* 

It nleo appeared that complainant paid to Hattic Marehts 
wife of cecedent, the $1,900 ineuranee covered by the weeond ceortie 
ficate, and that the basis ef thie action is the GL,0Oo covered by 
the first certificate which the chancellor ordered paic to Lucy 
Malthe 

Defendant Hattie Mersh contends that when the insured 
made hig application for the additional £1,500 insurence he 
Gefinitely intended to make her the benefieiary of the original 
91,000 as well as the additional @1,000 insuraneeg that veoth 
snouts aa well as the name of Lucey Hargh, benefieinzy, appeared 
om the application card presented to him for the additional 
insurance, and that before signims some he struck owt the mame 
“Lusy" and wrote in the name “Mettie*; that with the name of imey 
Marsh stricken cut and the amount of insurance of whieh she way 
beneficiary remaining in she was thereby intentionally eliminated

acéitional ineuranee conatituted auch written request as to the 
original policy; ond thet inaemuch as the applicntion wag 
apecifieslly wade a part of the Gomtract of insurance 4t wag 
intended to and éid cover 511 of the inaurance whieh he carried 
with complainant under tts aroup policy contract with the 
aeseciction. 

Defendant Lucy Smith’ « theory is that she was made 
beneficiary of the original 19000 certifieate before Nettie 
Marsh beenme decedent! g wife; that the application for and the 
iguuenee of the certifieate tor 49000 additional ingurence in 
no way affected herrighte; thet the fact that Mattie Harsh was 
the last named bencfieciory in point of time aid not eanecel the 
original declaration of venefi¢iaryseoncerning Liself with the 
segond policy onlyg that the provisions of the inouranes contract 
apecified that a member might “upon «ritten request sigaed by 
the menber designate a new benefielarys" that it was necencary 
te order and direet the company formuily, in writings, te change 
the beneficiary befere such chemge sould ve efferted, that this 
wag not Gone by decedents and that therefore the first appliceticn 
Genignating lucy March aw beneficiary waz still im full foree and 
effect ot the time of ineured's doathe 

There ia wething im the record te inétieate that when 
decedent signed the application for additional ineuwrenee he had in 
contemplation anything except the additional imewrance. It is 
true that the application form filled owt as heretefere set Lox tit, 
before it wae prenented te him for his signature, esrried a 
memorandum of the original group policy showing the amount of 
game, the date applied for and the amoumt of the weekly premium. 
However, in the absenee af evidence to the contrary it is a 
'xyengomable inference that the only purpose of complainant in 
listing the originel imeurange on thia e¢eond application waa for

policy, natursily aseumings, having received no request theresefore 
te change his beneficiary, that lucy wee Bie wife and that he 
would desire te name hey beneficiary of his second poliey sles. 

it ie earnestly contended that the inaured intended ey 
his set in changing the names to climisate Lucy mith entirely

aifficulty of thie position fe that beth in waking the change and

a written request on cumplainant to change the beneficiary of his 
tixet poliey would be by a forged conwiruetion to make 1% something

anee disclosed his intention to mike such change. “ven though 
thet was his intention ond he meant to so dieelose it by hie 
conduet, nothing that he did, in oury opinion, had the offset of 
designating « mew beneficiury under the firat policy. The 
provisions of his contract of incuronee set forth the plan by 
which the reserved right to change the beneficiary might be 
made effective. The generai rule supported by the great weight 
of authority ie that where the policy prescribes am’ reagulates 
the method of changing beneficiaries any attempt or amy imtent 
to make such change im any other manner is ineffeetuaie (Retxge 
politan Life ines Cos ve Brown, 222 Ey. 2lie} ‘he right to 
change the beneficiary, while permitted by the policy, ia Limited 
by ite terms, @ substantial compliance with which eomnet be dispensed 
withe Freund ve Freund, 214 [lis 18%, states the doctrine on this 
aubjeet which, in ite application to this ease, inhibite our holding 
that any change of beneficiary of the firet peliey wae offeebed by 
deeedent’s acts im conneetion with the application for the ecound 
policy. (Geghey ve Miller, 157 [ile Appe 278+) 

It appeared that Lucey “mith never had the firet poliey 
im her posseesion and did not even know of ite exiatence. The 
fact of the policy never having been deliveres to her, but remnining 
im the posseevion of Mereh, detractea nothing from the effeet of hia 
dircetion fer the payment of its proecevda te her. Her olaim of 
right to the fund does not reat upon gontract, but upon a direotion 
for ite payment te here (Highiand v. Highland, gupra.) We are 
constrained to hold that there waa ample justifiontion for the 
court's conclaugion that lucy ‘mith wae the rightful beneficiary

Plaintiff Condon that the Suttle Zyuipment Company was mot properly

Conden preposed te defendant that plaintiffs would give him the boat

Plaintiffs contend that by defendant's epecial plea ef

court erred in admitting evidence az te the service @isimed to have 
been performed other than as stated in Rie affidavit of merite; that 
the cours erred in giving te the jury eertain repugnant instruetionas

brief that thin court whould dileregare 44 ae ne preeft was offered 
under it. efendant them ineista that hig afficavis of merits 
refutes the idea of tne aude eof the best io him and contains ne 
aesertion ef payment for it by wim. tf: is ewfficient anewer te 
thie contention to quete from bie afiicayit of merite oo fcllews: 
Geyeoes ant naye theh he ke the Ssfendans ia. tne chore entitled 
qnueej -Bat he xeowlyedc the suid moter teat in sadé declaration 
wentioned amd sleo reecived » bik of cole for the somey that 

he paid the full consideration therefexy * © *.” 

That cefeadant's insistence here and om the trial that 
imetesc of hie work being the sancideration for the boat, the 
Voat was the consideration fer kis werk, vase and is an afterthought, 
is demonstrated by the follewing feem Rie affidavit of merite: * thet 
the conaiderstion fer the trenefexy of the boat sas work deme and te 
be dome by this affiant, #ie." 

It is obvious to us and the plain language of the affidavit 
of merits supports our conclusion, that when the «ffidavit ef merits 
was filed 1% was defendant's purpese be and he did admit the purchase 
and delivery of the boat, but disputed the priee amd the methed and 
Ghavacter of payment. 

His effidavit of merite sintes “that the consideration 
for said boat waa mot the alieged man of 99,250; that mo definite 
wum wee fixedy that the market value of said boat 2% the time of the 
transfer wes less than $6,000." An inegection of the affidavit of 
merits demonetrates conclusively that it eet forth the defense of 
payment and only that defense. 

Plaintiffs made qut o prims fnute case by presenting 
evidenes that defendant agreed and premised to pay them $9,250 
eash for the beat. ‘The burden then devolved upen cefendamt under 
his affiduvit of merits to chow, if he could, that the amount and 
character of the consideration to be paid by him were different

which cdecument it appecre wae “read to the court” om the heorimg of

to Ue that the court, in passing upom the three motions as firat 
above mentioned, should have limited iteelf solely te the consid 
erntion of the then existing record (wine, the proposed ten

(during the argument as above sentioned): “the hearing eas not 
open to the offer of evidence.” 

for the vouachs indicated the order or Judgment of the

taat there showld be another trial ef the exne, Aw we vier the 
pleadings aud evidencey there are two major issues involved, vis? 
(1) “hether any truck ewoed er operated by defendant was in any 
way involved in the seeldout, und (2), even if ik be conceded that 
@ truck of defendant waa segligentiy and improperly parked on 
Addison atrest in front of the barber shop im the wasaer chewr, 
whether auch truek, ao parked, proximately cauced ex contributed 
to the necident and té plaintiff's injuries. Ga beth of theee 
issues, im our opinion, the verdict is net sufficiently sustained 
ty the evidence. 

in view of our heldings ag above, it is unececnaary for 
us to dlseues defendant*s esuneeis' further contemtious, (1) that 
she court erred in giving to the jury evriaiu imetructionsa offered 
by plaintiff; (2) that the dammges awarded by the jury are greasly 
exeeavives and (3) that certain sentec concuet of the judge curing

it sufficiently appears that the wreximate eause of the collisions

attemmey, In this gourt the etete's atigeney ie defending the 
seoord. There ta mot the slightest merit im the inatumt contest lon, 
if it ean be enlled a contentian. 

Defendant contends tet “the cours erred in atuiicing 
imcompetent evidenee .* ‘ter a gareful reading of the reeard we 
find that we evijenee ean introduced on bevels of the Seople over 
the objection of defendant,  lvfendant pecially refere to the

it is in securd with the testimeny of defendent. In mapper’ of 
the inetent ¢ontention defendant ineigte thet there is ne vhowing

purposes ef this writ of errer it la meceasery te suete only the 
Seliowing from our opinion: 


“Se mow come to the claim ef the appellants (Louis 
Garabelli amd im Carabelli) that the chanesller erred in net 
providing in the dweres thet they were entitled to contri tution 

sinst appellee (Anton ?resern) for the wroportion of the 

ewligations which appellee legally and ecuitebly shewld have 
peid, appeliece centeméing Iomone was « mere volunteer ami was 
mot ontitlec te be subreceted to any richts «hich Coburn en 
Buchhelster had egaiast him, and thet by redeeming nis title is 
freed of the Coburn Iniebtedness and the Buchheister judgment, 
anc he retains Ris original statue in the real estate, ‘Ue 
think there is mo merit im appellee's contention. The sbligntion 
to diucharge the Coburn indebtudmess was mutual, the appellees as 
well as the appellents being equclly bound te pay that indebted 
HGSs, ani the Suchhelster judgment was the acle obligation of the 
appellee, and a redeeming creditor whe redesme in conformity with 
the statute is mot 6 mers volunteer, The right of contri ttien 
rests upon the principle that where all sre ecually liable fer 
the payment of 2 debt ell are hound ecusliy te contribute to that 

(hedge ¥. Dobbs, 254 Ill. 1309 133); ami where one 
tenant im caamom hac remered an incumbranes from the common 
estate the other tenents must contritute te the extent of their 
reapective interests, and to secure each contrilution an eowitabhe 
lien upon their intersats of the sem character with that <hich 
has been removed will be enforced by a court of chantery, The 

tenant im common, in order to secure contribution, 
substitated to the seme lien which he hasredeemed (Titsvorth

m4 the decree the chancellor has absolved appellee fram mg

ah unconscionable advontage and work great injustice to the

“The deeree of the circuit court will be reversec and

in which judguent eae obtained,"* 

Complainant contends, in its original brie®, that "under 
the sllegatione in Paragraphe 7 and & ef the Amended BLLL, tae 
gonveyance by Herbert Lubin te Karie Lubin, and the conveyanee in 
trust by karie Lubin to the Chicage Title and Trust Company, eon 
atituted, ae between Herbert iubin ont Barie lubin, one and the 
same transaction. Likewhee, uhder these allegutions, the convey- 
anee from Herbert Lubin to Maric Lubin wae for the purpose ef net 
only defrauding the crediters of Aerbert Lubin, but Karfe Lubin 
‘oresent and future.' therefore, under the allegations of the 
bill, the two conveyances, constituting ene and the same trangage 
tien, so far ae derbert iubin and barie imbin are concerned, vere 
for the pursose of defrauding the erediters of karte Lubin ‘sresent 
and future.'* Defendants stube that they are willing te adopt, for 
the purveses of this appeal, *the contention of the sesplainent thet 
the tranefer of funds from Herbert iubin to Karie Lubin snd from her 
to the Ghieago Title and Trust Gemcpany, as Trustee, constituted an 
entire and indivisible traneaastien ani beeame in fact o transfer

Fruetes, Upen that eseumptien se may regard Zarie Llubin's partici-~ 
pation in the transaction in the nature ef a conduit through which 
the funds easeed.” It wlll be noted toast while the comelainant 
eontends that the conveyance from Herbert Lubin to varie Lubin, 
and from her to the Chicage Title and Trust Company, as trustee, 
was “one and the same transaction,* it does net ask that the sesign- 
ment from Herbert Lubin of the funda in the Sesbeard National Bank, 
of Kew York, to Harie iubin be volded, but merely esecke to have the 
property invelved reveat in Marie Lubin #6 that it may beeome avali- 
able for the satisfaction ef compluimantte judgment. in ite original

Gen. No. 8690 Agenda No. 2. 
IN THE 
APPELLATE COURT OF ILLINOIS 
SECOND DISTRICT 


<2 ae coe 


February Term, A.D. 1954. 


The People of the State of 
Illinois, 

Defendant in irror 

Writ of Error to the County 
VS. Court of Lake County. 

James Ryan and John Twohig, 

Plaintiffs in Error. 
DOVE, Jd. 


A jury in the County Court of Lake County found plaintiffs 
in error guilty of removing the manufacturer's serial number on 
an Automatic Remingtm rifle, as charged in an Information there- 
tofore filed in that court, After denying motions for a new 
trial and in arrest of judgnent, each defendant was, by the cuurt, 
sentenced to the Illinois State Farm at Vandalia, to serve ninety 
days and to pay a fine of $100.00. To review this judgment, each 
defendant sued out this Writ of Error and contends that the verdict 
is contrary to the evidence, that the trial court erroneously in- 
structed the jury and that their motion for a new trial should 
have been granted on the ground of newly discovered evidence. 

The evidence discloses that about four o'clock in the afternoon 
of April 25, 1933, plaintiffs in error were in an automobile and 
drove through the Village of Wauconda on Route 176, At the inter- 
section of Route 80, there was a stop sign which they passed 
unheeded. <A highway police officer overtook them and placed them 
under arrest. At that time Ryan was driving and Two_hig was sitting 
in the rear seat of the automobile and an Automatic high-powered 
Remington rifle, Model 8, was on the floor at Twohig's feet. It 


was loaded with five dum dum bullets and an identifying manufacturer's

serial number was completely obliterated. Both were drunk and 
in reply to a question by the officer as to what they were doing 
with the rifle, said they were hunting pheasants. Plaintiffs 
in error thereupon assaulted the officer, attempted to run over 
him with their automobile in their emdeavor to escape, and it 
was only after a ten mile chase over a gravel road at a rapid 
rate of spped, approximately 70 miles per hour, that they were 
re-captured. 

Counsel for plaintiffs in error insist that the People in 
this case relied upon the provision of the Statute to the effect 
that possession of a firearm upon which a number has been defaced 
is prima facie evidence that the person in whose possession the 
gun is found has made the alteration and inasmuch as both defendants 
denied that they obliterated the number, this presumption was thereby 
overcome and the court should have directed a verdict in their favor. 
Plaintiffs in error did testify in their own behalf. Mr. Ryan 
testified that he was driving the car; that he first saw the gun 
in the office of the Justice of the Peace in Wauconda after his 
arrest; that it was not his gun and he did not know whose it was 
and that he did not remove or obliterate any number therefram. 
Mr. Twohig testified that he did not see the gun in the car the 
day he was arrested or know it was there, but that he first saw 
it at Wauconda after his arrest. He admitted that he attempted 
there to hide it under his coat, but said he was drunk and was 
acting in fun at the time. He likewise testified that he did 
not remove or obliterate any number thereon. Whether or not this 
presumption that the defendants, in whose possession this gun Was 
fourid, altered the number thereon, was overcame by the evidence 
was a question of fact for the jury to determine and its verdict

not know the gun was in the car and that the first time he saw 

it was in Wauconda after his arrest, it was also in evidence that 
when questioned at the time of their arrest, by the officer who 
made the arrest, they did not deny the ownership of the gun but 
stated that they had it for the purpose of hunting pheasants. 

It is true they were drunk, but they were sober enough to under- 
stand they were being arrested and they endeavored to effectuate 

an escape. The jury were the judges of the facts in this case and 
the credibility of the witmesses and unless there appears fram all 
the evidence a reasonable doubt of the guilt of the defendants, 

the jury were warranted in finding them guilty. There was no error 
in refusing to direct a verdict of not guilty for the defendants, 
nor can it be said that the verdict is contrary to the weight of 
the evidence, 

It is next contended that the court erred in giving instruction 
number nine, which embodied the statutory definition of an accessory 
and then concluded "and if the jury find fram the evidence, beyond 
a reasonable doubt, that the defendant, James Ryan, did aid, abet, 
assist, advise or encourage the perpetration of the crime as charged 
in the information, then the jury are justified in finding said 
defendant guilty." Counsel admits that this instruction has been 
approved in People v. Nowicki, 330 111. 381, but insist that it 
was error to give it because it names James Ryan, and by so doing 
assumes that the erime was committed by Twohig. According to the 
testimony of the highway officers, the gun was at the feet of Twohig 
in the car which Ryan was driving. Under all the evidence and facts 
and circumstances in evidence, we do not believe that this instruction 
is subject to the criticism directed against it and the court did 
not err in giving it. The People v. Arbuthnot, 355 Ill. 577. 

The instruction upon circumstantial evidence properly stated 
the law as counsel for plaintiffs in error concede and it is not 


pointed out in what particular it could have been misleading to

the jury. Instruction number eight told the jury that flight of 
a defendant soon after the commission of an offense is to be 
considered by the jury with the other evidence in the case in 
determining the question of guilt. Counsel for plaintiffs in 
error say there was no flight shown after the commission of the 
erime charged in this information. The evidence, however, is that 
after the officer placed plaintiffs in error under arrest and 
had had the conversation about the gun and took possession of 
it that then plaintiffs in error sought to escape. There was 
no error in giving this instruction. People v. White, 3$1 Ill. 356. 

Instruetion number seven is as follows: "The court im tructs 
you in the language of the Statute, that no person shall change, 
alter, remove or obliterate the name of the maker, model, manufactur- 
er's number or other mark of identification on any firearm. Possess-= 
ion of any firearm upon which any such mark shall have been changed, 
altered, removed or obliterated, shall be prima facie evidence that 
the possessor has changed, altered, removed or obliterated the same." 
Counsel for plaintiffs in error insists that this instruction defines 
more than one offense and by not including any definition or meaning 
of the words 'prim facie', it would be likely to confuse and mis- 
lead the jury. The use of the words 'prima facie’ in instructi ons 
has frequently been condemned. People v. MeCurrie, 337 Ill. 290: 
People v. Sikes, 328 Ill. 64: Grosh v. Acom, 525 Ill. 474: Johnson 
v. Pendergast, 308 Ill. 255: People v. Tate, 316 Ill. 52 and 
Riddle v. Mansager, 254 Ill. App. 68, In People v. Beck, 505 Ill. 
595, however, an instruction using these words was approved, and 
while this instruction does define more than one offense, it is 
in the language of the Statute and in our opinion no reversible 
error was committed in giving this instruction. 

In support of plaintiffs in error's motion for a new trial, 
the affidavit of Lillian Ryan and Wm. Scott Stewart, the attorney 
representing plaintiffs in error,was submitted to the Court. In 
her affidavit, Miss Ryan stated that shortly after the arrest of 


her brother, she visited Wauconda and the surrounding territory and

made inquiry of various persons in an endeavor to learn the move- 
ments of her brother during the day of his arrest. That her brother 
had informed her that at the time of his arrest, he was so drunk 

that he had no recollection of the places he visited except that 

he remembered going to several road houses and drank beer and whiskey 
therein, That following his conviction by the jury on May 25, 1955, 
the Chicago American, on the following day, carried a news article 
concerning the trial and at noon on that day she received a telephone 
call from someone who refused to give his name, advising her that 

the rifle which was offered and admitted in evidence upon the trial 
of this cause, had been purchased from Hibbard, Spencer and Bartlett, 
wholesale hardware dealers in Chicago, some years before. Thah an 
examination of the gun would disclose that it also had sergal numbers 
on the inside, and that from these the name of the person who owned 
the gun at the time the outside serial number was removed could be 
ascertained, as the then ower had taken the gun to a gunsmith for 
repairs, but that affiant had been unable to locate this gunsmith 
but coneluded that if she was given an oppatmity to run down this 
informatio, she would be in a position to prove that the numbers 

on this gun had been removed a long time prior to the time that the 
law under which this Infomation was drawn went into effect. Mr. 
Stewart, in his affidavit, stated that on May 26, 1935, as soon as 

he received the information contained in the affidavit of Miss Ryan, 
he immediately got in touch with Mr. Setchel, a gun expert in the 
employ of Hibbard, Spencer and Bartlett Company and was informed 

that his company hed discontinued keeping any record of any serial 
numbers of guns similar to the one od fered in evidence in this case 
and had no record of the purchase of any rifle similar to the one 
involved. In this affidavit Mr. Stewart states that Mr. Setchel 
explained to him the manner in which serial numbers were placed 
inside of guns of this model and thereafter affiant went to Waukegan 
and in the wesence of the State's Attorney inspected the gun and 


found that it bore on the inside in two places and also stamped on tke

af the stock, serial No. 64523. That affiant thereupon wired the 
manufacturers at Bridgeport, Connecticut, requesting the name 

of the dealer and date of sale of this gun as shown by the records 
of that Company, but was informed by the company that it lad not 
kept such a record for several years. By this affidavit it also 
appears that Mr. Stewart was not affarded an opportunity of 
examining the gun prior to the trial. 

The only suggestion made by counsel in connection with the 
showing made by plaintiffs in error for a new trial on the gound 
of newly discovered evidence is that the witness for the People 
who testified that the serial number of this gun did not appear 
on the inside of this model was mistaken, as the subsequent 
examination of the gun demonstrated. Neither this fact or any 
other matter contained in the affidavits of Lillian Ryan a@ 
plaintiffs in error's distinguished counsel would have warranted 
the trial cow t in awarding a new trial. 

This record is free from reversible error and the judgment 
of the County Court of Lake County is affirmed. 
JUDGMENT AFFIRMED.

MARTHA C. HEDRICK 
ROSS H. HEDRICK 
Witness" 

On July 5, 1930, Ross Hedrick renewed his $1,000.00 note and 
on October 3, 1930 he again renewed it, delivering the renewal notes 
to the Exchange National Bank. On August 26, 1930, the $6,000.00 
note was renewed by Ross Hedrick and these instruments and the 
$2250.00 note executed by Ross Hedrick and his mother Martha Cc. 
Hedrick upon which his mother had paid $750.00 on October 9, 1930 
were held by the Exchange Natkonal Bank of Polo when it went into 
liquidation prior to October 20, 1930. Subsequently The First 
National Bank of Polo, Illinois was organized, and on October 20, 
1930 some of the assets of the Exchange National Bank were, for a 
valuable consideration, duly assigned and transferred by the Exchange 


— 


Netional Bank to the First National Bank of Polo. A mong the 


— 


assets so assigned were these notes of Ross Hedrick and his mother 
and this instrument of guaranty dated July 2, 1950. On February 28, 
1931 Ross Hedrick executed and delivered to the First National Bank 
of Polo his note for $6,000.00 in renewal of his former note for a 
like amount, and on May 19, 1931 executed and delivered to The First 
National Bank of Polo his note for $1500.00 representing the balance 
due on the note which had been signed by himself and his mother. 
Subsequently Martha C. Hedrick died and The Fyrst National Bank of 
Polo having gone into the hands of a Receiver, appellee, as such 
Receiver, filed in the County Court of Ogle County its claim against 
her dutete. The claim as filed had attached thereto a copy of the 

: note of February 28, 1931 for $6,600.00 and a copy of the note of 

| May 19, 1931 for $1500.00, and recited that the amount represented 

P by these notes wes due and unpaid and is a claim against the estate 


of Martha G. Hedrick because she guaranteed to the Exchange National

Bank of Polo, assignor of The First National Bank of Polo, the pay- 
ment thereof, The claim then set forth the guaranty verbatim and 
stated that the original notes were made payable to the Exchange 
National Bank, but tefore they became due they were purchased, with 
other assets, by the First National Bank of Polo and were renewed 
in the name of The First National Bank. 

In order to reduce Ross's indebtedness to the maximum sum 
allowed by law and thus permit the newly organized First National Bank 
to take over his notes as assets, Martha Hedrick executed and de- 
livered to the First National Bank her note for $1750.00. Approximately 
a year later the First National Bank tock judgment ageinst Ross upon 
his several notes and this resulted in Ross filing a voluntary peti« 
tion in bankruptcy and he was subsequently edjudged a bankruot. The 
Hearing in the County Court resulted in a judgment for the Adminis- 
trator and upon an appeal to the Circuit Court a jury was waived 
and a judgment rendered in favor of the claimant for $6492.41, and 
the Administrator of the Estate of Martha Hedrick, deceased, brings 
the record to this court for review by appeal. 

Appellant first insists that this was a conditional guaranty 
on the part of Marthe ¢. Hedrick and unless and until the Exchange 
National Bank advanced or loaned additional money to Ross Hedrick, 
she was not liable upon this instrument. That the word "advancements" 
as therein used meant future loans and that inasmuch as the evidence 
disclosed that no additional sums were loaned Ross Hedrick, the 
guaranty was without consideration. 

In the construction of contracts, courts will give to the 
language employed the meaning intended by the parties. At the time 
this instrument was executed Ross Hedrick was indebted to the Bank 
in the sum of $9250.00 as therein stated. The Bank wanted this loan 
secured. When two of the notes matured, Martha Hedrick signed them 


with her son and the guaranty was obtained in order to obviate the

necessity of having the mother sign each note or a renewal thereof 

as they became due. At the time the assets of the Exchange Bank 
were transferred to the newly organized First National Bank, Mrs. 
Hedrick gave her further note in order to reduce the indebtedness 

of her son. In our opinion this guaranty was absolute and uncon- 
ditional. It recited that Ross Hedrick owed the Exchange Bank 
$2250.00 at the time the instrument was signed. It contained an 
absolute, unqualified guaranty on the part of Mrs. Hedrick to pay 

the notes evidencing that amount. The notes evidencing these 

amounts were canceled and surrendered and new instruments extending 
the time of payment thereof were executed by Ross and accepted by the 
Bank, This guaranty was assigned, for a valuable consideration, by 
the Exchange Bank to the First National Bank, and thereafter the First 
National Bank, relying upon this instrument and being the beneficiary 
thereof, surrendered to Ross the notes which he had executed to the 
Exchange Bank, and accepted from himnew notes due at future dates. 
The principal debtor became a bankrupt and the indebtedness having 
matured, the estate of the guarantor is liable therefor. Any act which 
ts a benefit to one party and a disadvantazce to the other is a val- 
uable consideration. Schlatter v. Triebel, 284 Ill. 412; Pedaple v. 
Commercial Life Insurance Co., 247 Ill, 92; Buchanan v. International 
Bank, 78 Ill. 500; Byrch v. Hubbard, 148 Ill. 164. Martha Hedrick 
executed and delivered this guaranty to the Exchange National Bank 

in lieu of executing renewal notes as the several notes of her son 
which the bank then held became due. Mrs. Hedrick knew of the in- 
debtedness of her son to the bank. She must have gonsidered it to 

be to her advantage to assume the obligation ccnteined in this in- 
strument by reason of which the bank did not press her son for pay- 
ment or require her signature to the renewal notes, but was content 
to meky rely upon her guaranty instead, and this benefit to Mrs. 
Hedrick and the corresponding disadvantage to the bank constituted

the consideration for the execution of this guaranty. 

This instrument of guaranty, while not negotiable, could be 
assigned so as to give the assignee an equitable title thereto, and 
it passed as an incident to the assignment of the notes, 28 ¢. J. 
943. Usually the transfer of a debt carries with it, as an incident, 
all the securities which the assignor may have for its payment. 

SR. Cc. L. 979. The assignment of these notes by the Exchange Bank 
to the First National Bank carried with it the guaranty, and vested 
in the assignee a right to sue upon the guaranty in its own name.

IN THE 
APPELLATE C OURT OF ILLINOIS 
SECOND DISTRICT 


October Term, AD. 1952. 


Lawrence H. Williams, Admr. of the 
Estate of Stanley Buches, degeased, 
Plaintiff in Error, 
VSe irror to Circuit Court, 
MeHenry County. 
Chicago and Northwestern Railway 
Company, a carporation, 
Defendant in error. 
HUFFMAN =J 5 

This writ of error is prosecuted by plaintiff in error, as 
administrator of the estate of Stanley Buches, from the giving by 
the trial court of a peremptory instruction at the close of all 
the evidence, on behalf of the defendant in error, 

The case arose out of e railroad crossing aecident which 
occurred in the city of Harvard, in MeHenry county, Illinois, 
on October 24, 1929, at about six o'clock in the evening. 

The tracks of defendant in error, hereinafter called defendant, 
at the crossing in question consisted of two main tracks and seven 
switch tracks. The min tracks were in the center of the crossing 
with three switch tracks on one side and four upon the other. State 
Highway number nineteen and twenty-three intersect and join about 
one mile south of this erossing. The tracks at the crossing run 
in an east and west direction and the state highway rus north and 
south. On the evening in question plaintiff's intestate was driving 
his automobile north upon the above hishway. When he came to this 
erossing, the same was blocked by a switch engine and a train af 
freight cars. The deceased brought his car to a stop. Two motor 


vehicles were between his car and this crossing. The first of these 


was a truck. Immediately in front of the deceased's car was a

passenger car. Cars were also lined up on the north side of the 
crossing, waiting an opportunity to proceed south. Defendant's 
switch engine was stending with the freight cars upon the main 
track that is desigmted as the north main track, upon which east 
bound traffie was carried. Defendant's main track upon which west 
bound traffic is carried is on the south side of this track upon 
which the freight train was standing. This south main track must 
first be crossed by deceased tefore he could cross the track upon 
which the train of freight cars was standing, 


Defendant company had a watchman or crossing flagman at this 





crossing, who was in possession cf a red lantern and who was direct- 
ing traffie at that time. He had stopped the traffic on account of 
the switeh engine and train of freight cars that were then across 
tne crossing. About five minutes after the truck had stopped, the 
switching crew cut the train of freight cars for the purpose of 
opening the crossing to traffic. The locomotive pulled the cars 

to which it was attached, far enough to clear the crossing, where=- 
upon defendant's crossing flagman or watchman, walked out upon the 
crossing, looked to the east and west, and then with his red lantern 
Signaled the ears on both sides of the crossing to proceed. The 
three cars upon the south side of the crossing, which were headed 
by the truek, proceeded to cross over the tracks. The evidence 
shows that they proceeded together as one car, with about four 

feet between cach car, and that they moved in this manner upon and 
across the tracks of defendant company. Cars from the north side 
were crossing to the south. When the deceased reached the defendant's 
south main track upon which the west bound traffic was carried, his 
ear was struck by a fast passenger train and he was killed. The 
erossing watchman did not see the approach of this train when he 


Signalled the traffic to proceed across the crossing. He does claim

ear and that he blew a whistle and called to the deceased in an 
effort to warn him. The deceased was then upon the tracks 
following the cars in front of him. Defendant's crossing watch- 
mn was standing upon the west side of the highway, and a car 
passing directly in front of him from the north side of the 
erossing to the south, prevented his going to the east side of 


the highway where the deceased was traveling. 





The peremptory instruction was siven to the jury on behalf 
of the defendant upon the grounds that plaintiff's intestate was 
guilty of such contributory negligence as to bar a recovery. 
Defendant's servant, the crossing watehman @ flagman, in charge 
of this crossing was there for the purpose of warning traffic of 
approaching danger. ‘The train of freight cars was cut in @ der 
to open this crossing to the traffic that was then passing over 
the crossing. Upon the cutting of the train of freight cars, 
defendant's servant walked out into the crossing and looked to 
see if the tracks were clear, and thereupon gave the signal for 
traffic to cross. Plaintiff's intestate was in the act of cross- 
ing pursuant to the signal of defendant's watchman. In the absence 
of any independent knowledge of danger upon his part, he had the 
right to rely upon the directiions as given him by defendant's 
servant, who was stationed there for that particular purpose. 

C & A Ry. Co. v. Winters 175 Ill. 293, 303; C & A Ry. Cow Ve 

Gore 202 Til. 188. After a careful review of this case we are of 
the opinion that sufficient questions of fact were involved as to 
the negligence of deflendant's servant and that of plaintiff's 
intestate, as to require a submission thereof to a jury. 

The motion of the defendant in error herein, the defendant 
below, for a peremptory instruction should have been denied, and 
the evidence should have been submitted to the jury. 

The judgment is therefore reversed and the cause remanded. 


Reversed and remanded.

Gen. No. 8579 Agenda No. 12 


IN THE 
APPELLATE COURT OF ILLINOIS 
SECOND DISTRICT 


Februsry Term, AY’. 1933. 


Luella Hollenbeck and 
Hildegard Hollenbeck, 


Appellees, 
Appeal from County Court, 
Vs. Grundy County. 
Grundy County National 
Bank, 
Appellant. 
HUFFMAN-J. 


On January 25, 1952, appellant took judgment by confession 
in the County Court of Grundy County against William Hollenbeck, 
upon a note in the principal sum of $1250. William Hollenbeck 
and his wife lived on a farm near the city of Seneca. Appellees 
herein are their two daughters. 

Hildegard Hollenbeck works for the Western Electric Co., at 
Chieago, where she has been employed sine 1923. Luella Hollenbeck 
teaches school in Grundy County, and lives at home with her parents 
on the farm. She began teaching in September 1928. 

Pursuant to the aforesaid judsment by appellant against 
William Hollenbeck, execution issued end the sheriff levied upon 
certain livestock, consisting of horses, cows, brood sows, calves, 
pigs and sheep; and also upon corn, harness, wagons,and divers 
farming implements. Appellees served notice upon the sheriff that 
they claimed the ownership to certain of the live stock levied 
upon, and this case was a trial of the rights of property in such 
livestock, before the judge of the County Court of Grundy county. 

It appears from the evidence offered by appellees that they 
had advanced money to their mother to the extent of $850, and that 
on October 15, 1929, the mother in consideration of the money so 
advanced by appellees, signed and delivered to them the followir

"Seneca, Illinois 
October 15, 1929 


Sold to Hildegard and Tuas Hollenbeck 
8 head of cows and 2 brood sows for the sum 
of 5830.00 which I have reeeived during the 
last 4 years. 

Carrie Hollenbeck." 

It is not disputed that appellees advanced the money as 
claimed, The evidence further shows thet appellee, Luella 
Hollenbeck, advanced money to buy the grey mare named, "Betty." 
She claims to own this mare and a colt which is an offspring. 
After hearing the evidence, the court found in favor of appellees 
with reference to the above mare and colt, seven milk cows and 
six calves which were offsprings, six brood sows and forty-six 
pigs, by virtue of the foregoing instrument; and ardered a writ 
of retorno to issue as to such livestock, Appellant brings this 
appeal from the judgment of the court herein. 

Appellant urges that the bill of sale was invalid, that it 
should have been acknowledged and recorded, that the same was 
void as to appellant, that the burden was upon appellees to 
establish superior title to appellant, and that in this, they 
failed. Ona trial of the right of property under the statute, 
the burden is upon appellees to prove their right to the property, 
and they are bound to show that the property belongs to them and 
is not subject to sale upon execution . Appellees stated positively 
that this livestock belonged to them. It appears that the farm upon 
which they lived belonged to the mother. No one disputes the mother's 
ownership of the animals covered by her bill of sale, and no one 
disputes Luella's claim that she advanced the money with which to 
purchase the grey mare. 

It appears by appellant's evidence that the father, William 
Hollenbeck, made a property statement to appellant on January 31, 
1931, showing a net worth of $7395, and that the sum of #1653 in 


such statement was represented by livestock. Thereis nothing to

show that appellees had any notice or knowledge of this property 
statement made by William Hollenbeck to appellant. The bill of 
sale from the mother to appellees for the livestock in question 
was made on October 15, 1929. The note upon which judgment was 
taken against the father was dated October 26, 1931. The execution 
of the bill of sale by the mother to appellees was too remote to 
the execution of the note by the father, to attribute a wronsful 
intention on the part of the mother and appellees. 

Appellees both reeeived a substantiah monthly salary. It is 
not unusual that they should advance money to their mother as 
claimed in this case, nor is it uncommon for them to leave the 
livestock together with its offspring, upon the farm. 

The trial court saw the witnesses and ward them testify. 
Appellant offered no evidence to impugm the acts and conduct of 
the motther and appellees. Appellees swore the animals in questbon 
belonged to them, and no witness disputes their claim. Upon tl 
whole of the record we are not prepared to say that the judgment 
of the trial cow t is contrary to the law or against the weight 
of the evidence. 

The judgment of the County Court of Grundy County is there- 
fore affirmed. 


Judement affirmed.

IN THE 
APPELLATE COURT OF ILLINOIS 
SECOND DISTRICT 
February Term, A.D. 1934. 


Harris Brothers Company, 
a Delaware Corporation, 


Appellant, 
Appeal from Circuit Court, 
VSe Will County. 
Hinkamp & Company, et al., 
Appellees, 
HUFFMAN<=d.6 

Appellant on June 25, 1950, filed its bill in the Circuit 
Court of Will county, to foreclose a mechanics lien. The 
matter remained on the docket without a hearing until on May 8, 
1931, when appellees filed their motion to require appellant 
to obtain service on Hinkamp & Co., and on other necessary 
parties, within such time that the court might have the jurisdict- 
ion to proceed with the hearing of the cause during the September 
term, 1931, thereof, and that upon failure of appellant to so 
complete service as aforesaid, the bill be dismissed as without 
equity. The court entered its order directing appellant to 
obtain service as prayed in appellees’ motion. 

On October 13, 1931, the court found that appellant had 
failed to canplete service on Hinkamp & Co., as previously 
ordered on May 8Sth., and dismissed the bill of complaint as 
without equity. Appellant thereafter filed its petition to 
vacate the above order dismissing its bill. Upon motion of 
appellees made on February 2, 1933, the petition of appellant 
as above filed, was set for hearing on February 15, 1933. 

Upon a hearing of the matter on that date, the court took 
same under advisement and on Juve 7, 1933, entered its order 
denying the petition of appellant to vacate the order of court 


entered on October 15, 1931, dismissing the bill of complaint

as without equity. Appellant excepted to this ruling and 
prosecutes this appeal. 

Appellant insists that this appeal is directed toward 
the dismissing of the suit for failure to prosecute with 
diligence. Appellees insist that the only question for review 
is the order of the court refusing to vacate a previous order, 
and that this is the only alleged error covered by appellant's 
assignment of errors. Appellant assigns error that the denial 
of its motion to set aside the dismissal order of October 135th., 
was an abuse of the court's judicial discretion. 

The motion of appellees filed on May 8, 19351, to eanpel 
appellant to complete service was made under sec. 11 of the 
Lien Act, and the order entered thereon was entered pursuant 
to such section of said act. The pertinent portion of this 
section provides as follows: "The complainant or petitioner 
shall make all parties interested, of whose interest he is 
notified or has knowledge, parties defendant, and summons shall 
issue and service thereof be had as in suits in chancery; and 
when any defendant resides or has gone out of the state, or on 
inguiry can not be found, or is concealed within this state, 
so that process can not be served on him, the complainant or 
petitioner shall cause a notice to be given to him in like 
manner and upon the same conditions as is provided in suits 
in chancery, and his failure to so act with regard to summons 
or notice shall be ground for judgment or decree against him 
as upon the merits. The same rule shall prevail with cross- 
petitioners with regard to any person of whose interest they 
have knowledge, and who are not already parties to the suit or 
action." Sec. 21, ch. 110 Cahill's St. 1951, contains a 


somewhat similar provision in regard to suits in equity.

The substance of appellant's contentions is that the 
Court in its dismissal of this action was guilty of an ebuse 
of judicial discretion. Tc go into a discussion of the dispute 
of the parties herein upon this question would unduly extend 
this opinion and serve no good purpose. ‘We have examined the 
record and the evidence in this respect, and we do not fhna 
therefrom that the trial court committed an abuse of its 
discretion, as claimed by appellant. Courts must necessarily 
be clothed with some latitude in handling the business that 
comes before them; end in the dispatch of such business, 
matters within the discretionary powers of the court, will 
not be interferred with upm review, unless an abuse of such 
discretion appears to have been committed. The authorities 
on this point are abundant. 

Finding no reversible error in the record, the order and 
decree of the trial court is affirmed. 


Order and decree affirmed.

IN THE 
APPELLATE COURT OF ILLINOIS 
SECOND DISTRICT 


February Term, A.D. 1934, 


M. H.Fitzsimmons, 


Appellee, 
Appeal from Circuit Court, 
VS. MeHenry County. 





William Cowan, et al., 
(Fred Siebel, 
Appellant ) 


HUF FMAN+-J. 

This appeal is prosecuted by appellant from the order 
of the Circuit Court of McHenry county entered therein pur- 
suant to the mandate and specific directions of the appellate 
Court, wherein this cause was reversed and remmed with 
directions, in the case of li. H. Fitzsimmons, appellee, v. 
William Cowan, et al., defendant, Fred Siebel, appellant, 
265 Ill. App. 660. The question in that appeal was the dis- 
position of the sum of $1107.96 held by the Master, and for 
which appellant and the MeHenry County State Bank, (now 
Woodstock Natioal Bank) were contending. 

The only question involved in this appeal is whether 
the lower court entered its decree in conformity with the 
mandate and directions of the Appellate Court, as made at 
the time this case was reversed and remanded as aforesaid. 

In the opinion of the Appellate Court reversing and 
renanding this eause, it was provided that appellant should 
receive from the master the sum of $1000, and also the value 
of the dower right of Magzie Cowan in the balance of $107.96, 
and that the lower court determine the value of such dower 
right by reference to standard mortality tables. The dower 


right was fixed and determined at $35.98, and no camplaint

is made of the camputation of this item. Appellant objects 
herein because of the fact that the Circuit Court of McHenry 
county in entering its decree under the directions of the 
opinion of the Appellate Court, did not allow said appellant 
interest upon the above sum of money. 

We have examined the opinion of the Appellate Court in 
the above case wherein this cause was reversed and remanded 
with directions to the lower court, and the mandate as issued 
therein. There is no provision for the payment of any money 
to appellant under the decree to be entered by the said Circit 
Court, except the sum of $1000 and the said Maggie Cowan's 
dower right in the balance of 3107.96. 

Where a judgment is reversed «nd the cause is remanded, 
with specific directions as to the action to be taken by the 
trial court, it is the duty of that court to follow those 
directions, and it cannot err in doing so. Trustees of Schools 
ve Hoyt, 318 Ill. 60. Upon appeal fra the decree of a lower 
court so entered, the only question presented on such appeal, 
is whether the decree is in accordance with the mandate and 
directios of the court of review. Trustees of Schools v. 
Hoyt, supra; Smith v. Dugser 318 T1l. 215; Wolkau v. Wolkau 
217 Ill. App. 471, 474; Dunlap v. Pierce, 260 Ill. App. 149, 
154; Ry. Equipment Co. v. Brell€-Beam Co., 259 I11, 111, 115. 

From an examination of the opinion of the Appellate Court 
entered in the above case, we find that the lower court was 
directed to enter its decree providing for the payment of $1000 
to said appellant, together with the dower interest as aforesaid 
in the sum of $107.96, which amounts were the final balances 
found to be due to said appellant. The Circuit Court had no 
power to enter any other decree. 

The judgment of the Circuit Court, mrely carrying into 
execution the judgnent of the Appellate Court, was the only 
judgment which the Circuit Court had any authority to enter, 


and the same is affirmed. 
is Judgnent affirmed.

IN THE 
COURT OF ILLINOIS 
WD DISTRICT 


February Term, A.D. 1954. 


Ae L,. Fogle, Receiver, 
Defendant in =Zrror, 
Error to Circuit Court, 
vs. Ogle County. 
Charles E. Hayes, 


Plaintiff in Error. 





HUFFMAN-J. 

Defendant in error was appointed receiver in a foreclosure 
proceeding for a certain eighty acre tract of land. He qualified 
as such receiver. This land at the time was rented to a tenant 
by the name of King, who had the premises rented for the perid 
from March 1, 19351, to March 1, 1932, at the sum of $5.00 per 
acre, cash rental. King sold his crops upon this tract of land 
to plaintiff in error in June 1931. King had not paid the rent. 
The evidence shows the rent was to be paid in tw equal install- 
ments. 

Defendant in error called upon plaintiff in error about the 
payment of this rent upon several occasions, at which times te 
discussed with plaintiff in error the payment of the same. He 
states that plaintiff in error said that he was to pay the rent 
but it wasn't due yet; that it was cash rent of $5.00 an acre 
making a total of $400. Defendant in error claims that plaintiff 
in error agreed upon various times he would pay the rent, that 
half would be due December 1, 1931, and half due March 1, 1952. 
It appears fram the evidence thst plaintiff in error later refused 
to pay defendant in error the rent, claiming that he had no in- 
formation or proof that defendant in error was the receiver and 


entitled to collect same. The evidence shows that defendant in

error then submitted his credentials to plaintiff in error 

at which time plaintiff in error deferred psyment stating 

that he did not know whether defendant in error was the proper 
party to whom he should pay the rent. The evidence shows re- 
peated trips by defendant in error to see plaintiff in error, 

and conversations be tween them regarding the payment of this rent. 

Plaintiff in error received the crops but did not pay the 
rent, and his testimony upon the trial of this cause is highly 
unsatisfactory as to any reason for not paying it. He claims 
that defendant in error upon his visits, "never threatened to 
go into court," with the account. The rent was not paid and 
the plaintiff in error offered no legal reason why he should not 
pay it. 

This suit was originally instituted in a Justice of the 
Peace court where defendant in error herein, recovered a judgment 
for the sum of $400 as rent upon these premises. Plaintiff in 
error herein, appealed from that judement to the Cireuit Court 
of Ogle County, where a jury was waived and the cause was tried 
before the Court. The Court rendered judgnent in favor of 
defendant in error and against plaintiff in error for $400 
and costs. From an examination of this record we are of tle 
opinion that the judgnent of the trial court was correct, and 
the same is hereby affirmed. 


Judgment affirmed.

IN THE 
AVPELLATE COURT OF ILLINOIS 
SECOND DISTRICT 


February Term, A.D, 1954. 


Leslie C. Morgan, Supervisor for 
and on behalf of Township of Bonus, 
Boone County, Illinois, 





Appellee, 
Appeal from the Circuit 
VS. Court, Boone County. 
The Estate of A. Gates White, 
Deceased, 
Appellant. 
| HUFFMAN-J. 


A, Gates white, deceased, had been a former supervisor of 
the township of Bonus, in Boone County, Illinois,and as such 
officer had custody and charge of the township funds and of the 
road and bridge funds of said town. He died, having in his 
possession a balance of $3698.95, belonging to said township. 
Appellee herein succeeded said deceased as supervisor of said 
township, and appellee as such supervisor for and on behalf of 
said township filed a claim against the estate of said deceased 
for $2838.25, being the above amount less a credit of $860.70 receiv- 
ed from said estate. 

There is no dispute that the deceased had the money in his 
hands at the time of his death. The only question involved in 
this case is whether the claim as filed by appellee, in his 
capacity as supervisor for and on behalf of said township of 
Bonus, was sufficient to entitle the court to allow same against 
said estate. The claim was filed by appellee in the County Court 
of said county, in words and figures as follows:

Leslie C. Morgan, supervisor for and on behalf 
of the Township of Bonus, Boone County, Illinois, 
being duly sworn on oath says that the annexed claim 
against the estate of A. Gates White, deceased, amount- 
ing to the sum of $2,838.25 is just after allowing all 
just claims, and is now due and unpaid 
Leslie ©. Morgan 


Subseribed and sworn to before me 

this 21st day of September, A.D. 1931 

(Seal ) 
Alexander J, Strom 
Notary Publie 
Boone Co. Ill. 


The above claim referred to in said affidavit is’ 
founded as follows: To amount of trust funds entrusted 
to said decedent, who was for a number of years super- 
visor for said township, county, and State, and at the 
time of his death had said funds in his possession be- 
longing to said township as follows: 
Township RUPE b 6.5; wierels a wreeliw eevee $2,457 «27 
Road and bridge fund......... 1,261.68 
Total e@eoeeseevpeoeevvseaeveaeeeee $5,698.95 
Less credit received from the estate of 4. Gates 
White which has been credited on the township fund, 
said payment was in the sum of $860.70, leaving the 
account as follows: 
Due trust fund on account of the 
road and bridge fund ...seeeese- $1,261.68 
Balance due on trust fund on 
account of township fund ....... 1,576.57 
Total @eseeoervoeeopeoa@e*eeenstkeee8e2sd 2,858.25" 
Objections were made to the claim in the County Court by 
the Second National Bank of Belvidere, which claimed to have 
judgments amounting to $4418.35; and by the Peoples Bank of 
Belvidere, which claimed to have a judgment for $2782; and by the 
Keene Belvidere Canning Co., which claimed to have a judgment 
of $9830.72; and by the Farmers State Bank o Belvidere, which 
had filed a claim against said estate to the sum of $15,000; 
and by the administrator of the estate of the said A. Gates White, 
deceased. The position of the objectors was that there was nothing 
in said claim to show who presented it or upon whose behalf it was 
presented; and further challenging the right of appellee to file 
the claim for and on behalf of the township, and urging that the 


same was improperly filed and should have been filed in the name of

the Township of Bonus. The County Court allowed the claim as 

of the fourth class. The objectors took an appeal to the Circuit 
Court of said county. The Circuit Court allowed the claim as of 
the fourth class, to be paid in due coursé of administration. 

The above objectors have now brought this appeal from the judgment 
of the Circuit Court of Boone County. 

An examination of the claim and affidavit as made thereto 
by appellee in this case, leaves no question as to the purpose 
of the filing of the claim, or upon whose behalf the claim is 
filed. It sets out the amounts the deceased supervisor had, both 
in the road and bridge fund and in the township fund, at the time 
of his death. It further appears from the claim that these were, 
"trust funds entrusted to said decedent, who was for a number of 
years supervisor for said township, county, and state, and at the 
time of his death had said funds in his possession belonging to 
said township ***," 

Appellee is the proper custodian of the money due under the 
claim filed herein. A question similar to the one now urged by 
appellant, that all suits or proceedinzs of this kind and character 
must be brought in the name of the town, was under cors id erati on 
in the case of Highway Comrs. v. Bloomington, 255 Til. 164. The 
court with reference to this question on mge 167 of its opinion 
uses the following language: "The appellant contends that this 
suit was improperly brought in the name of the cammissioners of 
hivhways; that the suit should have been brought either in the 
name of the town, under paragraph 46 of chapter 139 of Hurd's 
Statutes of 1909, or in the name of the township treasurer, for the 
reason that the money, being public funds belonging to the township, 
would be payable to such treasurer. There is no force in this 
objection. The township is the beneficial plaintiff and real 
claimant of the money sued for. A recovery of a judgment and a 
satisfaction thereof in the present action would be a bar to any 
further action, either in the name of the town or any other agent 


thereof, for this cause of action."

Furthermore we do not understand that the presentation of 
a claim against an estate need conform to common law practice 
or be presented in the technical legal form which applies to 
suits at law. Thomson v. Black, 200 Ill, 465, 468. 

Some criticism might be offered as to the form and manner 
in which the claim filed herein, was drawn; but as above stated 
we do not understand that the same strictness is required ina 
proceeding of this kind with reference to the technital manner 
and form of the written claim, as is required in suits af law. 
There can be no doubt as to the purpose of the claim and upon 
whose behalf it is filed. We are of the opinion that a payment 
and satisfaction of this claim, would be a bar to any further 
action, either in the name of the town or any other agent thereff. 


The judgment of the Circuit Court of Boone County is affirmed. 


Judgment affirmed.

VS. 
Mary C. DeVault, et al., 


Appellees. 


HUFIMAN-J, 

This is an action Wein by appellees to foreclose a trust 
deed and five notes secured thereby, executed by appellants The 
trust deed and notes bore date of August 12, 1928, and were due 
three years after date. 

The defense urged by appellants upon the hearing of this 
cause, was that each o the five notes after its execution by 
appellants, had been materially altered and changed by appellees, 
@ some one on their behalf and at their direction, without 
appellants’ knowledge or consent; by causing to be stamped 
upon the face @ each of said notes the following words: "The 
makers hereof reserve the privilege of paying this note on any 
interest day, upon giving to the trustee sixty days previous 
notice in writing and payiag a premium of 2% of the amount of 
the principal thereof." The abare statement was stamped upon 
each note by way of a rubber stamp, and was placed on each note 
immediately above the first line provided for the signature of 
the said makers. Mary C. DeVault was the first signer upon 
each note and her signature extends into and through the wording 


place thereon by the rubber stamp. It is insisted by appellants

that this red stamp placed upon each note as aforesaid is super- 
imposed upon the signature of the said Mary C. DeVault, thereby 
demonstrating the fact that the said stamp had been placed upon 
the several notes after their execution. ‘The color of the rubber 
stamp upon the notes is referred to by appellants as red. It is 
in fact of a purple color, but for convenience herein we shall 
hereafter refer to the same as red. Appellants urged that by 
virtue of Sees. 145 and 146 ch. 98 Cahill's St. 1931, the alleged 
alteration rendered the notes and trust deed void, and therefore 
they are not liable thereunder. 

The cause was heard by the Chancellor and he decreed fore- 
closure as prayed. Appellants prosecute this appeal uping 
for reversal the above alleged alteration of the notes by the 
placing of the red stamp thereon. 

Complainants’ exhibit nine was an application for loan of 
five thousand dollars for three years and contained the follow- 
ing clause: "Prepayments: any note callable at 102 on any inter- 
est date on sixty days prior notice." Complainants’ exhibit ten 
was the application for extension of this loan, signed by appel- 
lants and contained the following clause: "Prepayments: any note 
callable at 102 on any interest date on sixty days prior notice.” 
An extension agreement was entered into pursuant to the above 
application therefor. 

The trust deed herein was mailed to Helmer, Molten, Whitman, 
and Holten, attorneys, in Chicago, for execution. It was recorded 
before it was returned to the office of appellees, The notes were 
mailed directly to Mrs. Mary C. DeVault, in Chicago, and she re- 
turned them to the office of appellees, in person. From the time 
the trust deed and notes were prepared and mailed as above, for 
execution, they were never back in the office of appellees, or in 
the hands of any one representing appellees, until after they had 
been executed, and the trust deed recorded. 


The trust deed recites: “The grantors herein reserve the

privilege of paying any of the notes above described, on any 
interest day, upon giving to the trustee, sixty days previous 
notice in writing, and paying a premium of 2% of the amount of 
the principal thereof." It is admitted by the appellants that 
the alleged alteration of the trust deed by the incorporation 
therein of the above quoted words, was not made after the re- 
cording of said trust deed. 

William C. Hubbell testified he prepared the notes and that 
the ted stamp upon the fact of each note was placed thereon when 
the notes were prepared and before they were mailed for execution, 
Elsie Huss, an employee of the attorney of appellee bank, testi- 
fied she prepared the trust deed and that it was in the same 
condition at the time of the hearing as it was at the time she 
prepared it, except for the signatures and the filing mark. 
Florence Klepper, an employee of appellee, states she paw the 
trust deed and notes before they were executed, that she checked 
them before they left the bank, and after they were executed and 
returned. She states that the red stamp was upon the notes before 
they left the bank, and that she mailed them directly to Mrs. De 
Vault in Chicago, for execution, and that they are in the same 
condition now as they were at the time she mailed them, except 
for the sienatures. She states that the above clause was in the 
trust deed. 

The above wording as it appears in the trust deed, undoubtedly 
was written with the same typewriter that was used to prepare 
the instrument. livery indication points to this fact. Hach 
member of this court examined the red stamp as placed upon the 
several notes, with reference to the signature of Mary C. DeVault, 
which extends into and through the wording of said stamp, in many 
places. This examination was made with an excellent magnifying 
glass, free from distortion, and from such examination this court 
was of the unanimous opinion that the signature of Mary C. DeVault 
is superimposed upon the red stamp, and not the red stamp super- 


imposed upon her signature. The trial court also used a glass in

Galesburg Horse and Mule Co., 
a corporation of Galesburg, 
Illinois, et al, 
Appellants. 
HUF FMAN=J « 

This was a suit by appellee against appellant based upon 
the common counts, including the count for money had and received. 
Trial by jury was had in the Circuit Court of Knox County. The 
jury returned a verdict in favor of appellee for the amount claimed, 
and judgment was entered thereon. Appellant prosecutes this appeal 
from the judgment of that court, 

Appellee lives in Ontario, New York. Appellant corporation

purchase and sale of horses. The said Mills lives in Coldwater,

that appellee furnished the money with which to buy game. Appellee 
and Mills were both acquainted with the managing officers of 
appellant corporation, Mills had done business upon his own 
accord with the appellant for seven years. He had also done 
business for appellant on behalf of Mr. Roach who is the president

of Fairfield. The banks in that town were closed and appellee 
eould not get his draft cashed. A sight draft was drawn by these 
parties upon appellant company for the sum of $280 to pay for these 
horses, The horses were then transported to appellant's barns by- 
one of its trucks, together with five other horses that had been 


purchased by one ‘filton Preston. 





J, Le Roach was president, F. L, Meeker vice-president and 
R.B. Sharp secretary anc treasurer, of appellant company. These 
men were in the active management of the business. The next day 
after the horses had been purchased in Iowa, the parties returmd 
to Galesburg where they talked with Mr. Sharp and Mr. Meeker regard- 
ing the transaction of the previous day. Appellee at this time 
owed a balance on account to apovellant of $379, upon which Mr. Sharp 
had entered a credit of 865, reducing the balance to $314. Mills 
had sold a team of horses for appellee for $225 and save appellant 
a check for this amount to apply upon appellee's account. This 
reduced appellee's balance to $89. 

Appellee wanted to return home, and claims that he left Mills 
at Galesburg in possessim of the $1000 draft for the purpose of 
buying more horses to ship east. Appellee claims he had an under-= 
standing with Mr. Sharp and Mr. Meeker, of appellant ompany, that 
he would leave the $1000 draft with Mills for the purpose of pur- 
chasing more horses, and to pay the balance of $89 which he owed 
appellant. He claims that Sharp gave him his pen to indorse the 
draft to leave with Mills for the purchase of the horses and the 
payment of the balance of his account. Milto Preston lives in 
Wheaton, New York, and he had the five horses at appellant's barn, 
which he had purchased. He was going home because of his father's 
death, and appellee was returning with him. Appellee left the 
draft with Mills, and Mills left the draft with the officers of 
appellant company. Appellant company deposited the draft to its 


eredit and credited the personal account of Mills therefor.

Whereupon appellee instituted this suit as aforesaid for the 
recovery of the proceeds from the said draft less the balance 
of S89 owed by him to appellant. 

The evidence of Milis, the appellee, and Preston is to the 
effect that appellant's officers knew and understood the draft 
was the property of appellee and that he left it with Mills for 
the purpose of buying horses for him, to be shipped out with those 
already purchased by himself and Preston, and which were then at 
appellant's barns. The officers of appellant company admit con- 
versations were had at these times claimed by appellee, but deny 
knowledge that appellee left the draft for the purpose claimed. 

This was a question of fact to be determined by the jury. Where 
the evidence is conflicting, and that of appellee when considered 
alone fairly authorizes the verdict, the same will not be disturbed. 
It is the province of the jury to weigh and consider the evidence, 
determine the credibility of the witnesses and the weight to te 
given their testimony; and unless the verdict is contrary to the 
weight of the evidence a court of review will not substitute its 
judgement for that of the jury and reverse a case merely because the 
evidence is emflicting. Appellant's objection that the verdict is 
against the weight of the evidence is not well taken. 

Appellant claims of appellee's given instructions five, six and 
seven. We have examined these instructions and we do not emsider 
the cbjection as made thereto constitutes reversible error, The 
question in this case is whether the appellant had knowledge of 
appellee's title and ownership to the draft and the purpose for which 
it had been left by him with Mills, as claimed, at the time they re-— 
ceived the same from Mills. From an examination of the record we are 
of the opinion that the jury was fairly and properly instructed as 
to the law, and that their verdict is not the result of passion @& 
prejudice and can not be said to te contrary to the manifest weight 
of the evidence. 

The judgnent of the Circuit Court of Knox County is affirmed. 

Judgment Affirmed .

Gen. No. 8776 Agenda No. 36 
In the Appellate Gourt of Illinois 
Second District 
February Term, A. D. 19354 
H. F. Gehant Banking Company, 
Appellee, 
Appeal from the Circuit Court 
vig of Lee County 
M. Bradshaw and Mae Bradshaw, 


Appellants, 


HUFFMAN-J, 

Judgment by confession was taken by appellee against appellants 
on October 10, 1932, in open court, in the circuit court of Lee 
County, for the sum of $9241.80. Execution issued, and on October 
12, 1932, service of execution was had upon each of appellanis. 
Approximately one year later, and to-wit: On October 16, 1933, 
appellants filed their motion to set aside the above judgment, allegt 


ing lack of jurisdiction upon the part of the court to enter same. 





This is the a@nly question in this appeal. 
The warrant of attorney contained in said note is as follows: 


"The undersigned hereby, jointly and severally, 

empower any attorney of any court of record to appear 

\ for them, or either or any of them, in such court in 
term time or vacation, at any time hereafter and 

confess a judgment without process ageinst them, or 

either or any of them, in favor of the legal holder 

thereof for such sum as may appear to be unpaid thereon 
with interest, costs and ten per cent attorney's fees, 
with minimum attorney fee of $25.00 and to waive and 

: release all errors which may interven@® in such proceeding 
and consent to immediate execution." 

; 


The cognovit contained the following language, to which 
appellants object: 


8 "The defendants further agree that no writ of error 

or appeal shall be prosecuted on the judgment entered by 

virtue hereof, nor any bill in equity filed to interfere 

in any manner with the operation of judgment." 

Appellants insist that the warrant of attorney included in 
the note, not containing the phrase just above set out, which was 


incérporated in the cognovit, the court was therefore without

jurisdiction to enter the judgment. They presented their motion to 
set aside the judgment herein as aforesaid, which motion was based 
solely upon an alleged lack of jurisdiction upon the part of the 
court to enter samé. T,e question of any defense to the note is in 
no way involved in this proceeding, 

We understand the rule to be that the filing of a declaration, 
note and warrant of attorney, affidavit of its execution, and cognovit, 
brings the defendant before the court, and is enough to confer juris- 
diction upon the court to enter judgwent. Bush v. Hanson, 70 J11l. 480. 
The court in that case on page 483 of its opinion states; "It appears, 
from the judgment order, that a declaration, the warrant of attorney, 
and affidavit of its execution, the note and cognovit by the attorney 
authorized, were filed. The defendant in the judgment was before 
the court by appearance by his duly authorized attorney. A case 
of jurisdiction was then presented." I+ thus appears that where a 
note containing a warrant of attorney is filed with affidavit of 
its execution, together with a declaration and a cognovit, the court 
acquires jurisdiction to enter up a judgment. In further reference 
to this matter it will be found that the Supreme Court in the case of 
Fields v. Brown, 188 I11. 111, on page 113 of its opinion uses the 
following language: "fhe power to confess a judgment being clearly 
given in the writing signed and sealed by the appellant, the circuit 
court was fully justified in accepting it as sufficient to authorize 
the entry of appearance and confession of a judgment. Type filing 
of the declaration, lease and warrant of attorney, and affidavit 
of its execution, and cognévit, presented a case of jurksdiction. " 

While it is the settled doctrine that the authority to confess 
a judgment without process must be clear and explicit and strictly 
pursued, yet this rule has its reasonable limitations, and must not 
be applied with such strictness as to defeat the obvious intentions 
of the party granting the power .Holmes v. Parker, 125 Ill. 478,481; 
Sharp v. Barr, 234 Ill. App. 214, 217.

There is no pretense made here that the judgment was not confessdd 
for the exact amount honestly due to appellee from appellants. The 
Warrant of attorney clearly contained the power to confess judgment 
against appellants at any time, in favor of the legal holxder of the 
note, for such sum as was due thereon, and with a provision to waive 
and release all errors which may have intervened in such proceeding 
and the consent to immediate execution. 

With respect to appellants! contention that the court was without 


jurisdiction to enter this judgment, because of the incorporation of 





the above phrase in the cognovit, which was not expressly set out in 
the warrant of attorney, we are of the opinion that the following 

' Cases are decisive of this question. Hansen et al v. S,hlesinger, 

et al, 125 Ill. 230; Long v. Coffman, 230 Ill. App. 527. In the 
Hansen case, the court on page 237 of its opinion states; "In respéct 
to the other branch of the motion, unless some equitable ground was 


shown, the judgment could not be set aside and the execution quashed, 


(Citing cases). None has been shown in this case. There is no pre- 
tense the judgment was not confessed for the exact amount honestly 
due to plaintiff from defendants. If the attorney waived more than 
he was authorized to do by the warrant of attorney, in respect to 
defendants' right to an appeal or writ of error it is obvious it did 
them no harm, for they have now had their day in court, notwithstanding 
the aétion of their attorney of which complaint is made." Jn the 
Long case, supra, the court on page 531 of its opinion &teates; "The 
cognovit expressly released all errors in entering the judgment. 

The warrant of attorney did not, in terms, authorize the attorney 

to release errors, and it is contended that the powers conferred 

by the instrument must be strictly pursued and that any material 
deviation therefrom has the effect of rendering the judgment void. 
Counsel has stated the rule of law correctly but its application 


cannot be made to this case, because every confession of a judgment

ethics, 


operates as a release of errors. (23 Cyc. 721). Therefore the 
statement in the cognovit that all errors are releaged amounts to 
nothing mare than a mere recital of what the law is and the result 
is the same whether the cognovit contains such a statement or not. 
Because a judgment by confession operates as a release of errors, 
the law is made to provide that courts of law shall have equitable 
powers in determining motions to vacate or open up such judgments 
and that appeals and writs of error may be prosecuted to review the 
judgment of the court in granting or denying such motions. In 
addition to this the plaintiff in error has not been prejudiced 

by such alleged release of errors and there is no legal or equitable 
reason assigned why the judgment should be vacated on account of 
such release." OCertiorari in this case was denied by the Supreme 
Court. 

The appellants do not question the correctness of this judgment, 
er advance any legal or equitable objections to same, They urge 
there was such a material deviation between the warrant of attorney 
and the cognovit, as to destroy the court's jurisdiction to enter 
judgment, and that therefore the same is void. We do not adopt this 
view of the case. 

The judgment of the circuit court herein is atfirmed, 


Judgement affirmed.

IN THE 
APPELLATE COURT OF ILLINOIS 
SRCOND DISTRICT 


Oetober Term, AD. 19526 


ANTONIA BURCAR, 
Appellee, 
.ppeal from the Circuit 
VSe 
Cowt of LaSalle County. 
ALBERT L. ROBERTS, 


Appellant. 


PER CURIAM: = 
Antcnia Burear, hereinafter referred to as appellee, 
instituted this proceeding against Albert L. Roberts, hereafter 
ealled appellant, in an action based on fraud and deceit, averred 
to have been practiced by the appellant upon appellee in the sale 
of a stock of merchandise and fixtures in a grocery store in Streator, 
The declaration consists of two original and three amended counts, 
in all of which it is charged that the appellant deweived and defraud- 
ed appellee by misrepresenting to her the quantity and quality of the 
stock of groceries sold. To the declaration the general issue was 
pleaded. 
It appears that in February 1926 the appellant owned a stock 
of groceries in the City of Streator; that he purchased the stock 
in October 1925, and that his sister irs. O'Neil and his wife 
managed the store from October until the following February. 
Appellee lived in Kangley, near Streator, with her sons and daughters; 
one of her daughters who attended the streator High School near 
the store learned the stock was for sale and on Sunday, February 
14th, 1926, Ralph Burear, twenty-two years of age, and his brother 
Peter, twenty-six years of age, sons of appellee, called at the 


home of appellant and went with him to the store and examined the

stock, According to the theory of appellant the stock was fresh 
and clean and apparently appellee was pleased with the report 
made to her by her sons for on the following morning she went 
to the store and remained examining the stock and observing the 
trade. 

The record further discloses that appellee testified that 
she resolved on Monday morning to buy the stock. Appellant in- 
quired whether she wanted to buy for a lump sum or on an inventory 
basis. It appears that an inventory had lately been taken. Appellee 
said she would not buy for a lump sum nor accept an inventory unless 
it was made in her presence. She returned on Tuesday with her son 
Ralph and again examined the stock and watched the trade, 

It further appears that she and her said son Ralph returned 
on Wednesday morning following and arranged with Mrs. O'Neil to 
have an inventory of the stock taken by a disinterested outsider, 
and by agreement George Page, a salesman for a wholesale grocery 
house, was called and an inventory was made by him and under his 
direction. Appellee and her son Ralph were present throughout the 
entire taking of the inventory and Ralph assisted Page in taking 
it. The inventory was largely in the handwriting of Ralph Burcar 


and was in the possession of appellee from the time the inventory 





was taken until the trial. The inventory of the value of the stock 
was in the neighborhood of $900 and the shelves and fixtures around 
$300. Appellee paid appellant the total inventory value of the 


stock and fixtures on Thursday, Februsry 18th, and immediately 


. 
; 


went into possession of the stock and the store.

The evidenee discloses on the part of appellee as well as 


————— 


appellant, except for a few minor exceptions, as to which there 
is a conflict in the testimony, that appellee received all the 
items of goods and property listed in the inventory. 


It is the contention of appellee that the groceries were not

that the store was clean and neat; that the stock was clean and

that the cans were clean and not rusty; and that the whole place 
looked attractive. There is evidence in the record, however, to 

the effect by appellee and her son Ralph that some time after the 

Sale was made some of the goods were found to be spoiled. The 
evidence of the son Raloh is that the total value of all goods 

claimed to have been spoiled, including goods claimed to have been 
found spoiled something like eicht months after the sale was $315.90. 
The judgment was for %848.00. 

It is the contention of anvpellant that the judgment of the 
Circuit Court should be reversed and the cause remanded because the 
evidence shows that appellee received the goods described in the 
inventory and that the stock at that time was clean and fresh and 
the cans free of dust; that the evidence does not prove fraud on 
the part of appellant as alleged in the declaration; that the Court 
admitted improper evidence which tended to confuse the jury; that 
the Court erred in its instructions to the jury and that the dameges, 
even if plaintiff was entitled to recover, are excessive. 

On an examination of the declaration it will be found that 
appellee avers that appellant deceived and defrauded her in the tw 
following particulars; first, as to the cuantity of stock of groceries 
in the store; that it was less than shown by the inventory; Second, 
as to the quality of the stock of groceries in the store; that an 
indefinite part of it was spoiled and unmerchantable. 

The evidence discloses that the entire stock of groceries was 
inventoried by a under the supervision of an experienced and dis- 
interested wholesale grocery salesman; that the inventory was made 
in the presence of appellee and her son Ralph, a young business man; 
that the greater part of the inventory was in the handwriting of the 
son of appellee, who assisted through out in the taking of it, and 
it appears from the evidence of Ralph himself that there was no 
material shortage but the items on the inventory were substantial ly 


correct in so far as he could remember. Cf

The evidence offered by appellee on the question of the 
quality of the goods and bearing upon the charge of fraud and 
deceit is meagre. The evidence on the part of appellee on this 
part of the case was given by herself and her two sons, Ralph 
and Peter. They failed to testify that the stock of goods was 
spoiled in whole or in part at the time of the sale. Appellee 
testified that she went to the store every other day after she 
bought it and that she found nothing wrong with any of the stock 
until fow or five days after the purchase. The son Ralph 
testified that he knew of some items of the goods which he 
claimed were spoiled two days after the sale and about all of 
them not later than five days after the sale. The record fails 


to disclose, however, that if he did observe anything with re- 





ference to there being any spoiled goods he did not disclose that 
fact to his mother, the appellee. 

It is also urged by appellant that the Court admitted in 
evidence over his objection, a certain Exhibit. Apparently the 
Exhibit was an inventory of the stock made some time prior to the 
sale. It does not appear when the inventory was made, or by whom. 
It is quite apparent that it had no bearing on the ease. The 
record discloses that appellee testified that she refused to 
accept any other inventory than her own or to deal on the basis 
of any other. An inventory made at sme time prior would not show 
the same goods that would be shown in an inventory made at the tim 
of the purchase by appellee and to introduce ea former inventory, 
especially without proof as to who made it or when it was made, 
necessarily tended to mislead the jury and gave it to understand 
that it should consider any discrepancies which might appear in 
the two inventories in making up its verdict. We think the cowt 
erred in admitting the Exhibit. 

It is contended also by the appellant that the Court erred 
in giving instruetion number Three. In instruction number Three, 


instead of informing the jury that the masure of damages was

the difference between the value of the goods as they were and 
as they were represented, the instruction informed them that they 
"May allow to the plaintiff such fair and reasonable sum as will 
fairly and reasonably reimburse the plaintiff for any actual 
lesses *** she may have unavoiidably sustained as a direct result 
of the alleged false and fraudulent statements and representations 
made by the defendant to the plaintiff." 

The record discloses that Ralph Burear, son of appellee, was 
the only witness who testified on the subject that the total value 
of all the gcods which were of inferior quality or spoiled was 
5315,90. That figure would represent the difference between the 
value of the goods as they were and as they were represented to 
be if appellant had been guilty of fraud and deceit as averred. 
The verdict was for $775.00, but it appears thst quite a considerable 
length of time elapsed before judgment was rendered on the verdict 
end judement was subsequently rendered for the sum of %848.00. If 
appellee was entitled to recover the measure of her damsges would 
be the difference between the value of the stock as it was and 


what it would be worth if the alleged false representations con- 





cerning it had been trve. The measure of damages in an action for 
fraud and deceit is the difference in the worth of the property as 
represented and its real value. Or as it is sometimes stated, it 
is the difference between the value of the property as it is and 
what it would be worth if the representations had been true. 
Schwitters vs. Springer, 236 Iil. 271; Siltz vs. Springer, 256 
Ill. 2763; Stewart vs. Clark, 194 Ill. App. 2. 

We are of the opinion that reversible error was committed 
in the trial of this cause and the ivigment of the Circuit Court 
of LaSalle County is reversed and the cause remanded. 


REVERSED AND REMANDED.

Appeal from the Circuit Court of Brown County, 
Illinois. 


January Term, A. D, 1934. 
Gen. No. 8791 Agenda No. 3 


Mr. Justice Davis delivered the opinion of the 
court. 

This is an appeal from a decree of the Cireuit Court 
of Brown County, rendered on the hearing of a bill 
filed by appellee to construe the last will and testament 
of her mother, Mary A. Barton, deceased. 

Mary A. Barton died testate in the city of Mt. 
Sterling, Illinois, on December 15, 1930, and the pro- 
visions of her last will and testament which was ad- 
mitted to probate and record in the county court of 
Brown County, Illinois, are as follows:

In her bill of complaint appellee alleges that on or 
about May 5, 1923, she was indebted to said Mary A. 
Barton, deceased, in the sum of $5680.00, which was 
evidenced by a promissory note for said sum with in- 
terest at the rate of 6% per annum from date until 
paid and was then due and payable, that William S. 
Black, the husband of appellee, and Hattie H. Black, 
his sister, were sureties on said note; that on Novem- 
ber 1, 1927, all indebtedness of appellee including said 
promissory note as aforesaid was extinguished and 
liquidated in the following manner: 

William 8. Black and Hattie H. Black were at that 
time the owners of the east half of the southwest quar- 
ter of section six and the northwest quarter of the 
southeast quarter of said section six in township one 
south, range four west of the fourth principal meridi- 
an, in Brown County, State of Illinois, said lands be- 
ing occupied at the time by appellee and her husband, 
William S. Black, and said Hattie H. Black; that the 
fair cash market value of said real estate at that time 
was twenty thousand dollars, subject to a mortgage 
securing the sum of seventy-five hundred dollars; that 
appellee and her husband were at that time indebted 
to the Timewell State Bank, the Timewell Farmers 
Cooperative Company and M. E. McCabe in the total 
sum of $2832.40; that the said Mary A. Barton on said 
November 1, 1927, agreed, in consideration of the con- 
veyance to her of the above described real estate, that 
she would assume the payment of said mortgage, pay 
the said indebtedness amounting to the sum of 
$2832.40 and also release and discharge appellee and 
said William S. Black and Hattie H. Black from all 
liability from the indebtedness due and owing from 
appellee and her husband, William 8. Black, and 
Hattie H. Black to her, including said note above de- 
scribed and would cancel and deliver said note to ap- 
pellee; that, relying upon said promise of said Mary 
A. Barton, appellee and her husband, William S. 
Black, and said Hattie H. Black, on November 1, 1927, 
executed and acknowledged and delivered a deed to 
said real estate to said Mary A. Barton, who from that 
time on has been the owner thereof and that the same 
has been inventoried as part of her estate. 

That the relations between appellee and her mother 
at that time and continuously until her death were 
tender, affectionate and amicable, and that appellee 
relying upon the promise of her mother and believing 
that she would surrender and cancel said note within 
a reasonable time did not insist upon the immediate 
surrender and cancellation of the same, but thereafter, 
while visiting her mother, requested her to deliver and 
cancel said note, and her mother who claimed she kept

said note in a purse, which at that time was in the 
possession of said William T. Barton requested the 
said Barton to deliver said note to appellee; that he 
never delivered said note to appellee but that after her 
mother’s death the note was found in the possession 
of said Barton and that from thence hitherto it has 
been and still is in his possession; that said Barton 
paid nothing for said note and that he is not a bona 
fide holder of said note in due course, nor was the same 
assigned or transferred to him by said decedent in her 
life time; that appellee was not indebted to her mother 
at the time of the execution of her will nor at the time 
of her death; that the other children of deceased now 
claim that the notes mentioned in the sixth clause of 
said will of deceased includes the said note which had 
been liquidated as aforesaid and is to be considered 
evidence of an advancement against the interest pro- 
vided for appellee by the said last will and testament 
and that under the second paragraph of said sixth 
clause she will forfeit all her interest in said estate 
unless she pays said note and interest thereon down 
to the present time to be deducted from appellee’s 
share in said estate; and that the other children now 
contend that the refusal of appellee to either pay said 
note, or permit the supposed indebtedness evidenced 
by it to be deducted from her interest in said estate 
subjects her said interest to forfeiture under the sixth 
paragraph of said will which provides that ‘‘should 
either of my said children attempt to prevent the exe- 
eution of this will such child shall forfeit what is here 
given to him or her;’’ that said other children now 
insist that it was the intention of decedent to include, 
at the time of the execution of the will, all notes 
formerly held or owned by her, whether paid or un- 
paid; that in view of the circumstances surrounding 
the testatrix, at the time of the execution of the will, 
she meant, by use of the words ‘‘execution of the will’’ 
the probate of the will; that she did not intend that 
any child’s interest in her estate should be charged 
with the payment of any paid or liquidated notes 
which might be in her possession at the time of her 
death; that the said sixth clause of said will is ambigu- 
ous and uncertain, and its true meaning and intent 
should be rendered certain by a construction of this 
court; appellee prays that the court will construe said 
will and that she may have such other and further re- 
lief in the premises as equity may require, ete. 

The defendant, R. L. Webber, adminstrator with 
the will annexed, answered the bill and denied that ap- 
pellee is entitled to the relief or any part thereof, and 
prays that the bill be dismissed, ete.

Defendants, William T, Barton and Mabel McCoy, 
answered and deny that the note executed by appel- 
lee was ever paid by her in any manner or that the 
conveyance of the real estate mentioned therein was 
in payment of said note, but allege that said note 
never has been paid; that it was always in the posses- 
sion of the testatrix up to the time of her death and 
that she never promised appellee in her life time that 
she would cancel the same; that under the sixth clause 
of the will the note is evidence of an advancement to 
appellee and must be deducted from her share of the 
estate; that appellee is trying to contest the validity 
of the will under the guise of a construction thereof 
and that its provisions are clear and unambiguous and 
need no construction, whereby the court is without 
jurisdiction of the subject matter. 

On account of the fact that the regular master in 
chancery of said court was disqualified because of be- 
ing interested in said suit the cause was referred to 
Vernon Briggs, as Special Master, to take the evidence 
and report the same together with his findings of fact 
and conclusions of law. 

The master found that on or about May 17, 1923, 
Lula A. Black was indebted to said Mary A. Barton 
in the sum of $5680.00, which was evidenced by a note 
bearing interest at the rate of 6% per annum and upon 
which note her husband, William S. Black, and Hattie 
H. Black were sureties; that said William 8S. Black and 
Hattie H. Black were, on November 1, 1927, the own- 
ers of the east half of the southwest quarter and the 
northwest quarter of the southeast quarter of section 
six in Township one south, range four west of the 
fourth principal meridian in Brown County, Illinois, 
and that at that said time the fair cash market value 
of the same was $18000.00; that the same was subject 
to a mortgage in favor of the State Savings, Loan and 
Trust Company, Quincy, Illinois, securing an indebted- 
ness of Seven Thousand Five Hundred dollars; that 
on said date appellee and her husband, William S. 
Black, were indebted to the Timewell State Bank in the 
sum of $2090.69, to the Timewell Farmers Co-oper- 
ative Company in the sum of $431.78, and to M. E. 
McCabe in the sum of $131.19; said last three items of 
indebtedness having been reduced to judgment in the 
Cireuit Court of Brown County, Mlinois. 

That on November 1, 1927, said William S. Black 
and Lula A. Black, his wife, and Hattie H. Black made, 
executed and delivered to Mary A. Barton a warranty 
deed for said real estate for the stated consideration 
of one dollar and other considerations; that at said 
time Mary A. Barton satisfied the indebtedness of 
William S. Black, Lula A. Black and Hattie H. Black

above mentioned to the Timewell State Bank, the 
Timewell Farmers Co-operative Company and to 
M. EK. McCabe. That the note for the sum of $5680. 00, 
payable to the order of Mary A. Barton, was never de- 
livered to either William S. Black, ula A. Black or 
Hattie H. Black, but that said note remained in the 
unconscious possession of said Mary A. Barton. That 
from and after the acceptance of said warranty deed 
to said real estate said Mary A. Barton did not con- 
sider her said daughter, Lula A. Black, nor her hus- 
band nor said Hattie H. Black indebted to her by 
reason of and on account of the execution of said 
$5680.00 note. 

The Master concludes that said note for $5680.00, 
executed by Lula A. Black, William S. Black and 
Hattie H. Black and payable to Mary A. Barton, 
should not be considered evidence of an advancement 
against the interest of Lula A. Black in and to the 
estate of Mary A. Barton, deceased, under the terms 
of her last will and testament and that the same is not 
an asset of the estate of Mary A. Barton, deceased. 

That the word ‘‘hold’’ in the first paragraph of the 
sixth clause of the said last will and testament of said 
Mary A. Barton, deceased, should be construed not to 
mean mere possession of liquidated obligations but 
ownership of valid existing and unliquidated obliga- 
tions, if any. That in the second paragraph of said 
sixth clause of said last will and testament of Mary 
A. Barton, deceased, the words ‘‘attempt to prevent 
the execution of this will,’? should be construed to 
mean ‘‘attempt to prevent the probate of this will,’’ 
and that the filing of the bill by appellee should not 
operate as a forfeiture of her interest in the estate of 
said Mary A. Barton, deceased. 

Exceptions to the report of the master were over- 
ruled and a decree was entered in said cause, 

The court found that the note for $5680.00, which was 
owned by appellee to the deceased, Mary A. Barton, 
was extinguished and liquidated by a conveyance from 
William S. Black and Hattie H. Black to deceased of 
the real estate which was described in the bill of com- 
plaint and that the fair cash market value of said real 
estate at the time of the conveyance thereof was $20,- 
000.00, subject to a mortgage securing an indebtedness 
of $7,500.00, and that appellee and her husband were in- 
debted to the Timewell State Bank, the Timewell 
Farmers Co-Operative Company and M. E. McCabe 
in the total sum of $2,832.40, and that on November 1, 
1927, deceased agreed, in consideration of the convey- 
ance to her of the said real estate, that she would as- 
sume the payment of said mortgage, pay the indebted- 
ness of said bank, Co-operative Company and said M.E.

McCabe, and also release and discharge appellee and 
her husband, William 8. Black, and Hattie H. Black 
from all liability on said indebtedness then due and ow- 
ing from appellee and her husband, William 8. Black, 
and Hattie H. Black to said deceased, including the 
note for $5,680.00, and that said conveyance was exe- 
cuted upon that consideration. 

The court further found that a dispute had arisen 
between the defendants, Mabel McCoy and William T. 
Barton, and appellee as to the proper construction to 
be placed upon the sixth clause of said will; that said 
William T, Barton and Mabel McCoy claim that, unless 
the note for $5,680.00 with accrued interest from its 
date until the time of the death of the testatrix is paid 
by appellee, that she will forfeit all right to any devise 
or legacy under said last will and testament and that 
it was proper that said clause should be construed and 
that the said suit is brought in good faith for the pur- 
pose of enabling the estate to be properly administered 
and settled; that said William T, Barton and Mabel 
McCoy claim that under the following language in said 
last will and testament, namely: ‘‘any note or notes 
I may hold against either of my said children is to be 
considered an advancement against such child and is to 
be deducted from such child’s share in my estate’’, 
the said note of $5,680.00 and accrued interest, although 
paid and extinguished, must be considered an advance- 
ment and deducted from appellee’s share in said estate, 
and found that it was not the intention of the testatrix 
that said amount was to be deducted from the share of 
appellee. 

It was ordered by the court that said indebtedness 
of appellee in the sum of $5,680.00, evidenced by said 
promissory note, has been and the same is declared to 
be liquidated, cancelled, discharged and paid and is 
not an asset of said estate and that none of the makers 
thereof are indebted thereon to said estate; that the 
language in said will, ‘‘any note or notes I may hold 
against either of my said children is to be considered 
an advancement against such child and is to be de- 
ducted from such child’s share in my estate’’, be, and 
the same is hereby construed to mean any unpaid notes; 
that appellee has not attempted to prevent the execu- 
tion of the last will and testament of deceased or tried 
to break such will and that appellee has done nothing 
to forfeit her interest in any devise or legacy under 
said will. 

The defendants, William T. Barton and Mabel Mc- 
Coy, prayed an appeal to this court and perfected the 
same by giving bond as required by the order of said 
court and are the sole appellants in this court.

The principal reason urged for a reversal of said 
decree is that appellee had a full, adequate and com- 
plete remedy at law, and that the language contained 
in said will had a certain definite legal meaning and 
was not ambiguous and that there is no latent ambig- 
uity in said will and that the bill should therefore have 
been dismissed for want of equity. 

No trust being involved in this will, jurisdiction to 
construe the same must then depend upon the Act of 
June 5, 1911, Cahill’s St. Ch. 22 Par. 50, which con- 
ferred jurisdiction upon courts of equity to hear and 
determine bills in equity to construe wills notwithstand- 
ing no question of a trust is involved therein. 

While such authority is conferred by said amend- 
ment, yet it is error for a court of equity to assume 
jurisdiction to construe a will when there is no doubt 
or uncertainty as to the rights and interests of the par- 
ties arising from ambiguous language in the will. 
Bimslager v. Bimslager, 323 Il. 303. 

Equity will entertain a bill for the construction of a 
will which, though clear on its face, discloses a latent 
ambiguity when read in the light of extrinsic facts. 
Heckler v. Young, 264 Til. App. 34. 

A reading of the will discloses that it is very crudely 
drawn and that it presents sufficient ambiguity in the 
language used to give the court jurisdiction to construe 
it. 

The evidence which includes the testimony of disin- 
terested witnesses fully sustains the findings of the 
Master and the Court that the conveyance of the real 
estate made to testatrix was in liquidation of the in- 
debtedness of appellee. The court will not construe 
an indebtedness of a devisee or legatee which was paid 
to the testatrix in her life time to be an advancement 
to be deducted from such devise or legacy. 

The decree of the Circuit Court is affirmed. 

Decree affirmed.

William L. Patton, Appellee’ v. Mary Ann Adams, 
AppeHants. 


Appeal from Circuit Court of Sangamon County. 
S Y ‘os 
January Term, A. D, 1934, 2 "4 Lr 
Gen. No. 8818 Agenda No. 12 


Mr. Justice Davis delivered the opinion of the 
court. 

By this appeal appellant is seeking to reverse an 
order of the Circuit Court of Sangamon County, sus- 
taining an order entered by the Probate Court of said 
county, in a matter arising in the administration of 
the estate of Harriet Kerneghen, deceased. 

In March, 1932, the law firm of Follansbee, Shorey 
& Schupp, of Chicago, Illinois, received a letter from 
Thomas Elliott, a solicitor residing at Newry, Ireland, 
concerning the estate of Harriet Kerneghen, deceased, 
in which he stated that he was acting for Mary Ann 
Adams, of Lisadian, Ireland, and that Thomas Jarrett, 
of Springfield, Illinois, was the solicitor dealing with 
the estate, and stating that no money had been paid 
over to his clients and that they were getting old and 
are in poor circumstances, and requesting said firm 
to ascertain the full particulars of the estate and write 
him concerning the matter. 

The firm of Follansbee, Shorey & Schupp wrote a let- 
ter to William L. Patton, appellee, referring the mat- 
ter to him and asking him to investigate. Harriet Ker- 
neghen died testate on May 1, 1928, and letters testa- 
mentary were issued to Thomas L. Jarrett on June 
28, 1928, upon his giving bond in the penal sum of 
$40,000.00. He inventoried personal assets amounting 
to the sum of $23,000.00. 

By the terms of her will the money was to be divided 
equally between a number of legatees, one of whom 
was appellant, Mary Ann Adams. Jarrett filed no 
report until January 10, 1931. Appellee entered his 
appearance for appellant in said estate and proceeded 
to investigate the same and filed objections to said 
report, alleging that it contained improper charges, 
excessive claims by the executor for fees and expenses 
and false credits for alleged payments of legacies 
which had not in fact been paid. Another report was 
filed by the executor on August 12, 1932, to which ap- 
pellee also filed objections. The results of these pro- 
ceedings was that Jarrett as such executor was forced 
to make settlement by the Probate Court.

Thomas Jarrett, the executor, procured an order to 
make partial distribution to appellant in the sum of 
$2000.00, which was paid by the executor by a check 
payable to the order of appellee, who remitted the same 
to Follansbee, Shorey & Schupp, who advised Elliott 
of the payment and that they would forward the same 
to him as soon as his client, the appellant, should sign 
and return a receipt and agree that they should receive 
as a fee for their services performed the sum of 
$300.00. From the correspondence introduced in evi- 
dence, it appears that appellant refused to agree to 
pay the $300.00 as a fee and repudiated Elliott’s em- 
ployment as her solicitor. Elliott advised Follansbee, 
Shorey & Schupp of these facts and they returned the 
$2000.00 to appellee, who filed his petition in the Pro- 
bate Court for leave to deposit the fund with the clerk 
and for an order fixing appellee’s solicitor’s fee at 
$300.00, and that the clerk be directed to pay the fee 
out of the fund. The Probate Court entered an order 
in accordance with the prayer of the petition, and the 
Circuit upon appeal entered a_ similar order. 
Depositions of Elliott, appellant, and other witnesses 
were taken in Ireland and read in evidence upon the 
hearing on said petition. It was stipulated on the hear- 
ing by counsel for appellant that a fee of $300.00 was 
a reasonable fee, and that the amount of the fee was not 
disputed. 

Appellant relies upon two errors for a reversal of 
the order of the Circuit Court: First, that the Pro- 
bate Court had no jurisdiction to make the order en- 
tered by it, and that for such reason the Cireuit Court 
was without jurisdiction; second, that the evidence 
failed so show employment of Elliott, and hence ap- 
pellee was without authority to act on behalf of appel- 
lant. 

Appellee stated in his petition, filed in the Probate 
Court, that he brings into court a check for $2,000.00 
and prays that he may be allowed to deposit the same 
with the clerk of said court and that the clerk be in- 
structed and authorized to procure payment of said 
check and hold the proceeds subject to the further or- 
der of the court, and that the clerk be authorized, or- 
dered and directed to pay petitioner out of said pro- 
ceeds the sum of $300.00, in full for services rendered 
by petitioner on behalf of said Mary Ann Adams. 

Appellant moved the court to strike the petition of 
appellee from the files for the reason that the court 
had no jurisdiction to hear said petition or adjudicate 
the same, and for the further reason that the petition 
shows no employment of appellee. After a similar 
motion was overruled by the Cireuit Court appellant, 
by leave of court, filed an answer to said petition, in 
which she says: That appellee was, at no time or in

any manner, expressly or impliedly retained or employ- 
ed or instructed to act for her in the matters alleged 
in the petition. The questions, that were presented to 
the Probate Court for hearing and determination, were 
as to whether appellee was ever retained by appellant 
or had authority to represent her and look after her 
interests in said estate, and, if so, the fixing of a proper 
allowance for such services. 

None of the acts of appellee in representing the in- 
terest of appellant in said estate in said Probate Court 
were repudiated by appellant or called to the attention 
of the court, and said dispute did not affect or inter- 
fere with the proper administration of said estate in 
any way. Appellant, upon being informed that ap- 
pellee had obtained the sum of $2,000.00, which was 
ordered by the court to be paid to her, did not come into 
court and charge that appellee was without authority 
to represent her and that, by virtue of his appearance 
as her solicitor, he had obtained the $2,000.00 that was 
ordered paid to her, and refused to pay the same over 
unless she consented to pay him the sum of $300.00 for 
his services in so representing her, and thus give the 
court jurisdiction to investigate such charges and de- 
termine whether appellee was employed and was au- 
thorized to represent appellant. 

The Probate Court is concerned in no way with the 
dispute that has arisen between Mary Ann Adams and 
appellee, William L. Patton, as to whether he was em- 
ployed or in any way authorized to guard the interests 
of appellant in said estate, or if so, as to what would be 
reasonable compensation for such services as he had 
performed. 

The fact that the court was in control of said fund 
would not give its jurisdiction to hear and determine 
the questions in dispute between appellant and appel- 
lee. It would have no more jurisdiction to hear and de- 
termine the dispute as to the employment of appellee 
and the fixing of proper solicitor’s fees than it would 
have in any other case where some matter of dispute 
arose between a legatee and his attorney in the settle- 
ment of an estate. 

If as a matter of fact appellee was employed by 
appellant as her solicitor, to guard her interests in said 
estate, he had a right to collect the $2,000.00 for his 
client, retain his reasonable compensation for his serv- 
ices, and remit the balance to his client without the aid 
of any court. 

The Cireuit and Probate Courts being without juris- 
diction to hear and determine the petition of appellee, 
the order of the Circuit Court is reversed and the cause 
remanded to that court with directions to dismiss the 
petition for want of jurisdiction. 

Reversed and remanded with directions.

Appeal from Circuit Court, Edgar County. 


Ocroser TERM, 1933. } Py

Gen. No. 8777 Agenda No. 23 

Mr. Justice Fuuron delivered the opinion of the 
court. 

On June 15, 1931, Appellee, Richard Vaughn, who 
was then a minor, and Emmett C. Vaughn, purchased 
a Chevrolet Truck from the Simpson Chevrolet Com- 
pany. The purchase price was $948.00. Part payment 
was made by turning over to the vendor a 1930 Chev- 
rolet Coupe, at a value of $324.00 and the balance of 
$624.00 was to be paid in monthly installments of $52.00 
until paid. Both Appellees signed a conditional sales 
contract. On the same date Appellant purchased the 
contract and note. Thereafter the Vaughns made one 
payment of $52.00 which was the total amount paid 
under the contract. Because of the default and failure 
to make further monthly payments, Appellant insti- 
tuted this replevin suit on November 3, 1931, to re- 
cover possession of the truck. Ona trial in the Edgar 
County Cireuit Court an alternative judgment was 
rendered against Appellant which in substance found 
Appellee Richard Vaughn entitled to the possession of 
the property in question and required Appellant to pay 
Richard Vaughn the sum of $377.00 and interest with- 
in ten days or return the property to said Appellee. 

Before the commencement of the replevin suit a rep- 
resentative of Appellant demanded possession of the 
truck from Richard Vaughn and testifies he was told 
that ‘‘if’’ and ‘‘when’’ he paid back to the minor what 
the latter had paid on the car he could have it. While 
other questions are argued the controlling one was 
whether or not an adult can sell personal property to 
a minor on a conditional sales contract, receive part 
payment, and upon default by the minor and refusal 
to complete the payments due, take the property in an 
action of replevin, and compel the minor to start an 
independent suit for the recovery of payments made. 

It is insisted by Appellant that there was no repudia- 
tion of the contract by the minor, but the testimony of 
Appellant’s agent that he demanded the truck from 
Appellee Vaughn and was told he could have it when 
the payment made by Vaughn was returned to him, is 
sufficient proof of repudiation.

It is further contended by Appellant that there can 
be no repudiation without a return of the property and 
there is no authority in law for an infant to hold the 
property as security for the return of his payments. 
It is conceded that upon the repudiation of a contract 
by a minor because of infancy, the rights of the parties 
are wholly governed by law, and not by their contract. 
Fuller v. Pool, 258 App. 513. To hold that an infant 
must consent to the replevin, return the property and 
then start a new and independent suit for the payments 
made, places the minor at a great disadvantage and 
would entail needless delay and expense. We believe 
the adjustment of rights between parties growing out 
of the same transaction should be determined in one 
action if permitted under the law. In an action of 
replevin by a mortgagor where the mortgagee set up by 
plea the notes and mortgage, alleging the non-payment 
of the last of the series of notes, the mortgagor replied 
that in making a sale of the property to him the mort- 
gagee had made a warranty in respect thereto, of which 
there had been a breach, and that the damages arising 
from such breach equaled in amount the unpaid note, 
it was held that such a defense to the note was admis- 
sible. Hutt v. Bruckman et al, 55 Tl. 441. In Hamilton 
v. Singer Manufacturing Co. 54 Ill. 370, the court held 
that a machine delivered to an adult upon which a part 
payment had been made could not be recovered in re- 
plevin without the returning of the payment made by 
the defendant. To the same effect is O. & M. Ry. Co. v. 
Noe, 77 Il. 518. It is our judgment that Richard 
Vaughn being a minor had a legal right to repudiate 
his contract: that having made payments upon the pur- 
chase price of the truck he had a special property in 
the truck and was rightfully in possession until the 
$377.00 was paid to him. 

The alternative judgment entered by the Court was 
proper under the facts in this case and the judgment of 
the Circuit Court is affirmed. 

Affirmed.

PusuLisHED In ABSTRACT 


H. Fr Zelle, Appellee, v. The Morton State Bank, 
a7 





5 Appellant. 
Yoveal from Circuit Court, Tazewell County. ' 
January Term, A. D. 1934. yb é 
Gen. No. 8786 Agenda No. 2 


Mr. Justicn Fuiron delivered the opinion of the 
court. 

This was a suit in assumpsit brought by Appellee, 
H. F. Zelle, against the Morton State Bank, a corpora- 
tion, Appellant. The declaration consisted of the com- 
mon counts and attached to the declaration was the 
verified affidavit of Appellee’s claim. The affidavit in 
substance recites that the demand of Appellee is for 
money due him upon an agreement to repurchase bonds 
sold to him by Appellant bank through its agent and 
cashier, Fred Reuling Jr.; that subsequent to making 
the purchase of certain bonds the Appellee made de- 
mand upon Appellant to repurchase said bonds and to 
pay him the sum of $4,125.38, representing the amount 
paid by Appellee to Appellant for said bonds, together 
with accrued interest; also that the bonds were tend- 
ered back to Appellant at the time the demand for re- 
payment was made. 

Appellant filed a plea of general issue supported by 
an affidavit of meritorious defense, in which a denial 
was made of the making of the agreement to repur- 
chase. The Appellant also filed an additional plea of 
the Statute of Frauds reciting that the agreement set 
forth in Appellee’s declaration was not in writing; that 
it was not to be performed within one year from the 
time of the making thereof and was therefore void. 
Both at the close of the plaintiffs evidence and at the 
close of all the testimony, Appellant moved the Court 
to instruct the jury to return a verdict for the defend- 
ant and submitted an instruction for that purpose. In 
each instance the motion was denied and the instruction 
refused. The jury returned a verdict for Appellee as- 
sessing his damages at $4,250.12. Motion for new trial 
was overruled and judgment was entered on the ver- 
dict from which Appellant prosecutes this appeal. 

The facts are directly in dispute. Appellee testified 
that he had long been a stockholder and a customer of 
the Appellant bank; that on May 1, 1929 he spoke to 
Fred Reuling Jr. the cashier, about the purchase of 
some Morton Paving bonds, to which Reuling replied 
they had none. Appellee then replied that in that event

he would like to buy some Morton Grade School bonds. 
Reuling replied they had none of those but that they 
had other bonds just as good. After considerable con- 
versation Appellee said he would not be interested in 
any other bonds unless the Appellant bank would agree 
to repurchase them at any time Appellee desired to 
sell them; that Reuling replied that he would only be 
too glad to agree to such an arrangement; that there- 
upon on two different occasions under the same agree- 
ment Appellee purchased bonds from the bank and 
paid for them; that late in the fall of 1931 and before 
there was any default in interest upon the bonds so 
purchased he applied to Fred Reuling to cash one or 
two of the bonds as per the agreement of the bank to 
buy them back at any time. Mr. Reuling informed him 
that they had no funds available for that purpose just 
then but probably could later on; that on many more 
occasions Appellee applied to Mr. Reuling to repur- 
chase the bonds under the agreemnt but the bank re- 
fused to take them over. 

In behalf of Appellant, Fred Reuling Jr., testified 
and denied making the agreement to repurchase the 
bonds. While appellant argues other reasons for re- 
versing the judgment, it is apparent from the opinion 
of the Supreme Court in the recent case of Knass v. 
Madison & Kedzie Bank 354 Tl. 554, that the contract 
here relied upon by Appellee is void as against public 
policy, and that it was entirely outside of the power of 
the bank to make any such contract. No plea of ultra 
vires was filed in the instant case but a motion at the 
close of Appellee’s evidence to return a verdict in favor 
of Appellant raised the question of the sufficiency of 
the evidence and should have been granted by the 
Court because Appellee’s case was dependent upon a 
void contract which the Court did not have the power 
to enforce. In accordance with the Knass ease above 
cited the Appellee was charged with notice that the 
bank was utterly without power to make the repur- 
chase agreements, 

Because the Appellee failed to make out a sufficient 
case it was error for the Court to deny the peremptory 
motion made at the close of Appellee’s proof and the 
case is therefore reversed. 

Reversed.

Jack T. Reynolds, a Minor, by Merle -Reyxolds, his 
Father and next friend, Defendants “inError, v. 
C. O. Wedeberg, Doing Business as ‘‘The 
Medical Clinic,’ and Adolph Jacob 
Newman, Plaintiffs in Error. 


Error to the Circuit Court, Sangamon County. 


SEFY A 
Octoser Term, A. D. 1933. 2 "4 4h 


Gen. No. 8795 Agenda No. 11 


Mr. Justicn Fuuron delivered the opinion of the 
court. 

This was an action of trespass on the case brought 
by Jack T. Reynolds, a minor, of the age of eight 
years, by his father and next friend for personal in- 
juries sustained by said minor on June 17, 1932, by 
reason of the negligent operation of an X-ray machine 
by the Plaintiffs in Error. 

A trial by jury resulted in a verdict for defendant 
in error for the sum of $7500.00 which by order of the 
trial court and consented to by the Defendant in Error 
was reduced by remittitur to $2000.00 and for the 
latter amount judgment was entered. From that judg- 
ment Plaintiffs in Error have prosecuted this writ of 
error, 

The declaration in substance charges that at the 
time of the injury the Plaintiffs in Error conducted 
and operated, in the City of Springfield, an institution 
known as the ‘‘Medical Clinic’; that Plaintiff in 
Error, Dr. Wedeberg, owned and managed said Medi- 
cal Clinic, and that Dr. Newman, the other Plaintiff 
in Error, actually operated the said clinic as the agent 
of Wedeberg; that in said Medical Clinic was an X-ray 
machine; that the said Jack T. Reynolds with all due 
care went to said Medical Clinic for examination and 
treatment and that Plaintiffs in Error accepted said 
employment; that the said Dr. Adolph Jacob Newman, 
as the agent and servant of Dr. Wedeberg then con- 
ducted such examination and treatment of the said 
minor by the use of said X-ray machine, but that Dr. 
Newman so negligently and carelessly operated the 
same in such a manner as to cause the Defendant in 
Error to be severely burned about the head, face and 
arms, and that he suffered a severe shock and injury 
to his nervous system. The Plaintiffs in Error pleaded 
the general issue and in addition each of them filed 
separate pleas denying the joint ownership and opera- 
tion of said Medical Clinic, and further denying that

in the operation thereof the Plaintiff in Error New- 
man was acting as the agent of Dr. Wedeberg. 

Plaintiffs in Error urge two grounds for reversal. 
First, that at the time of the injury Wedeberg was no 
longer connected with the operation of the Medical 
Clinic, and that a judgment against both Plaintiffs in 
Error is contrary to the manifest weight of the 
evidence. 

In support of the joint liability the Defendant in 
Error introduced testimony showing that Dr. Wede- 
berg, a dentist by profession, maintained his private 
office at the southwest corner of the intersection of 
Monroe and Fitth streets in the City of Springfield. 
At the northwest corner of this same intersection was 
located a brick building owned by one Claypool, on the 
first floor of which was conducted Claypool’s drug 
store. At some time before the injury Dr. Wedeberg 
rented the rooms above the drug store and began the 
operation of what is described as the ‘‘ Medical 
Clinic’’, One room was used as a reception room, the 
rooms to the north were occupied by the ‘‘Medical 
Clinic’’ and those to the south by the ‘‘ Dental Clinic’’. 
Dr. Wedeberg paid the rent on all of the rooms to 
Claypool. He also employed the janitor and paid him. 
This janitor also cared for Dr. Wedeberg’s private 
office. He employed an office girl who served both 
clinics. The advertising for the Medical Clinic was 
submitted to Dr. Wedeberg upon which he placed his 
O. K. for the credit of same. Dr. Meyer, an employe 
of the Medical Clinic before the re-arrangement in 
March 1932, and from that point on with the ‘‘Dental 
Clinic’’ testified that both he and Dr. Newman made 
weekly reports to Dr. Wedeberg, down to July, 1932, 
at which time Dr. Meyer severed his connection with 
the ‘‘Dental Clinic’’. 

He also testified that Dr. Wedeberg told him in the 
latter part of June 1932, that he was going to cut all 
their salaries including Dr. Newman. On this issue 
Plaintiff in Error proved by Dr. Wedeberg and Dr. 
Newman that the latter was employed on a salary 
from January 6, 1932, until March 14, 1932, to operate 
the Medical Clinic. That on the latter date Dr. New- 
man took over the Medical Clinic as his own, paying 
rent for the office space and equipment: that he was 
furnished janitor service as part of the rental agree- 
ment, and that Dr. Wedeberg was only the landlord on 
June 17, 1932, at the time of the injury. This testi- 
mony about the change in management on March 14, 
1932, was corroborated by Mr. Ransdell and Dr. 
Marshack. 

While the testimony of the defendant in error is 
somewhat circumstantial in its nature, there were suf-

ficient facts proven to warrant the court in submitting 
to the jury the question of whether or not Dr. Wede- 
burg was interested as an owner of the Medical Clinic 
on June 17, 1932, and having found that issue of fact 
in favor of the defendant in error, there is nothing so 
convincing about the proof of Plaintiffs in Error as to 
justify this Court in finding that the verdict was con- 
trary to the manifest weight of the evidence. 

The other assignment of error relied on by Plain- 
tiffs in Error was that the verdict of the jury was ex- 
cessive and that the action of the Court in ordering a 
remittitur from $7500.00 to $2000.00 indicated that the 
verdict was the result of passion and prejudice and 
should be set aside. In this case the defendant in 
error, a boy eight years of age, had injured his arm 
and desired an X-ray picture taken to ascertain 
whether the arm was broken. His mother took him to 
the medical clinic where Dr. Newman was in charge 
and he proceeded to take the picture. We think the 
evidence clearly shows that Dr. Newman negligently 
permitted the spark-gap to be placed too close to the 
boy’s head and when the current in the X-ray machine 
was turned on it caused an intense spark to jump from 
the end of the tube to the left side of the boy’s head 
and out from his left arm to the metallic cone attached 
to the tube. The boy immediately fainted, became 
unconscious and fell from the chair in which he was 
placed to the floor. The incident occurred in the fore- 
noon and the boy did not regain complete conscious- 
ness until evening. In addition to the shock, the hair 
on the left side of his head was singed off and burned 
for an area about the size of the palm of a hand and 
there were severe burns about the head and arms. The 
burns did not heal for about three months. The shock 
affected the boys nervous system so that he could not 
sleep well at night, was extremely nervous, lost weight, 
tired easily and was not so robust as before the injury. 
The doctors were unable to state how long this condi- 
tion might continue. We do not think the judgment 
for $2000.00 was so excessive under these circum- 
stances as to warrant the Court in setting it aside. 

‘‘Remittiturs in action ex delicto, by the trial and 
Appellate Courts have been approved by this Court 
numbers of times’’. Sandy v. Lake St. El. R. R. Co., 
935 Ill. 194, citing Chicago City Ry. Co. v. Gemmill, 
209 Ill. 638. 

We do not find any substantial error in this record 
and the judgment of the lower court is therefore af- 
firmed. Affirmed,

L. H. Hulan, et al, Defendants ah Error/v. Lester 
Goodman, et al, Plaintiffs in 





Writ of Error to Circuit Court, Greene County. 


Oe A 
January Term, A. D. 19384. 4; 4 “@ 


Gen. No. 8816 Agenda No, 11 


Mr. Justicr Fuuron delivered the opinion of the 
court. 

Defendants in Error filed their bill in aid of execu- 
tion to set aside two deeds executed by Lester G. 
Goodman and his wife to D. J. Williams and to sub- 
ject the premises therein described to a sale under an 


alias execution. The decree of the Circuit Court found - 


that the deeds were made without consideration, with 
intent to hinder, delay and defraud the grantor’s 
creditors and that the grantee D. J. Williams, held the 
title to the real estate for the use and benefit of Lester 
G. Goodman. Plaintiffs in Error insist there is no evi- 
dence in the record to support any of said findings. 
The proof shows that Lester G. Goodman was a son- 
in-law of D. J. Williams; that on November 29, 1928, 
Goodman and his wife conveyed the real estate in con- 
troversy to the said D. J. Williams by two deeds which 
were filed for record on August 8, 1930; that Lester G. 
Goodman was also a stockholder and director for 
many years in the Kane State & Savings Bank of 
Kane, Illinois, which closed its doors and ceased to do 
any business on August 14, 1930; that subsequently the 
Defendants in Error, as creditors of said bank brought 
suit to enforce the liability of the bank’s stockholders 
and on September 17, 1931, recovered a decree against 
Goodman for $2000.00, he being the owner of twenty 
shares of stock in the closed bank; that an execution 
was issued thereon and returned nulla bona by order 
of complainants attorney. The testimony of the 
Plaintiffs in Error shows quite conclusively that at the 
time of the conveyances in November 1928, Lester G. 
Goodman was indebted to his father-in-law in the sum 
of $4700.00 which was cancelled at the time the deeds 
were delivered, and that the said amount was a reason- 
able consideration for the land conveyed. While the 
fact that the deeds were dated in November 1928, and 
not recorded until August 8, 1930, might, because of 
the relationship of the parties be considered a sus- 
picious circumstance, still the execution of the deeds

in 1928 is quite definitely established by the testimony 
of the Notary who took the acknowledgment and the 
party who attested the deed as a witness. 

The evidence presented on the part of the Defend- 
ants in Hrror tends to show that the bank had not paid 
dividends for many years; that Goodman had attended 
directors meetings and knew something about the af- 
fairs of the bank which had not been particularly pros- 
perous for several years before closing; that an assess- 
ment of 50% was levied upon all the stockholders in 
September 1929; that the report of the examiner under 
date of June 19, 1930, showed the condition of the bank 
to be unsatisfactory and that the children of Goodman 
and certain officers of the bank had withdrawn small 
deposits from the bank shortly before it closed. 

While the testimony disclosed the financial condition 
of the Kane State & Savings Bank and that it was not 
flournishing it is reasonable to infer from all the evi- 
dence that its officers and directors did not feel that 
it would have to close its doors until the last few days 
before August 14, 1930. The deeds were executed and 
delivered in 1928, about one year before the sensa- 
tional collapse in prices and general business affairs, 
and almost two years before the bank closed. 

We do not feel that the facts proven are sufficient to 
warrant a finding of fraudulent intent on the part of 
Goodman and against his creditors in the making of 
these deeds. Fraud will not be presumed but must be 
proved by clear and convincing evidence, Garrett v. 
Garrett, 343 Ill. 577. Where a conveyance is made 
upon a valuable consideration and is alleged to be 
fraudulent as against the grantor’s creditors, an actu- 
al and express fraudulent intent must be proved with- 
out the aid of any legal presumptions, and it must ap- 
pear that both parties participated in the fraud; it is 
not enough that the conveyance may have the effect 
to delay and hinder creditors, Behrens v. Steidley, 198 
Ill. 803. State Bank of Mansfield v. Moore State Bank, 
249 App. 237. 

The fact that the parties were related is no proof of 
fraud or that there was no bona fide indebtedness. 
Ayers National Bank v. Barber, 287 Til. 182. 

In the present case the conveyances were to Mrs. 
Goodman’s father, but he lived twenty miles distant 
from Kane and there is no testimony showing that he 
had any knowledge whatever of the bank’s condition 
or that he was in any way connected with its business 
affairs. He was employed by the Burlington Railroad 
as a bridge and building foreman and was away from 
home at least six days every week. 

It is our judgment that the evidence does not sup- 
port the finding that the deeds in this case were made

EDRARDS, Fe Je 

This appeal is to review a decree of the Madison County Circuit 
Court, awarding a mechanic's lien, in the sum of $2,500.00, in favor of 
appellee, and against the appellants, J. B. Van FPreters and Luella R. 

Van Preters, growing out of a contract to install a heating system in the 
garage of the Van Preters, by the eppellee, and which “it was claimed did 
not conform to, nor fulfill, the terms of the contract. 

In August, 1929, appellant, J. B. Van Preters, contracted with 
appellee to install for him, in his garage then in course of construction, 
a heating plant consisting of a steam, air-driven with fan, system, which 
should heat the building to a temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit during 
outside zero weather. The contract price was to be $2,500.0G. The manner 
of payment was in dispute, and as to same, the testimony sharply conflict- 
ed. The heating plant was completed about January 30, 1930. No payments 
were made on the contract; p oper claims for lien were filed, and the fail- 
ure to pay is the basis of this suit. 


Appellants, the Van Preters, contend that the heating system did

not comply with the contract; that it would not, in zero weather, heat the 
building to anywhere near the 70 degrees; while appellee insists that, if 
properly fired, it would heat the garage to the required degree; that it 
was so proven by test, and that examination of the boiler and grates dis-=- 
closed that appellants did not properly tend the fire, nor did they use a 
sufficient amount of coal therefor. After a reference to the Master, he 
reported that the system was sufficient in all regards, except that the 
boiler was too small, and recommended that appellee be given 90 days time 
in which to make certain additions thereto, and that upon same being done, 
that appeliee should be entitled to a lien therefor. 

Upon hearing of the report before the Chancellor, the latter sus= 
tained certain exceptions to the Haster's report; made a general finding 
that the heating system was adequate, and conformed to the terms of the 
contract; that appellee should have his lien, and that same should be prior 
to the rights of appellant, Benid Loan Association, holder of a mortgage 
upon the garage property. From such decree this appeal is prosecuted. 

The heating plant consisted of a Capital Smokeless Steam Boiler, 
Noe 1127, with steam pipes leading -o five radiators. Behind these were 
motor-driven fans which blew the air through the rediators, thereoy heating 
the air and discharging it into the building. The boiler furnished the 
steam to the fans, placed in various positions in the building, by steam 
pressure from such boiler. The air from the fans cooled the radiators, con- 
densed the steam to water, and the water then returned to the boiler by 
2ravity through return pipes. The fans were suspended from the ceiling by 
brackets, and the boiler was located in the basement of the building, which 
was divided into two rooms, consisting of a front or show room, and a rear 
or repair and work shop. The building wes 75 feet in length, the front of 
which was all glass, set in copper frames, to form what is called frost- 
-proof windows; at the base of which were air slots, one-eighth of an inch 
high, five-eighths of an inch long, and spaced five inches apart, along the 


entire front of the bullding.

The testimony as to the salient features of the case, is sharply and 
irreconcilably conflicting. Appellant, J. B. Van Preters, and certain of 
his helpers, testified that they were unable to heat the building to 70 
degrees in zero weather, due to the fact, as they claimed, that when the 
boiler had sufficient steam, and the fans were turned on, that in about 15 
minutes the steam would go down; after which the fans would blow cold air, 
and they would have to be shut off to await a sufficient aghievement of 
steam in the boiler; that same was too small to keep a reserve of steam 
and constant pressure at the fans. There was also testimony offered by 
eppellant tending to show that the boiler was too small to furnish suffi- 
cient radiation for the building. 

For the appellee, the proof was to the effect that the boiler was 
of sufficient size, when properly fired, to furnish enough steam of constant 
quantity to suvply ali the necessary radiation; that investigation revealed 
that Van Preters did not properly tend the furnace, nor use sufficient coal. 
That on one occasion, a witness for appellee, who went to inspect the system, 
found that onlyabout one-fourth of the grates were covered with coal, which 
was not enough; that he inguired of the perty in charge, as to what was 
wrong with the boiler, and the latter replied: "Well, we don't want to burn 
a ton of coal a day." 

Appellee, himself, testified that he had personally fired the boiler, 
and that it responded by giving sufficient heat; that he found the pit rather 
choked with ashes, and on one occasion had removed three loads therefron. 

There was also evidence of a test made at the instance of appeilee, 
in February, 1930, on a morning when the temperature was about 10 degrees 
above zero; the result of which was, that the boiler fired by appellee, in 
two and one-half hours produced heat sufficient to raise the temperature of 
the building, in the sales room, to 75 degrees, and in the garage to 77 de- 
‘grees, as shown by calibrated thermometers teken there especially to record 


the result of the test.

Appellant sought to minimize the force of the test by offering proof 
that one of the thermometers was placed on the radiator of an automobile, 
in direct line with the air current from one of the fans, and that the tem- 
perature varied in different parts of the building at the time, as much 4s 
10 degrees. 


There was also expert testimony, for appeliee, to the effect that the 


r 


boiler was of sufficient size, if properly fired, to heat the building to a 
temperature of 70 degrees, when it stood at zero out of doors; also, that 
the air coming in through the slot apertures at the base of the frost-proof 
windows along the front of the building, would render it more difficult to 
heat than if the windows were of the ordinary closed type; while for the 
appellants, there was also the testimony of experts, to the contrary. 

Appellee claimed that at the time the contract was entered into, he 
did not know, nor was he told, that the windows were to be of this frost- 
proof variety, but that he supposed they were to be of ordinary kinde Ap- 
pellant, J. B. Van Preters, and Otis Grover, testified that appellee admitted 
to them that the heating system was not right, but that he had done ail in 
his power to make 1t 60+ These statements esppeilee denied. 

Whether the boiler was of adeauate size to heat the building to the 
required temperature, if properly fired; whether appellant tended it rightly 
or not, and whether it did in fact heat the building, as required by the con- 
tract, were all questions of fact. 

“here a decree has been entered, based upon findings of fact, after 
consideration by the Chancellor of a voluminous record of conflicting testi- 
nony, as in this case, it must clearly appear that the conclusions were 
palpably and manifestly against ‘he weight of the evidence, ia order to 
warrant a reversal of the decree. Cook ve Wolf, 296 I1l., 27. In the state 

-of this record, we are not prepa ed to say that the manifest weight of the 


testimony is contrary to ths findings o

Appellant, Benld Loan Association, placed a loan, secured by a mort— 
gage, upon the premises, on Sept. 38, 1989, or more than a month after 
appellee and the Van Preters entered into their contract. The rule is, 
that a mechanic's lien attaches from the date the contract is entered into, 
and whoever thereafter acquires an interest in the premises, takes same 
subject to the lien under the contract, and his rights are postponed to 
those of the lien holder. Crowen v. lieyer, 3428 Ill., 46. After the lien 
hes attached, whoever deals with the property, does so at his peril, and is 
under the duty of taking such msans as may be at his command, to ascertain 
whether the premises are incumbered by the lien, and whatever interest he 
may obtain therein is subject to such lien. Clark v. Moore, 64 Ill.e, 275. 
The decree rightfully adjudged the lien of appellee superior to that of the 
Benid Loan Association's mortzage. 


For the reasons stated, the decree is affirmed.

MURPHY, J: 


This case was before this court at a previous term. Several 
errors were assigned but the court, being of the opinion that 
appellee was not at the time of the accident in the exercise of due 
care and caution for her own safety, reversed the judgment of the 
lower court with a finding of fact to that effect and did not pass 
upon the other errors assigned. 269 I11. App. 77. The Supreme 
Court granted a certiorari and upon a hearing reversed the judgment 
of this court and remanded the cause with directions to consider 
the other errors assigneé and to either affirm the judgment or 


reverse the judgment and remand the cause. 353 Ill. 312, 

The facts bearing upon the question of negligence of appellant 
and contributory negligence of appellee are fully set forth in 
those opinions and will not be restated here. We will confine our 
statement of facts to that part of the evidence which we deem necessary 
to consider in connection with the other errors assigned, 

The remaining errors assigned are in reference to the ruiings 
of the court of the court on the admission and rejection of evidence 
in the giving of certain instructions tendered by appellee and that 
the verdict, after remittitur, is excessive. 

At the time appellee was injured, an employee of the hotel com- 
pany, called Dr. Griffith to treat her. On the trial, appellee call- 
ed the doctor as her witness. He testified as to the nature and extent 


of the injury and the treatment he administered. The record shows on 


rebuttal the following questions and answers. 
Q. “Did you make a charge for your services?" 
A. "I looked for it from the insurance company."

A. "I don't recollect--I know the first aid fee 
was paid.” 

Appellant made no objection at the time that the questions and 
answers were given, but later during the trial, made a motion to 
withdraw a juror and declare a mis-trial and assigned as a reason 
the witness* reference to an insurance company. It was a voluntary 
statement. The witness’ reference to the insurance company was not 
responsive to the question and was not brought into the case by 
appellee or her attorney. Appellant madeno motion to strike the 
evidence and did not ask the court to instruct the jury to disregard 
it. Had such motion been made, no doubt it would have been granted. 
The court did not err in overruling the motion to withdraw a juror 
and declare a mistrial. Savage v. Hayes Bros. Co., 142 Ill. App. 316, 

Appellant sought to prove by witness Widmer, an architect of 
many years experience, that the steps-up in the floor of the corridor, 
leading to the Fourth Street entrance, was a safe method of construc- 
tion and one that was usuaily followed in the erection of hotels and 


other public buildings in that vicinity. The court sustained ob- 
jection to such offer. The question for the jury did not call fora 


test of the sufficiency of such construction as compared with the 
construction of other publie buildings in that community but whether 
there was negligence in the keeping and maintaining of these steps- 
up under the conditions and surrounding circumstances that existed 
at the time of the accident. The solution of such a question by the 
jury did not lead them into a consideration of such intricate facts

- jury in determining the amount of damages to which the plaintiff was 


entitled, they had a right to and should take into consideration 
all the facts and circumstances, was criticized in Garvey Vv. Chicago 
Rys. Co., 359 Ill. 276, but held not to be reversible error. 

The remaining error assigned is as to the amount of the verdict. 
The verdict was for $9000. and the trial court required a remittitur 
of $1500. A remittitur was filed and judgment entered for $7500, 

The evidence shows that appellee's fall resulted in the fracture 
of the left forearm at or near the wrist. Ex-ray pictures were taken 
at the time of the accident and disclosed a fracture of the distal 
end of the radius extending approximately into the wrist joint and 
also a fracture of the styloid process at the end of the ulna bone. 
The bones in the region of the fracture were broken into parts causing 


greater pain and suffering and requiring longer period for recovery 


than is usual in an ordinary fracture. Immediately after the fracture 


had been reduced, appellee was taken to her home in Qmaha where she 
entered her husband's hospital for care and treatment, remaining 

there for a period of six weeks. After leaving the hospital, she was 
confined to her bed most of the time for @ period of six months. Dr. 
Schrock, a bone specialist in Omaha and Dr. Rubnitz, a pathologist on 
diseases of the blood and stomach, gave her medical attention, This 
extended over a long period of time. The injury was followed by cer- 
tain nervous disorders. After leaving the hospital, appellee wore a 
splint until July, 1931. The evidence shows that as a result of the 
injury, the bones were atrophied and weakened and that during all this 
time she suffered pain from the injury. Appellee's age is not shown 
in the abstract but from facts appearing in the record, we assume that 
she is middle age or .ast. Prior to the accident, she drove a car, 
did sewing and a part of her household duties in caring for her own 
home. The doctors, testifying for appellee, gave it as their opinion 
that the injury was permanent and that appellee would lose one-third 
the usefulness of that arm. It appears that further medical treatment 
would be necessary and thet at the time of the trial, the total pecuniary 
loss for medicine, medical bills and violet ray treatments wes in excess 
of $900. From a consideration of all the evidence, we cannot say that 
the verdict was the result of bias or prejudice of the jury or that it 


is so excessive as to demand a reversal on that ground. 


For the reasons assigned, the judgment of the lower court will be 


affirmed. Judgment Affirmed.

of this Court an opinion was filed 


West Frankfort. 


Stone, J: 

At the May Term, 1933 
in the above entitled cause, sustaining the demurrer to Plaintiff 
in Error's replicaticns to the pleas of Defendant in Error alleg-= 
ing that Plaintiff in Error was in contempt of the trial Court 
and therefore could not be heard here on his writ of error by 
reason of that fact Plaintiff in Error was given leave to file 
amended replications which he did.Demurrer was interposed to 
these aod upon further consideration, we filed an opinion on 


December 26th, 1933 holding that the amended replications did 


not answer the pleas. Being anxious, however, that no injustice 


be done, Plaintiff in Error, we said: 
"The trial ccurt is in better position than this 
eourt to determine what equity requires to purge plain- 


tiff in error of contempt. His present aiility to pay 


the amounts now unpaid is a question proper for that 


court to consider. WNo evidence on that subject is pre-~ 


served for our inspection. 

As his answer to the original bill was rejected by 
the trial court on his first contempt in refusing to 
pay, and the dismissing of his writ of error would per- 
haps deprive him of any right of review, (the decree being 


two years old, and a new law of practice takins effect 


January 1, next,) and as the lapse of time may have de- 


veloped facts which should be considered in a court of

equity with respect to the amount plaintiff in error 

ousht now to be required to pay, it is ordered that pro- 

ceedings in this court on the present writ of error be 

stayed until the first day of the next February term of 
this court. 

In the interim between nw and thet date, plaintiff 
in error, if he be so advised, may apply to the trial court 
for such modification of the existing orders concerning 
alimony and expense money to be paid by him, as equity 
may require, may make such showing to that court as the 
facts justify and purge himself of contempt. That court 
still retains jurisdiction of the questions of alimony 
and expense money involved in the original suit, in their 
application to the matter of contempt." 

In response to the above quoted part of our last opinion. 
Plaintiff in Error comes into Court with a lone report of con- 
troversies with the trial Court. He is in no better shape than 
he was on his wirt of error at the October Term or the May Tern, 
1933. We have made no progress. 

Je feel that we have been generous with Plaintiff in Error 
in this matter. We do not feel warranted in holding any longer 
the issue before us waiting for adjustment of matters which are 
cognizable only in the trial Court. 

As stated in ovr former opinion the replications do not 
answer the pleas and are obnoxous to demurrer. The demurrer to 
the replications is sustained; judgment is awarded upon the pleas 
and the writ of error is dismissed,
