This cause came on to be heard upon plaintiff’s motion for final judgment against the defendant, and the court finds —

That a default was entered against the defendant herein on April 22, 1959, for failure to answer or otherwise plead to the plaintiff’s complaint within the time allowed by law, the complaint and summons having been served on the defendant on December 18, 1958.

The said note provides among its terms an agreement by the maker to pay reasonable attorney’s fees for making collection. The plaintiff has further filed an affidavit in support of final judgment executed by Victor H. Hadley, the president of the plaintiff, Hadley Supply Company, Inc., which affidavit corroborates and certifies as true and correct the allegations of the sums due by the defendant to the plaintiff, as set forth in the plaintiff’s complaint, and the attorney’s fees affidavits of Albert L. Weintraub and Carrington Gramling.

That pursuant to the terms of the said promissory note, the defendant is indebted to the plaintiff in the principal sum of $495, plus interest at the rate of 6% per annum from January 6, 1958, plus reasonable attorney’s fees, plus costs of court.
