Adolph Witschard, Plaintiff, v. A. Brody & Sons, Inc., and Others, Appellants; Edwin S. Buckley and Others, Respondents, and Jacob Rosenberg and Others, Defendants.
   Judgment affirmed, with costs. No opinion. Kapper, Hagarty, Carswell and Scudder, JJ., concur; Lazansky, P. J., dissents, being of opinion that the testimony shows that there was a guaranty by defendant A. Brody & Sons, Inc., of the account of Edwin S. Buckley; that such guaranty was within the Statute of Frauds, and that there was not a direct promise to pay, based upon a new consideration. Finding of fact 10 contains an inconsistent statement of facts, and the part more favorable to appellants, and which states that a guaranty was made, should be accepted.
