AMHERST BANK VS.. LUTHER Roor.-
The only case OF general or exciting interest
tried at the late term of the Supreme Judicial
Court holden at this place was that of The
Amherst Bank vs.. Luther Root, former
Cashier of the Bank, and his six surviving
sureties.
The action against Root 81 els. was bro't
TO recover the sum of S20,000-lhe whole
penal sum OF the bond given by him and said
sureties for his faithful performance ofthe du-
ties oil the Amherst Bank, an office TO which
he was elected or appointed by the Directors
oil said Bank in 1881, at the time Of the date
OF said bond. The alleged breach of bond
consisted in unauthorized loans made, with.
out the knowledge Of the Directors, by Root
to one Moseiy Clapp and amounting at the
time OF the failure OF Clapp in 1885, and the
simultaneous discovery OF such transactions
by the Directors TO the sum OF $4,000,
which, with the interest, exceeded the penal
sum OF the bond
The defendants denied first, the execution
and delivery ofthe bond--and secondly, con-
tended that If The bond was duly executed and
delivered, the sureies thereto were not liable
for the breach declared upon by the plaintiffs
because the officer OF Cashier was an annual
office, and The records OF the Bank showed
that Root was elected annually 10 the sumo,
and the delalcalons charged upon said Roo,
were long subsequent; TO the expiration ol,he
year 10 which such bond was limited
The jury found that the bond was duly
executed and that said Roo, was not annual
" elected, or appointed Cashier subsequent
TO lS3l, and gave a verdict for Plaintiffs foi
the sum OF $40 900 the llropst yendirt nrob-
ably ever rendered by a Hampshire jury.
