NELSON HoYT VS ALEX. GRAHAM.-In
this case, it appeared that at the last Nov.
term of this court, Mr.. Hoyt had taken
judgment upon a cognovit or judgment note,
against one Samuel Buchanan, and Mr..
Graham, for the sum of 500; that Mr.
Graham afterwards being Informed of the
matter, filed his petition in this court to set
aside the judgment as to him, for the rea-
son that his name had been forged to the
note and cognovit Whercupon the judg-
ment as to him was opened and set aside
at the present term, and thereupon the
case camo on to be tried before tho court
and Jury. The note was dated Feb. 5th,
1858, was made payable TO Nelson Hoyt;
given for 5000, due in niue months, with
10 per cent. interest, and purported to be
signed by Samuel Buchanan, Alex. Gra-
ham and Geo. W. Jinks, many witnesses
were examined to prove that the signature
to the note was the genuine signature Of
of Mr.. Graham. Among whom were sew
eral who had seen him write, and several
experts. The result of this evidence was,
that the signature in question in its general
character was like that of Mr.. Graham's,
but that there were several exceptions,
which were pointed out by the witnesses,
and the experts testified that they had seen
number of known forgeries bearing as
strong if not stronger resemblance to the
genuine, than tho signature in question:
Mr.. Graham who was witness on the
stand, testified that he did not sign the
note, and it Appeared from the evidence,
that the body of the note which was g
printed one, was filed up in the hand writ
ing Of the said Samuel Buchanan. II fur
thor appeared on the trial, that said Blu
chauan had fed the county to parts un
known, leaving behind him large indebt
edness unproyided for, that sometime before
he left, the plaintiff, Hoyt, hold two note
against him which he placed in the handi
of T. R. Strong, Of Norwalk, to be collect
ed or secured; that Mr.. Strong had called
upon Mr.. Buchanan to pay or secure sale
notes, and that sometime afterwards Blu
chanan brought the note in question tc
