mon, but allege with the knowledge and
consent of the said Sternbergers.
The court charged the jury, that as 1t was
admitted that the note was given, not for a

incumbent on the plaintiffs to show, by a
fair preponderance OF proof that the en-
dorsement of the firm name on said note by

Of solomon and Emanuel Sternberger; or
with their knowledge and consent, and
that IL either of them had so authorized
