also that until such time the order this

he is an agent or member, which pre-

note to pay George N. Palmer 500

sharp enough to notice that the paper
is promissory note, they tell him the

however, the man is not willing, they
then write OH the end margin flor the
note has purposely a wide one the con-
dlton that the note shall not be col

thinks then he is safe and signs. The
