IT. Wilcor.--EyTOr to the district court FOR un
Southern district OF Ohto.-This was an action on
prOmssory notes made by the Cambpells 10 the de-
defendant IN error. The declaration was demurned
to on tho ground that it contained no ayerment that
the notes were stamped at their date or at any SUBJ
sequenJ time. The court below overrued the de-
murrer and the case comes nere the plaintiffs in
error arguing that the English precedents IN
such cases are not IN point; for the want
the instrument, but only excludes IL from
being used In evidence until stamped. Our statute
declares the instrument invalid until a stamp Is
affixed, and II the stamp s necessary give validity
TO the instrument 1t Is submitted that the declara-
ton should aver that 1t was stamped. The defend
ant In error contends that the averments the de.
caratOn, that the defendants executed and deliv-
cred TO plaintiff the notes, implies that they were
such notes as are contemplated by the law OF the
land-lega instrumenrs-and II they were not
stamped at the time the declaration was filed they
could have been at any time thereafter provided the
stamps were not omitted for the purpose OF defraud
ing the government. But demurrer Will not reach
the defect therefore, even ir 1t exists. II would in
that case require plea with an averment that the
stamps were frauduently omitted from the notes.
