laion with forged signatures Notes Of $40
and $40 denominations. and numbered 100
TO 7GG; Department numbers, 45,l95 to

tional bank, very loosely cared for, were
stolen and put in circulation, with the name
OF the president forged thereto. When
they were presented at the bank they were
thrown out, and the holders took the bank
into court to compel redemption. The de-
ci>ion was as above Indicated Washington
