William Winnings v. W. G. Cochran, assignee, etc.
This was a claim against the insolvent, who had been a banker, presented to his assignee in April, 1884, and contested under the statute. It was in the form of a slip or ticket signed by his cashier, dated June 17, 1878, and showed a deposit by appellant of $800; and the defense was payment. Upon the trial, on appeal from the county court, the issue was found for the defendant, a motion for a new trial overruled and judgment entered. The only reason here urged for a reversal was that the verdict was against the evidence; but it was not denied, nor could it be in the face of their record, that there was much to support it. The judgment is therefore affirmed.
Attorney for appellant, Mr. W. II. Shinn;
