Head Matter:
[93] HALSEY v. DEHART, ASSIGNEE.
A note without the words “order” or “assigns,” is nevertheless assignable.
Certiorari to Justice Ballard
Dehart had brought an action against Halsey, as assignee of Matthias Dehart, of a note for £10. The note was payable to Matthias Dehart, without the words “ order ” or “ assigns.” Halsey had insisted before the justice that the note was not assignable, but he gave judgment for the plaintiff, the assignee.

Opinion:
Per Cur.
Such a note is assignable.
Affirm the judgment.
