Head Matter:
Henry Rourk v. Pegram & Bryan.
from the Fifth District Court of New Orleans, Augustin, J.
Durant & Hornor, for plaintiff.
B. & H. Marr, for defendants and appellants.

Opinion:
Slidell, C. J.
The defendants bought for remittance, without instructions, a bill at forty-five days after date, on drawees, at a place distant from their customer's residence, and drawn by a house of inferior and doubtful credit, from whom defendants occasionally obtained accommodation. We think the loss was properly thrown on the defendants.
Judgment affirmed with costs.
