Corning v. Bridgewater Gas Co.
Appellate Court of Illinois · Decided February 21, 1902 · Waterman
100 Ill. App. 221; 1902 Ill. App. LEXIS 695

Corning v. Bridgewater Gas Co.

Opinion of the Court

Mr. Justice Waterman

delivered the opinion of the court.

Plaintiff in error insists that the collateral stock should, in accordance with his alleged agreement with Green, have been offered for sale and the proceeds applied on the note. The stock was canceled by agreement of plaintiff in error, and thereafter there was no collateral stock to be sold or offered for sale.

Moreover, the alleged agreement was not with the Bridge-water G-as Company, nor did it, so far as appears, have notice thereof; while presumably it took the note bona fide, for value, and before it became due.

The judgment of the Superior Court is affirmed.
