Snodgrass v. Kirtly
Snodgrass v. Kirtly
2 Ky. Op. 563; 1868 Ky. LEXIS 503
Snodgrass v. Kirtly
Opinion of the Court
Opinion op the Court by
There is no allegation in the petition that the letter addressed by Kirtly and Owens to appellant introducing Lewis to him as a “clever gentleman” was written with any fraudulent intent on their part, or that they knew Lewis to be of a character different from that which they represented.
Nor is it alleged that appellant held their letter' as a guaranty for the debt contracted by Lewis with him, and had notified them of the fact. The petition was therefore insufficient to show a cause of action against appellees in either aspect. Wherefore the demurrer was properly sustained, and the judgment is affirmed.
