Hazelrigg v. Prater
Hazelrigg v. Prater
5 Ky. Op. 482; 1871 Ky. LEXIS 464
Hazelrigg v. Prater
Opinion of the Court
Opinion by
The evidence sustains the conclusion that the plaintiff’s intestate, Thomas H. Hazelrigg, while residing at Whitville, Virginia, in 1862, received of William Lykins, through George Cox in Virginia, $494, or about that sum, in confederate currency, as a payment on the notes sued on in this action.
This payment, so made and accepted, within the military lines of the confederate states, was a valid payment of the promised sum so received, according to reported decisions of this court; and the judgment rendered for the plaintiff seems to embrace the full amount of the balance due upon the notes.
Wherefore the judgment is affirmed.
