Opinion of the Court
In general indorsements made upon promissory notes are presumed to have been made at the time such indorsements bear date. Horton v. Bayne, 52 Mo. 531. If, however, there be any thing in the indorsement indicative of alteration, the usual presumption ceases, and it then devolves upon the holder of the paper to explain that which is apparently suspicious. Mathews v. Coalter,
Arrirmed.
