Michenor v. Kinney

Michenor v. Kinney
Ohio Supreme Court · Decided October 15, 1833
1 Wright 459; 1 Ohio Ch. 459

Michenor v. Kinney

Opinion of the Court

BY THE COURT.

The case of Howe v. Dawson, Tappan, 169, decides the precise point before us; and it is said, the same point has been repeatedly decided by this court, though we have no reported case. Suppose there was a seal of wax instead of a scrawl, would not the instrument be sealed ? Our law puts the scrawl upon the same footing as the wax seal.

Judgment for the plaintiff.

[Note with scrawl is sealed note, followed; Osborn v. Kistler, 35 O. S. 90, 101.]
