Huffman v. Iams
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania

Glare, Gordon, Green, Paxson, Sterrett
Huffman v. Iams
Opinion of the Court
This case is ruled by Darlington’s Appeal, 86 Pa. 518, 27 Am. Pep. 726.
' There was undoubtedly such a confidential relation between James Huffman and his father, John Huffman, not only as ■father and son, but as one of the assignees of his father, as threw upon him the burden of proof of showing the consideration of the notes in question; and the court was right in so instructing the jury. Nor ean we see in the offers of evidence .anything which tended to show such consideration; hence, the court did well in rejecting them. It follows that the third point of the defendants was properly affirmed.
The judgment is affirmed.
