Jenkins v. Anderson ex rel. Daugherty
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
Jenkins v. Anderson ex rel. Daugherty, 8 Sadler 363 (Pa. 1887)
11 A. 558; 1887 Pa. LEXIS 751
Gordon, Green, Paxson, Williams
Jenkins v. Anderson ex rel. Daugherty
Opinion of the Court
The principal question in this case was whether the presumption of payment was a defense to the plaintiff’s claim upon the scire facias to revive. This question was left to the jury under proper instructions. The sum of $69.15 was paid on account of the articles of agreement and, as an acknowledgment of an indebtedness then existing, was applicable to the entire debt. We-are unable to see any error in the admission of the deposition, of J. D. McClaran, or in the rulings of the learned judge upon the question of set-off.
Judgment affirmed.
