Morrison v. Keese

Opinion of the Court

Roberts, J.

—The petition, in the introductory part of it, alleges an indebtedness of $1,030 20, evidenced by a note, which is set out in substance, and which shows that the indebtedness, including the interest on the note, was a greater amount. The judgment was rendered for $1,064 54, principal and interest on the note. This was correct, as the note which was set out corrected the introductory allegation.

Judgment affirmed with damages.
