the books of the bank show this to be
true. He claims that he received the
note which be paid off and burned it.
From his contention in the matter and
from the fact that there is still another
note in existence purporting to be his
note, it would seem that there have been
two notes in existence, one genuine, the
other forged, both in favor of the Platte
Valley State bank and against Mr. Allen.
The question then arises, which note did
he pay off, the genuine or the forged
note. It proved too hard a question for
the jury to decide whether tke note sued
on was the genuine or the forged instru
ment. And so they agreed to disagree
at a ratio of 3 to 9 in Javor of tke de-fsadaat."
