Description
CROSBY, J. This is an action of contract by the holder against the maker of four promissory notes, all dated July 28, 1925, and payable to the order of F. G. Potter. The writ is dated August 24, 1927. The jury found for the defendant, and the case is before this court on the plaintiffs exceptions to the refusal of the trial Judge to grant a motion for a directed verdict, and to his refusal to give certain requests for rulings. The original answer, which contained a general denial and a denial of the defendants signature, pleaded fraud and rescission. At the beginning of the trial proof of the genuineness of the signatures was waived by the defendant, and counsel for the plaintiff agreed that the defendant might withdraw that portion of the answer relating to rescission; it was further agreed that the defence would be based on the ground of false representations. On the day preceding the close of the trial, in accordance with the agreement, an amendment to the original answer was filed, and allowed, which omitted that part of the answer pleading rescission.
