80 Mo. App. 526 | Mo. Ct. App. | 1899
This action originated before a justice of the peace. The suit is on a promissory note executed by the defendant Bray as principal and by the defendant Cardwell as surety. Bray made no defense and judgment was taken against him by the justice. Cardwell claimed to be released by reason of an alleged extension of the time for paying the note, and of which he claimed to have no knowledge. He made good the defense both before the justice and in the circuit court. The plaintiff has brought the case here by appeal.'
With the concurrence of the other judges the judgment of the circuit court will be affirmed. It is so ordered.
