Syllabus

<p>If it appear, in an action against a railroad company for arrears of pay for services, that judgment was rendered against the company as garnishee of the plaintiff in proceedings in attachment, that the company gave its check to the justice who entered the judgment, and that the check was indorsed and passed to the attaching creditor, a presumption arises that the check was accepted as payment of the judgment, and was itself paid. In such case, it is error to submit the question of the payment of the judgment to the jury.</p>
