Syllabus

<p>Syllabus.</p> <p>1. An entry by a bank clerk to a depositor’s credit in the latter’s pass book is not conclusive, but simply presumptive evidence of its correctness and may be contro 'verted.</p> <p>2. The testimony of a litigant who affirms* a positive knowledge upon all facts in his favor, but professes ignorance or forgetfulness upon all other facts, equally material and concerning which he must in the ordinary course of events have possessed and retained a like knowledge and recollection, is entitled to slight credence.</p>
