Syllabus

<p>Instructions — Clearness—Reasonably Definite. Error cannot be predicated upon instructions in that they were not simple, direct and clear upon the principal issue, where there were various issues requiring instruction, and they were reasonably clear and definite and not misleading to the ordinary mind, although not the most simple and direct that might be given.</p> <p>Banes — Power to Sell Note — Authority of Cashier — Evidence —Ground of Objection — Materiality. It is not prejudicial error to sustain an objection to oral evidence of the authority of a bank cashier to sell a note of the bank, as not being the best evidence, as it is immaterial in any event, the bank having authority to sell a negotiable note regardless of such authority.</p>
