Syllabus

<p>Common carriers — Delivery c. o. d. — Failure to collect charges • — Evidence.</p> <p>In an action to recover the price of goods given to the defendant, a common carrier, to he delivered c. o. d., which were delivered without first obtaining the purchase price, it is not error to admit in evidence a receipt for the goods signed by the defendants’ driver, to whom the consignment was delivered.</p> <p>A receipt is not a contract and it was, therefore, not necessary to include it in the statement of claim.</p>
