Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Corporations — Authority of Secretary to Make Contracts. A secretary of a corporation cannot ordinarily, without special authority, make contracts which will bind the company.</p> <p>2. Judgments — Presumption on Review. Where a district court, in a trial without a jury, enters a general judgment, and the record in the case presents two theories upon which the court might have based its conclusions, one proper and the other erroneous, but does not show which theory was followed, this court will presume that the judgment was entered upon the theory which makes it valid.</p>
