Syllabus

<p>Appeal — Practice — Record — Waiver — Stipulation. — The record provided by statute for reviewing evidence is a bill of exceptions, or statement. If the parties wish to waive such record, and substitute a stipulation for it, the intention so to do must appear with reasonable certainty. A stipulation that copies of certain documents printed in the transcript are “correct,” and that the documents were introduced in evidence at the trial, does not dispense with the statutory record.</p> <p>Corporation — Agency — President — Promissory Note. — The president of a corporation engaged in the business of buying and selling machinery, who is authorized by the by-laws to transact its ordinary business without consulting the hoard of directors, has authority to buy machinery for the corporation, and give its promissory note therefor, without a resolution of the board.</p>
