<p>CORPORATIONS — DUPLICATE STOCK CERTIFICATE —INDEMNITY.</p> <p>Inasmuch as title to a certificate of stock passes by mere delivery, without the necessity of notice to the corporation, and inasmuch as a corporation issuing a duplicate certificate while the original is outstanding might be responsible on both certificates, to bona fide holders, the court should not order the issuance of such duplicate, in place of a lost or mislaid original, without bond being given to hold the corporation harmless against the reappearance of the original in the hands of a bona fide holder, unless, upon the facts, it be reasonably certain that there is no danger of such reappearance.</p> <p>(Syllabus by the Court.)</p>
