Syllabus

<p>Evidence — False representations — Sale.</p> <p>On the trial of an issue to determine the ownership of goods, where it appears that the goods had been deposited'with defendant by a vendee of the plaintiff as collateral security for an antecedent debt, and plaintiff claims that he made the sale in consequence of false representations made by the vendee, the testimony of a confidential clerk of the vendee as to the true state of his employer’s business is admissible to establish the falsity of the representations upon which the sale was made.</p>
