Syllabus

<p>1. A township order is not such a negotiable instrument that a holder of it may sue thereon in his own name: Nor will such an instrument bear interest, although under certain circumstances interest may be recovered in a suit on the original indebtedness.</p> <p>2. Supervisors have no power to take up a township order, issued by the auditors, and in lieu thereof issue another by themselves which will be binding upon the township, and such substituted order will not affect the bar of the statute of limitations upon the original.</p>
