Syllabus

<p>In a suit upon a note it is not necessary to state where either the note or the indorsement was made.</p> <p>A promissory note is a written engagement by one person to pay another person therein named, absolutely and unconditionally, a certain sum of money, at a time therein specified. (Paschal’s Dig., Art. 220, Note 283.) Where the maker resided beyond the limits of the state, and the indprser was sued at the first term of the court after the note matured, he was held to be liable; and also that'it was unnecessary to decide upon the effect of the special indorsement or the necessity of a government stamp thereto.</p>
