Syllabus

<p>Promissory notes — Protest—Notary public’s certificate of protest— Memorandum as to notice sent to indorsers.</p> <p>The Act of December 14, 1854, sec. 2, P. L. (1855) 724, making the certificate of a notary public proof of the facts therein stated, does not provide that the notices to indorsers of promissory notes must be sent before the certificate of protest is signed and sealed, and that if they are not so sent it shall not be proof. In the eyes of the law, the protest, including the presentation, the making out of the certificate and the giving of notices to the indorsers is one act, and the order of time in which the constituent parts of that act are performed is immaterial.</p>
