Opinion

majority opinion

Per Curiam.

As the endorsement of Amsbaugh’s name is without date, the presumption is that it was made at the date of the note, and that the whole was one transaction. He is consequently liable as an original promissor, and not as a guarantor. The consideration of the note was a consideration for his promise, which entitled the plaintiffs to recover. Judgment affirmed.
