New York Supreme Court October 15, 1822 (Marvin v. M'Cullum)

Platt, J.

delivered the opinion of the Court.

With deference, it seems to me, the Judge was mistaken in excluding the evidence offered by the defendants. The reason for rejecting that evidence, may be collected from the charge to the jury, to wit: That “ the note was not usurious in its inception, but was given for the purpose of being passed to Jlverill, for its full value.
