Supreme Judicial Court of Maine July 1, 1867 (Lee v. Starbird)

Appleton, C. J.

This is an action on a promissory note, dated Feb. 6, 1861, for one hundred dollars on demand, and interest at nine per cent. It was admitted that the words " at nine per cent.” on said note, were written thereon by the plaintiff after the execution of the note by the defendants, and without their consent.
