Court of Appeals of Kentucky February 6, 1872 (Soward v. Johnson)

Opinion of the Court by

Judge Lindsay :

The answer of Soward -presented- no sufficient reason for making Wings Johnson a party to this action.

If in point of fact he was the beneficial owner of the note sued on, proof that such was the case would have authorized the note held by Soward against him- to be set off against it, even in the hands of the appellees.
