Supreme Court of the United States May 18, 1872 (Insurance Companies v. Weides)

Mr. Justice STRONG

delivered the opinion of the court.

It is contended in the first place, that there was error in' the court’s receiving the entry of the footings upon the flyleaf of the new ledger. It will be observed that the footings upon the fly-leaf of the ledger were not offered or received as independent evidence.
