California Supreme Court September 12, 1892, No. 14,884 (Bean v. Proseus)

PATERSON, J.

In January, 1885, the appellant held a note against his brother, Joel Bean, for the sum of $2,500. The circumstances under which the note was given are fully set forth in Bell v. Bean, 75 Cal. 86, 16 Pac. 521, where it was held that the note was without consideration.
