MUST PAY NOTEI
TO COVER THEFT
Joseph Nelson Former Cashier-of Utah National Loses
His Suit
SUPREME COURT RULING
Justices McCarty and Prick HoldThere Was Consideration in Ex ¬
ecution of Paper
Joseph Nelson who was cashier ofthe Utah National bank at the timewhen 106360 was stolen from the re¬
serve chest of the bank In the winter-of 19071908 must pay the note of13250 which he executed after the
theft was discovered and which with60000 cash contributed by President
W S McCornick for the i same pur ¬
pose was delivered to the bank in or-der
¬
to protect the institutionThis in effect is the decision hand ¬
ed down by the supreme court yester-day
¬
in an opinion written by JusticeAV M McCarty Justice J E Frick-in a separate opinion concurs andChief Justice D K Stratip dissents
As set forth in Justice McCartysopinion confirming the decision of thelower court the substance of the caseis as follows
January 12 1908 it was discoveredthat 106250 was missing from thevaults of the bank W S McCornickpresident of the bank owned 1000shares of the banks stock and JosephNelson owned fifty shares Soon afterthe loss was discovered Nelson andMcCornick held conferences over thematter in which they agreed that un-less
¬
they took immediate and secretaction to replace the money so as tobring the reserve fund up to the legalrequirement before the books could-be examined by the national bank ex¬
aminer the comptroller of currencywould close the bank and if the publicbecame aware of the condition itwould result in a run on the bankThey decided that it must be kept se-cret
¬
from the directors and stockhold-ers
¬
as wellXclson Gives Note
Mr McCornick insisted that Nelsonshould put up 13250 and he agreed-to put up 50000 to make up the de-ficiency
¬
in the reserve fund and thesesums with 43000 from the surplusfund of the bank would make up the10650 T R Cutler vice president-
of the bank was called in as arbi-trator
¬
and he decided that in caSf thethief was discovered and the moneyrestored to the bank Nelson shouldhave onehalf of his 13250 betoreMcCornick received any portion of his
50000 The note irivan ny Nelsonprovided for payment In thirty dayswith interest at 6 per cent and 10 percent additional in case the note wascollected through an attorney
Nelson rofused to pay the noteclaiming that he had received no con-sideration
¬
or service of value for themoney Suit was brought by the UtahNational bank for collection and thetrial in the district court before JudgeGeorge G Armstrong resulted in a i
verdict for the bank Nelson there-upon
¬
appealed to the supreme courtConsideration is Shown
Justice McCarty holds that inas¬
much as the payment of 5000 byMcCornick and 13250 by Nelsonsaved the bank from probable ruinand added to the value of the stockheld by both the president and cashierof the bank this constituted a consid-eration
¬
for the note given by Nelson-He also expresses the opinion that
the note Itself is prIma facie evidencethat it has been given for a consider-ation
¬
Justice McCarty also holds that the632KO advanced by McCornick and
Nelson to cover up the theft was ad-vanced
¬
with the understanding that itshould be repaid tit them by the bankonly In case the stolen money was re-
covered¬
or the stockholders volun-tarily
¬
decided to reimburse them Con-cerning
¬
Nelsons liability for the theftJustice McCarty says that the condi ¬
tion on which Nelson executed thenote was that of a compromise for hisliability to the bank for at least a partqf the money stolen
Part of AssetsJustice Frick in concurring says
the amounts agreed to be paid by Mc ¬
Cornick and Nelson were to be a partof the banks assets and by the pay-ment
¬
the banks assets were madegood and they accomplished whatthey intended to accomplish in pre-venting
¬
the failure of the bankChief Justice Straup in dissenting
says Appellant urges that the ulti ¬
mate fact of consideration was notfound and that the evidence is insuf ¬
ficient to show a good or valuableconsideration I think the appellantis entitled to prevail in both conten ¬
tions calling attention to the factthat the very thing on which McCor ¬
nick and Nelson disagreed was themanner in which their paymentswould be refunded either when the106250 was recovered or the stock ¬
holders of the bank were induced tomake the 63250 good He said thepayments were made simply to tidethe bank over until the money was re-
covered¬
or the stockholders could becalled together to refund the 63250
All the circumstances taken together-are inconsistent with and exclude theidea of a gift and at least show animplied promise of payment saysthe chief justice
