Edgell v. Coates ( 1866 )

The Court, Gilpin, C. J., charged the jury,

that the plaintiff Coates, must prove to their satisfaction that the due bill was made and delivered by the deceased to him, and, as the statute of limitations had been pleaded, that the suit below had been commenced within six years thereafter, or he could not recover, since no other demand for the payment of it, had been proved, than the institution of the suit, which was equivalent to it.
