Surgadass Vs. Wahidunnessa and ors.

Court : Kolkata

Reported in : (1880)ILR5Cal39

garth, c.j.1. we think that there is no ground for this appeal, and that the court below has come to a just conclusion. the first and main point raised by the appellant is, that there is no sufficient evidence to make mir haider ali, the ancestor of the defendants, liable upon the bond in question. now the first witness called by the plaintiff was a mookhtar in the employ of mir hadi hossein, the uncle of mir haider, who lived close by him, and was in the habit of transacting his business, and borrowing money for him by means of bonds. this witness says, that he received from mir haider's karpurdaz, ali akbar, a blank paper signed and sealed by mir haider, and stamped with a bond stamp sufficient to cover rs. 16,000; and that, by the instructions of mir hadi hossein, he drew up the bond in question upon this paper for rs. 16,000, having no doubts of the correctness of the transaction. it then appears clear from the evidence, that rs. 16,000 was duly paid by the plaintiffs to ali akbar, mir haider's karpurdaz, upon the faith and security of this bond. it is now argued by the appellants, that there is no sufficient evidence that mir haider did really seal and sign the stamped paper. but the first witness had drawn up several deeds previously, which were sealed and signed by mir haider. he speaks positively to the genuineness of the seal and signature upon this particular bond, and not a question is put to him upon this point on cross-examination. moreover, it is proved that the .....
