The acts of one partner bind all the rest. A contract made with a minor is void in law. The law compels no one to do impossibilities. Notes bear interest only when so stated on them. Signatures made with a lead pencil are good in law. Contracts that are made on Sunday cannot be enforced. Principals can be held responsible for the acts of their agents. No consideration is sufficient in law if it be illegal in its nature. If the time of payment of a note is not inserted it is held payable on demand. A note obtained by fraud, or from an intoxi- cated person, cannot be collected. Each individual in a partnership is responsi- ble for the whole amount of the debts of the firm, except in cases of special partnership. If a note is lost or stolen it does not release the maker; if the consideration for which it was given and the amount can be proven, he must pay it. Value received is usually written in a note, and it should be, but is not necessary. If it is not written it is presumed by the law, or may be supplied by proof. t i 4.
