    February 3, 1913:
   Per Curiam,

This action was on a promissory note given in payment for the stock of a corporation. The defendant’s contention at the trial, that there could be.no recovery on the note because it was negotiated after maturity calls for no discussion. Every defense available against the payee was admitted and submitted to the jury with full and accurate instructions.

The judgment is affirmed.
