Ellis v. Murray & Word

Blandford, Justice. Plaintiff in error was sued for the price of a coffin sold to her, and the testimony showed the coffin was sold to plaintiff in error, although it was for the use of another person. [544] The undertaking on her part was original, and not as security of another, or to answer the debt, default or miscarriage of another person ; the judgment was properly rendered against her, and she was not protected under the statute of frauds. Judgment affirmed.
