In re A.B‪.‬

Resolved, That the Speaker of the House of Representatives be and hereby is directed to obtain from the honorable Justices of the Supreme Court their opinion upon the following question:
In 1918 the defendant made a loan on a promissory note indorsed by two signers for the makers accommodation. Over their signatures were written the words waiving demand and notice." The plaintiffs deceased husband was the second signer. He died before the note became due. It was not paid at its maturity, and the executrix was not served with demand and notice. Thereafter, and within one year from her appointment as executrix, the plaintiff gave the defendant her personal agreement to indemnify it against loss and guaranteeing payment of the note in consideration of its grant of an extension of the note. At a later time, the note remaining unpaid, she gave her personal note for its amount with interest added, and at various times furnished security for it. This note she has party paid.
