Execution of a promissory note proved by admitted signatures, a handwritten reply, and attesting evidence attracts the presumption of consideration, and a blank signed note may operate as an inchoate instrument unless rebutted. The forgery plea failed because no expert or other rebuttal evidence was produced, and the admission in the pre-suit reply was treated as the best evidence of liability. Non-disclosure of the transaction in income tax returns, especially when not specifically pleaded, does not by itself make the debt unenforceable between the parties or defeat recovery on the proved note.
