The State\u2019s witness, Gutterman, testified that defendant purchased furniture, received a bill of lading therefor, and gave a check for $110.00 in payment. The check was returned by the bank on which it was drawn with the notation, \u201cNo account.\u201d The defendant testified in his own behalf and, on cross-examination, stated: \u201cI signed that check. I knew at the time I signed it I didn\u2019t have any money in the bank and I told him (the prosecuting witness) so.\u201d He claimed that his partner promised to make a deposit in the bank. This was not done.\nThe evidence was sufficient to go to the jury and to sustain its verdict of guilty and the judgment thereon.\nNo error.",
