A-1 on 6-11-1945 promising to pay ₹ 300/- with interest at the rate of 12 per cent per annum. On 4-11-1948 they made an endorsement Ex. A1(a) on Ex. A.1 to the effect that a promissory note is executed for the sum of principal and interest for ₹ 410-4-0 due under the promissory note. The renewed promissory note, Ex. A-2 again bore the endorsement, Ex. A.2(a) by the promisors acknowledging the payment of ₹ 4/- on 2-11-1951 under Ex. A.2. 3.
