Each of these drafts; upon its face, purports to be issued by the New England agency of the Pennsylvania Fire Insurance Company, and shows that Foster & Cole are the general agents of that corporation for the New England States, as well as that the draft is drawn in payment of a claim against the corporation. It thus appears that Foster & Cole, in drawing it, [*191] acted only as agents of the corporation, as clearly as if they had repeated words expressing their agency after their signature; and they cannot be held personally liable as drawers thereof.

Judgment for the defendants.
