usual course of business
Business according to the usages and customs of commercial transactions. 11 Am J2d B & N § 411. As applied to the indorsement of commercial paper, the term may be said generally to include the concurrent indorsement and delivery for value under such circumstances that a business man of ordinary intelligence and capacity would give his money, goods, or credit for it when offered for the purpose for which this was transferred; and it would not be in due course if such a person would at once suspect the integrity of the paper itself, or the credit and standing of the party offering it. Matlock v Scheuerman, 51 Or 49, 93 P 823.
