BRIGHT, Circuit Judge.
The First National Bank and Trust Company of Bismarck (the "Bank") brought this action to collect on a $1,601,972.47 promissory note, on which Donald P. Peterson had paid only $86,901.52 before defaulting. Peterson contended that the Bank had fraudulently induced him to give the promissory note, and that therefore he was not liable on it. Peterson counterclaimed to recover the $86,901.52 he had paid before default.
