ley _v._ Donoghue, 116 U.S. 1, 3 (1885). _See also_ Bigelow _v._ Old Dominion Copper Min. & S. Co., 225 U.S. 111 (1912); Green _v._ Van Buskirk, 7 Wall. 139, 140 (1869); Roche _v._ McDonald, 275 U.S. 449 (1928); Ohio _v._ Chattanooga Boiler & Tank Co., 289 U.S. 439 (1933). [10] Sistare _v._ Sistare, 218 U.S. 1 (1910). [11] Michigan Trust Co. _v._ Ferry, 228 U.S. 346 (1913). _See also_ Fall _v._ Eastin, 215 U.S. 1 (1909). [12] Milwaukee County _v._ White (M.E.) Co., 296 U.S. 268, 275-276 (1935). [13] Board of Public Works _v._ Columbia College, 17 Wall. 521 (1873); Robertson _v._ Pickrell, 109 U.S. 608, 610 (1883). [14] Kersh Lake Drainage Dist. _v._ Johnson, 309 U.S. 485 (1940). _See also_ Texas & P.R. Co. _v._ Southern P. Co., 137 U.S. 48 (1890). [15] National Exchange Bank _v._ Wiley, 195 U.S. 257, 265 (1904). _See also_ Grover & B. Sewing-Mach. Co. _v._ Radcliffe, 137 U.S. 287 (1890). [16] Harding _v._ Harding, 198 U.S. 317 (1905). The following cases further illustrate the application of the clause when its protection is sought by a defendant. Such claim must be specific, Wabash R. Co. _v._ Flannigan, 192 U.S. 29, 37 (1904). _See also_ American Exp. Co. _v._ Mullins, 212 U.S. 311 (1909). The burden is upon the party making it to establish the failure of a court to give to decrees of a federal court and the court of another State the due effect to which they are entitled. Commercial Pub. Co. _v._ Beckwith, 188 U.S. 567, 573 (1903). However, by defending on the merits, after pleading and relying upon a foreign judgment, a party does not waive the benefits of an alleged estoppel arising from the foreign judgment. Harding _v._ Harding, 198 U.S. 317, 330 (1905). Nor is a decree of dismissal, not on the merits, a bar to suit in another jurisdiction. Swift _v._ McPherson, 232 U.S. 51 (1914). Nor is an entry of discontinuance. In allowing the plaintiff to show that such entry of discontinuance was not intended by the parties as a release and satisfaction of the cause of action, but was the result of a promissory agreement by the defendant which was never complied with, the Court in the forum State was not refusing full faith and credit to the judgment. Such evidence was properly allowed, not to contradict the legal import of said judgment, but to show the true meaning of the parties to the suit in agreeing upon its discontinuance. Jacobs _v._ Marks, 182 U.S. 583, 593 (1901). [17] Anglo-American Provision Co.
