From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 [gcide]:

  Endorse \En*dorse"\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Endorsed}; p. pr. &
     vb. n. {Endorsing}.] [Formerly endosse, fr. F. endosser to
     put on the back, to endorse; pref. en- (L. in) + dos back, L.
     dorsum. See {Dorsal}, and cf. {Indorse}.]
     Same as {Indorse}.
     [1913 Webster]


  
     Note: Both endorse and indorse are used by good writers; but
           the tendency is to the more general use of indorse and
           its derivatives indorsee, indorser, and indorsement.
