Σελίδα 140 - Upon a review of the cases which are reported, this court is of opinion that a letter written within a reasonable time before or after the date of a bill of exchange, describing it in terms not to be mistaken, and promising to accept it, is, if shown to the person who afterwards takes the bill on the credit of the letter, a virtual acceptance binding the person who makes the promise.

Σελίδα 37 - A bond creditor shall, in this court, have the benefit of all counter-bonds or collateral security given by the principal to the surety ; as if A owes B money, and he and C are bound for it, A gives C a mortgage or bond to indemnify him, B shall have the benefit of it to recover his debt.
Σελίδα 510 - Jurisprudence.) and sustained by the adjudged cases, is, that joint trustees are responsible only for their own acts, and not for the acts of each other, unless they have made some agreement by which they have expressly agreed to be bound for each other ; or have, by their voluntary co-operation or connivance, enabled the other to accomplish an object in violation of the trust.
Σελίδα 37 - As a general rule, where a surety, or a person standing in the situation of a surety, for the payment of a debt, receives a security for his indemnity, and to discharge such indebtedness, the principal creditor is in equity entitled to the full benefit of that security, and it makes no difference that such principal creditor did not act upon the credit of such security in the first instance, or even know of its existence.
