Pincite

Opinion

Waties, J.,

declared the opinion of the whole court, 16th January, that it would be incompatible with the wise provisions of the act of distributions of 1789, to give to the discount law the construction contended for by the defendants, and would operate injustice, and encourage peculation. That it could never have been intended by the makers of the discount law to extend its operation to such a case.

Motion granted.
