Opinion

Per Curiam

This is one of those cases about which nothing is to be said, but to pronounce the law. Without then determining what may be the liability of the prothonotary’s sureties — a point not before us — it is sufficient for the occasion to say, that the officer was not the agent either of the party or the law, and that the receipt by him involved the debtor in a mispayment, which consequently cannot be set up as a discharge of the debt.

Judgment affirmed.
