Opinion

By the Court.

This Rum appears to have been sent to satisfy P’s Debt. If it had been Money, there could have been no doubt but the Defendant would have retained it. And the only difference is that a Commodity was sent which must be converted into Money, before the Sum to be paid to P. could be ascertained, but, as to P’s interest in it, the Case was the same. Therefore judgment, by the whole Court, was given for the Defendant.
