Found that an accompt for a person's funeral, mournings of the family, and their maintenance to the next term after his death, taken off by a negotiorum gestor, who was neither heir nor executor, did not continue the currency of a former accompt due by the defunct to the same merchant to interrupt prescription thereof quoad modum probandi.
Fount. Forbes.
