Wood having given a letter of credit desiring
to furnish Brown with coals upon his bill on Petrie, and promising to see the bill honoured, the bill was payable at 40 days date at a house in Edinburgh. The bill was not protested till the term of payment, when it was protested for non-acceptance and not payment; which the Lords found sufficient, the bill being payable not at days sight but at a certain day. The Lords also found that notification to the giver of the letter of credit of the dishonour of the bill is necessary in the same manner as to the drawer of a bill; but the creditor in England having deponed, that he sent such a notification by letter and showing a notandum in his copy-book of letters containing that notandum, but no full copy, the Lords found the proof sufficient, and the defender liable.
