case it hard money alone and that alone would
answer his purpose, an Annuity note for the sum
would not be an eligible subsit substitute: but
since in point of fact those to whose circumstances

that can lead a man to by whom the true state
of the case is understood, to hesitate about receiving

cash. The principal oneand with interest is better
than principal without interest is a proposition
of the truth of what no one who understands
the meaning of the terms, can entertain
so much as a momentary doubt. If a doubt would
arise whether a secondcustomer could be found in
in a situation to wait for the principal of the Note
till a third person could be found to give it him in
that case the Note could not by every person be receivedin the instance of every body

made for illustration sake is contrary to fact, seems evident enough as as can be bidIf
