In the action pursued by the executors of Combrie against Thomas Rennie, the exception upon a discharge, given within a few days after the date of his bond, suppose before the day of payment, pecunia jam representata, suppose not the whole; was found relevant, albeit the said discharge did not say in satisfaction of the said bond: except the pursuer would reply that the defender was debitor aliunde: et debitori licet solutum imputare in duriorem sortem; as rather to pay a bond bearing annualrent than one without the same or account; but here payment was advanced before the day. The Lords would have had the discharge produced; but the man that had it was said to be out of the country; and so a day was assigned, reserving all contra producenda.
