The Lords found, that a merchant being in use to furnish diverse years, that a current account did not prescribe; though some were of opinion, that the act of Parliament bearing no distinction, the acticles of account ought to prescribe from their respective dates; seeing otherwise the act of Parliament may be eluded, both in the case of counts and other cases which prescribe by the act.
