Found that an answered letter of credit, with the possessor's receipt thereon, did bear annualrent, like a bill of exchange, from the time of the advancing of the money, though Major Grant, the receiver thereof, was dead, and the writer of the letter of credit had no prospect of relief; and that the letter of credit did not prescribe in twenty years, as a holograph missive letter, the same being of a date anterior to the act 1679, and not so many as twenty years elapsed since the act, (See Prescription Vicennial.)
