Found that a debtor granting assignation to his creditor, and causing intimate the same in the creditor's absence, but retaining the assignation and
instrument of intimation in his own possession, is not denuded till the assignation be delivered to the creditor, or some person for his behoof; but this is not without some scruple; seeing the notary's having the assignation in his hand, and intimating in the creditor's name, may be construed a delivery to the notary for the creditor.
