In an action for the price of a parcel of sheep, sold and delivered to the defender's predecessor, about forty years preceding the date of the action; the question occurred, whether this action was subject to the triennial prescription of merchants accompts, or to the quinquennial prescription of bargains concerning moveables. It was found to fall under the quinquennial, and not the triennial prescription. (See Appendix.)
