Bill payable in London forty days after date, protested both for not acceptance and not payment, only on the 44th day and no sooner, found not duly negotiated, nor no resource against the indorsers; though the 43d day, which was the last day of grace, was not a post day for Scotland, because there are no days of grace for accepting bills; and found the drawer not bound to prove damage, but that the creditor must prove no damage. Vide No. 32. infra. Vide Cruickshank's Case, No. 49. infra. (See Dict. No. 140. p. 1564.)
