Bill drawn by one drover on another, payable at London 18th May 1745, value received, and indorsed through several hands, was protested for not acceptance and not payment only 21st May, and thereon recourse pursued; and Lord Kilkerran sustained the defence, not duly negotiated, because there are no days of grace for acceptance; but on a reclaiming bill we referred the case to some merchants both here and at London for their opinion, and on their report we found there lay recourse.
