delivered the opinion of the Court.— The first question is, whether a due bill not payable to order or bearer is assignable. We have no doubt that a due bill is embraced by the words of the statute, “ bonds, bills, and promissory notes.” Geyer’s Digest, 66. The second question is, whether a due bill can be assigned by an agent. Of this we have no doubt, and consider it too clear to require reasoning.1 Kyd on Bills, 33; Chitty on Bills, 198; Pothier on Obligations, 74, 448.
Eskridge, J., concurred.
Judgment affirmed.
