Friday. the Cottle of King'ssleabili Apse jorfri
meat in the case of, M4CLBAII and ikfoook. which
is of the highest importance to the regulations of
the commercial world : the circumstances of the
ease were, that a bill for lOW. had been discounted
in the 'Mink of Ireland, which became due and
payable upon the Igth of Februaiy, which being
dishonoured, was protested upon that day.; but the
following day (the £oth) being a General Fast, by
order of the King's Proclamation, no notice was
given by the holder, until, by the post of the 21st,
to the Defendant in this canse, who was only an in-
dosser, and who resided in the North of Ireland,
but who contended, inasmuch as he had not been
served with notice by the next post, after the bill
heal; dishonoured, lie was not liable. Arguments
bit both sides were urged by Counsel with much in-
genuity, as to the General Fast being of sufficient
importance to supersede the strinness of the Ad of
Parliament, and the contrary ; but the Court were
pleased to give judgment in favour of the Defendant
apinst the Plaintiff, which was avowedly in this
cause the Bank of Ireland.
