On the 29th Jan. Mr. Justice Washington delivered
the opinion of the Supreme Court in Williams VS.
he Bank Of the United States. 1t was an action by
the Bank brought against Williams, indorser upon
a negotiable note. The only question was whether
there was due notice to the indorser 1t appeared
that the ndorser lived in the town in which the Bank
was situate and when the note became due and was
dshonored, Notary went to the house of the ndors
er to give him notice, found it shut up, and upon in
qury of neighbor learned that the indorser and his
! family out of town visit. The Notary then
left written notice at neighbours house. requesting
it to be delivered to the ndorser upon his return
The Court held that where the house of the ndorser
is shut up, and person is there to receive notice. it
is not necessary for the Notary to give notice, or
leave any written notice any where else for the indor-
SER The judgment of the Court below, in favor Of
the Bank, was therefore affirmed.
