of any bills which he might make under
this letter OF credit in Baltimore, not
exceeding $780," is guaranty, and
not mere promise to A, that they wonld
thereafter guarantee any such bills.
No special words or form necessary to
constitute guaranty. Ii Cno parties
clearly manifest the intention to guar
antee, it is enough.
Under the fourth section of the Sta
tute of Frauds, guaranty need not
show on its face oil the contracting par
ties, or be addressed to particular per
son. It may be general, and one who
trusts in consequence of the promise
raised by it has q right Of action.
Notice OF acceptance Of guaranty
for future credit must be given to the
guarantor before he can be bound by It.
No precise rule can be prescribed as
to the time when such notice must be
given. A time reasonable for the pur
pose which notice is intended to accom-
| plish is all that is required.
