=, BntIer dra9S = draft from Navg V@rL on
Williams & Son. October 3. 1870. for $500,
which was honored. A few daYs subse-
sluent thereto they drew draft Tor $780,
pHvabe to the order Of themselves" and
sold She same to Henry Talmadge, of New
York. by whom it was sent to New Orleans
Gor collection; but Williams & Son refused
20 honor 1t. on the ground that beng drawn
20 the order of the drawers, it did not come
~ithln the terms OF the letter of credit,
which provided that ''the drafts should be
might be indebted to or wished to purchase
goods from" Talmadge thereupon brought
Euit.
In passing on the case the court held that
although according to the old English law,
she slightest departure from the tenor of u
letter OF credit was sufficient to invalidate
Che document, yet 1t was quite evident that
the necessities Of commerce had materially
modified that law, and 1t was now well
settled fact, that any departure from the
express terms Of a letter OF credit, pro
Eided it do not involve increased obllga-
&Ions to the person who issues 1t, does not
impair his responsibility.
