Supreme Court of Pennsylvania January 2, 1841 (Horback v. Reeside)

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Sergeant, J.

The former suit of Knox & Boggs v. Reeside, (2 Whart. 233,) failed because the bill being drawn on the government, *52was not a negotiable instrument. This suit is free from that objection, being indebitatus assumpsit for money paid to the defendant’s use by the plaintiff.
