Supreme Judicial Court of Maine July 1, 1850 (Ammidown v. Woodman)

Howard, J., orally.

1. Was the interest of Mr. Cutler, the witness, discharged ? We think one, though a stranger to the case, may volunteer to make the requisite deposit. He could not withdraw it. There was sufficient consideration for withholding it from him; for another person’s rights had been affected by it.

The clerk was the rightful depositary.
