Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Reports of Cases Adjudged in the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, Vol. 8: Containing the Cases Decided in Part of September Term, and in December Term 1844, and in March Term 1845 "H. H. Budd, Esq., please pay over to William Wheelen or order the amount of the note on John Hawkins when collected, as the note is to be applied to the payment on a note in the Warren Bank; or if said Drums and Collins should pay off said note, this order to be lifted. The following is endorsed on the back of the above writing: "Accept the within order, and agree to pay over the same when collected, reserving my fees and percentage. The court below (Thompson, President) rendered a judgment for the defendant. Stephenson, for plaintiff in error. Pearson, for defendant in error. Per Curiam. - An equitable assignment is an agreement in the nature of a declaration of trust, which a chancellor, though deaf to the prayer of a volunteer, never hesitates to execute when it has been made on valuable, or even good consideration. Could there be a more explicit declaration than the order before us? Drum and Collins draw on their lawyer for the proceeds of an action against Hawkins, which they declare in the order to have been appropriated to payment of their note in the Warren Bank, on which Wheelen, the payee, was one of their sureties. If this appropriation was a condition of the contract of suretyship, it rested on a valuable consideration; if it was not, it rested on a good one, which is equally available. Drum and Collins were bound to secure Wheelen by putting funds into his hands to take up the paper at maturity, if they should ¬ and in giving this order they yielded to a moral obligation, which is a consideration for an express contract. The appropriation, then, being complete as an assignment of the fund by the agreement of the parties, even without the acceptance of the drawee, could not be revoked.
