Eastern Bank v. Brown , 17 Me. 356 ( 1840 )

The opinion was by

Weston C. J.

The defendant having, on the inquiry of the messenger of the bank, directed him to leave his notices at the counting-room of Lincoln, Foster Co., where he kept his books, we are of opinion upon the whole, that, notices left in pursuance of this direction, until countermanded, or the messenger otherwise directed, ought to be deemed sufficient. This conclusion will best cofnport with the justice of the case; and it is one which leaves the defendant no fair ground of complaint.

New trial granted.
