Payment may be made in any thing which the creditor will accept as payment. Louden v. Birt, 4 Ind. R. 566.

The count for money had and received, &e., is sustained by proof that the defendant had received property which might be presumed to have been converted into money. Helvey v. The Board, &c., 6 Blackf. 317.

On the evidence, the judgment in this case is right; and it is affirmed with 5 per cent damages and costs.
