Getchell v. Chase
Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court
Getchell v. Chase, 124 Mass. 366 (Mass. 1878)
1878 Mass. LEXIS 324
Gray
Getchell v. Chase
Opinion of the Court
Upon the facts stated in the trustee’s answer, the check was evidently given by him and received by the principal defendant as payment, and operated as such, at least until presentment and refusal, which in this case did not happen. Nothing therefore was due from the trustee to the defendant at the time of the service of this process. Pearce v. Davis, 1 Mood. & Rob. 365. Barnard v. Graves, 16 Pick. 41. Cushman v Libbey, 15 Gray, 358. Trustee discharged.
