V. ANSWER. -V-'
A Guardian is, in this respect, precise-
ly in the sam situation of any pdicr per
son. ? Nothing but gold or silver is a
awful lender in any case. But tho cred
itor, whether Gaurdian or' not, must no-
tily the officer before tho money is col
LctcdVtioVt take. any4lung.but par
money.' If ho fails to do this, and tlie
officer should collect his money in cur-
rout Bank Notes he, plaintiff, is then
bound to receive tho debt from, tho offi
cer in such money as ho collected from
Uicdoicnaarit.
