The question occurred about a bill accepted by two debtors, retired with a blank indorsation, and found in the custody of one of them, whether this possession did not imply that the money was paid by him alone, so as to found an action of relief against the other, or whether the presumption must run, that both contributed equally to the discharge, since it did not relate to either in particular? The last presumption was sustained. See Appendix.

Fol. Dic. v. 2. p. 152.
