Bill accepted in 1719 payable on demand, being put in suit only in 1746 after the death of the acceptor, the Lords found that no action did lye for the money, notwithstanding a missive letter from the acceptor in 1720, excusing the not payment of the money, and promising annualrent, and some other circumstances to excuse the long taciturnity: And on another bill by the same acceptor Sir Thomas Moncrieff, to the same creditor Sir Hugh Moncrieff of Tippermalloch in 1736 for 1000 merks, payable on demand; the Lords found annualrent due only from the citation in this process. (See Dict. No. 7. p. 478 and No. 31. p. 1428..)
