Rescription
French law. A rescription is a letter by which the maker requests some one to pay a certain sum of money, or to account for him to a third person for it
Letter
1) Common law, criminal law. An epistle; a despatch; a written message, usually on paper, which is folded up and sealed, sent by one person to another. 2) Contracts. In the civil law, locator, and in the French law, locateur, loueur, or bailleur, is he who, being the owner of a thing, lets it out to another for hire or compensation. 3) Civil law. The answer which the prince gave to questions of law which had been submitted to him by magistrates, was called letters or epistles. 4) Missive, English law. After a bill has been filed against a peer or peeress, or lord of parliament, a petition is presented to the lord chancellor for his letter, called a letter missive, which requests the defendant to appear and answer to the bill. A neglect to attend to this, places the defendant, in relation to such suit, on the same ground as other defendants, who are not peers, and a subpoena may then issue.
Maker
This term is applied to one who makes a promissory note and promises to pay it when due. He who makes a bill of exchange is called the drawer, and frequently in common parlance and in books of Reports we find the word drawer inaccurately applied to the maker of a promissory note.
Money
Gold, silver, and some other less precious metals, in the progress of civilization and commerce, have become the common standards of value; in order to avoid the delay and inconvenience of regulating their weight and quality whenever passed, the governments of the civilized world have caused them to be manufactured in certain portions, and marked with a Stamp which attests their value; this is called money.
Account
Practice. 1) A statement of the receipts and payments of an executor, administrator, or other trustee, of the estate confided to him. 2) An account is also the statement of two merchants or others who have dealt together, showing the debits and credits between them.
