Assignment of a Bond.

Obs. 1. No assignment of a bond should be taken, unless there be evidence that the debt is still subsisting, as the courts have made it a rule to direct the jury to find a bond satisfied after a lapse of twenty years without demand or acknowledgement. 1 Ves. 51, (see 3 and 4 W. IV. c. 27, Appendix.)

2. On an assignment of a bond, notice must be given to the obligor, otherwise payment by him to the obligee will be good. As to the assignment of bonds and other choses in action, see Pref. § 1.

Assignment of a Bond and Judgment by a Husband and a Wife as a Security for a Debt.

Obs. Bonds being legal choses in action, a husband has not the power of assigning them; he has only the power of reducing them into possession during his life. If he assign them, the assignee standing in his place may, during his life, sue in the name of the husband; but if he die before the assignee has reduced them into possession, the right of action will survive to the wife, 1 Rep. Hus. and W. 225; and equity will not support the husband's assignment of a wife's bond, although made for a valuable consideration, Burnet v. Kinaston, 2 Freem. 259; S. C. 2 Vern. 401; Prec. in Cha. 121. Parker (in Prec. Cha. 412, Packer) v. Wyndham, Gilb. Rep. Eq. 98.
