RULE. " Compute the interest to the time of the first paya, i ment; if that be one year or more from the time the in terest commenced, add it to the principal, and deduct the payment from the sum total. If there be after payments made, compute the interest on the balance due to the next payment, and then deduct the payment as above; and in like manner from one payment to another, till all the payments are alsorbed ; provided the time between one payment and another be one year or more. But if any payment be made before one year's interest hath accrued, then compute the interest on the principal sum due on the obligation for one year, add it to the principal, and compute the interest on the sum paid, from the time it was paid, up to the end of the year; add it to the sum paid, and deduct that sum from the principal and interest added as above.* “ If any payments be made of a less sum than the interest arisen at the time of such payment, no interest in to be computed but only on the principal sum for any weriod." Kirby's Reports, page 49. EXAMPLES. A bond, or note, dated January 4th, 1797, was given Tor 1000 dollars, interest at 6 per cent. and there were payments endorsed upon it as follows, viz. 1st payment February 19, 1798. 200 2d payment June 29, 1799. 500 3d payment November 14, 1799 260 I demand how much remains due on said note the 24th of December, 1800 ? 1000,00 dated January 4, 1797. 67,50 Interest to February 19, 1798=134 months. 1067,50 amount.

But if there be several payments made within the said time, find the amount of the several payments, from the time they were paid, to the time of scttlement, deduct their amount from the amount of the principal |
