Debt was brought on an obligation for ioool. lawful money of North Carolina, dated 30th November 1786, conditioned for the payment of 500I. like lawful money on the 1st November 1787.

Decided 1801-11-15

Per curiam.

¶1It does not appear to us, that the bills of credit offered to be paid into court, are a legal tender, and therefore we cannot admit them to be brought into court. We cannot say, on the face' of the obligation, that the contract refers to such money.

¶2Judgment absolute.
