IMPLIED, contracts. An agreement to pay a bill, not by direct and express terms, but by such acts of the parties from which an express agreement may be inferred; for example, if the drawee write on it “seen,” “ presented,” or any other thing upon it, (as the day on which it becomes due,) this, unless explained by other circumstances, will constitute an acceptance.
