for honour

Any stranger has a right to intervene in case of the non-acceptance, or non-payment of a bill of exchange. This is an established usage in commercial operations, and contributes essentially to their safety and certainty. To the drawer and endorsers, it saves the damages on the bill, which would be payable on its return, and prevents other heavy expenses.
