Newcomin against Leigh.
Hill. 1650. Banc. sup.
Pasch. 16••0. rot. 52.
LEigh did assume and promise unto Newcomin,* 1.1 that if Newcomin would take one Loe for his Debtor, in the room of one Cooper, and would spare Loe until such a time for the money, that then he would pay the mo∣ney to Newcomin, if he did not, and upon this Assumpsit Newcomin brought his Action against Leigh. The question was whether this were a good As∣sumpsit. And the Court held it was not, because it is a collateral thing, and he doth not say that he will discharge Cooper, and so Newcomin may sue Cooper notwithstanding the Assumpsit; For though it may be it was the intention of the parties to discharge Cooper, yet it appears not so by the words of the Assumpsit set forth: And it was then said by Roll. That if I promise to pay to Iohn a Down a Debt which Iohn a Stile oweth to Iohn a Down;* 1.2 this is nudum pactum.
