“This was an action on the case brought to recover a balance due upon a judgment entered in the court of exchequer in Ireland, upon a bond and warrant of attorney to confess judgment, and also the amount of a note of hand for £300 sterling, which, by a settled account between the parties, it was agreed was to be paid out of the proceeds of a certain copper mine, in which these parties and others were concerned. It was admitted that the balance of the settled account, (excluding the note of hand), for which the bond and warrant of attorney were given, was for British sterling; the bond was for that amount in sterling generally, not mentioning whether British or Irish sterling, to be paid in Ireland; and the power of attorney: accompanying it was to confess judgment in some court in Ireland.”
