Civ. App.) 33 S. W. 580; Coe v. Erb, 59 Ohio St. 259, 52 N. E. 640, 69 Am. St. Rep. 764.-Entering short. When bills not due are paid into a bank by a customer, it is the custom of some bankers not to carry the amount of the bills directly to his credit, but to "enter them short," as it is called, i. e., to note down the receipt of the bills, their amounts, and the times when they become due in a previous column of the page, and tbe amounts when received are carried forward into the usual cash column. Sometimes, instead of entering such bills short, bankers credit the customer directly with the amount of the bills as cash, charging interest on any advances they may make on their account, and allow ·him at once to draw upon them to that amount. If the banker becomes bankrupt~ the property in bills entered short does not pa to his asf signees, but the customer is entitled to them if they remain in his hands, or to ·their pr - ceeds, if received, subject to any lien the banker may have upon them.
