Thomas Ganley, as Administrator v. the Troy City National Bank, Appellant

Summary

The Court affirmed the judgment for the administrator of Margaret Ganley's estate, holding that the breach of bailment contract claim accrued at the time of demand in 1879 and was therefore not barred by the statute of limitations. It also held that the treasury notes were Margaret's separate property, giving her husband no right to control them, and that any distributive share the husband might have received under the 1867 law was not a defense to the administrator's action.
