GUARANTEE. He to whom a guaran- iy is made. This word is also used, as a noun. to denote the contract of guaranty or the obligation of a guarantor, and, as a verb. to denote the action of assuming the i'esIJonsihilitie.s of a guarantor. But on the general principle of legal orthography,—that the title of the person to whom the action passes over should end in "ee." as "donee," "grautee." "pa_vee_" "bailee," "drawee," etc., —it seems better to rise this word only as the correlative of "guarant.or." and to spell the verb, and also the name of the contract, "2linranty."

GUARANTY, n. A promise to answer for the payment of some debt, or the performance of some duty, in case of the failure of another person, who, in the flist instance, is liable to such payment or performance Gallagher v. Nichols. 60 N. Y. 444-, Andrews v. Pope, 126 N. C. 472, 35 S. E. 817: Deming v. Buil. 10 Conn. 400; Reigart v. White, 52 Pa. 438.
A guaranty is an undertaking by one person to be ansuerable for the payment of some debt, or the due perfoi-inance of some contract or duty, by another person, who himself remains liable to pay or perform the same. story, From. Notes, § 457.
A guaranty is a promise to answer for the debt, default, or uliscarriage of another person. Clvil Code Cal. E 27 .
A guaranty is it contract that some particular thing shall be done exactly as it is agreed to be done, whether it is to be done by one III.-lSOl.l or_ another, and whether there be a prior or Erincipai contiactor or not. Redfield v. Height.

The definition of a "guarnnty," by text-writers. is an undertaking by one person that an- other shall perform his contract or fulfill his obligation, or that, if he does not, the guarantor wili do it for him. A giiarantor of a bill or note is said to be one who engages that the note shuil be paid, but is not an indorser or surety. Gridiey v. Capen, 72 Ill. 13
Synonyms. The terms guaranty and si¢rct1/- ship are sometimes used interchangeably: but they should not be confounded. The contract of a surety corresponds with that of a guar- antor in many respects: yet important differences exist. The surety is bound with his pricnipal as an original promisor. He is a debtor from the beginning, and must see that the debt is paid, and is held ordinarily to know every default of his princlpai, and cannot protect hilllsl-‘if by the mere lndulgcnce of the cred itor, nor by want of notice of the default of ibi- principal. however such induigence or want of notice may in fact injure him. On the other hnnil, the contract of a guarantor is his own separate contract. It is in the nature of a warranty by him that the thing guarantieil to be done by the principal shall be done. not merely an engusenicnt jointly with the principal to do the thing. The original contract of the pi-'inci- pal is not his contract, and he is not bound to take notice of is non-performance. Therefore the are itor should give him notice; and it is univereaily heid that, if the guarantor can prove that he has suffered dnmage by the failure to give such notice. he will be discharged to the extent of the damage thus sustained. It is not so with a surety. Dnrluim v. ‘llanrow 2 N. Y. 543: Nnding v. I\Ic('-rcgor. 121 Ind. 4&7. 28 N. E. 283, 6 L. R. A. GSfi.
Gua-1-only and wrzrrimty are derived from the some root, and are in fact cty1:nolociciil.l_\- the same word, the "g" of the Norm in F men being interchangeable with the English " They are often used colioquialiv and in coinmercisl transactions as having the same signif- iciition, as where a piece of machinery or the produce of an estate is "guarantied" for a term of years, "warranted" being the more appropri- ate term in such a. case.

A distinction is also sometimes made in commercial usage, by which the term "guaranty" is understood as a coilaterai Wurranty (often a conditionai one) against some do- fanlt or event in the future, while the term "warmnly" is taken as meaning an absolute un-
