an entry of goods sold and delivered to a customer is made.
     2. It is kept by the buyer, and sent to the merchant whenever he wishes
to purchase any. article. It ought to be a counterpart of the merchant's
books, as far as regards the customer's account.
     3. Among English bankers, the term pass book is given to a small book
made up from time to time, from the banker's ledger, and forwarded to the
customer; this is not considered as a statement of account between the
parties, yet when the customer neglects for a long time to make any
objection to the correctness of the entries he will be bound by them. 2 Atk.
