Two questions are presented in this record: (1) May a creditor who holds two notes, one an individual note and one a joint note of the same debtor, apply to either note as suits his pleasure an undirected general payment made by the debtor? (2) Will an undirected payment made by a debtor, who owes two notes to the same creditor, one of which is, and the other is not, barred by .the statute of limitations, raise the bar of the statute when applied by the creditor to the note against which the statute has run, so as. to revive the cause of action against the unpaid portion of the barred debt?
