99. Noting.-
When a promissory note or bill of exchange has been dishonoured
by non-acceptance or non-payment, the holder may cause such
dishonour to be noted by a notary public upon the instrument,
or upon a paper attached thereto, or partly upon each,
Such note must be made within a reasonable time after dishonour,
and must specify the date of dishonour, the reason, if any
assigned for such dishonour, or if the instrument has not
been expressly dishonoured, the reason why the holder treats
it as dishonoured, and the notary’s charges.
