  COUNTERMAND. This word signifies a. change or recall of orders previously 
  given. 
       2. It may be express or implied. Express, when contrary orders are 
  given and a revocation. of the former order is made. Implied, when a new 
  order is given which is inconsistent with the former order: as, if a man 
  should order a merchant to ship him in a particular vessel certain goods 
  which belonged to him, and then, before the goods were shipped, he directed 
  him to ship them in another vessel; this would be a countermand of the first 
  order. 
       3. While the first command is unrecalled, the person who gave it would 
  be liable to all the consequences in case he should be obeyed; but if, for 
  example, a man should command another to commit a crime and, before its 
  perpetration, he should repent and countermand it, he would not be liable 
  for the consequences if the crime should afterwards be committed. 
       4. When a command or order has been given, and property delivered, by 
  which a right vests in a third person, the party giving the order cannot 
  countermand it; for example, if a debtor should deliver to A a sum of money 
  to be paid to B, his creditor, B has a vested right in the money, and unless 
  he abandon that right, and refuse to take the money, the debtor cannot 
  recover it from A. 1 Roll. Ab. 32, pl. 13; Yelv. 164 Sty. 296. See 3 Co. 26
