  INSTALMENT, contracts. A part of a debt due by contract, and agreed to be 
  paid at a time different from that fixed for the, payment of the other part. 
  For example, if I engage to pay you one thousand dollars, in two payments, 
  one on the first clay of January, and the other on the first day of July, 
  each of these payments or obligations to pay will be an instalment . 
       2. In such case each instalment is a separate debt so far that it may 
  be tendered at any time, or the first may be sued for although the other 
  shall not be due. Dane's Ab. vol. iii. ch. 93, art. 3, s. 11, page 493, 4; 1 
  Esp. R. 129; Id. 226; 3 Salk. 6, 18: Esp. R. 235; 1 Maule & Selw. 706. 
       3. A debtor who by failing to pay three instalments of rent due on a 
  lease would forfeit his estate, may, in order to save it, tender one 
  instalment to prevent the forfeiture, although there may be two due at the 
  time, and he is not bound to tender both. 6 Toull. n. 688.
