Legal holiday. A day appointed by law to be kept as a holiday.  Contracts falling due on a legal
holiday are settled on the preceding day. Where two holidays occur on consecutive days contracts
falling due on the second of the holidays are settled on the succeeding day.  Stocks sold on
Friday on the New York Stock Exchange in the regular way (deliverable the next day) are not
required to be delivered until Monday, Saturday being a half-holiday. The return of money loaned
on call on Friday cannot be demanded until Monday. Time contracts falling due on Saturday are
settled on Friday and those falling due on Sunday are settled on Monday (or the next business
day if Monday is a holiday).
