If Westminster has no defense at all against Bath, for how much may Whiltshire collect from Westminster? a. None, as Whiltshire's remedy is to run after his debtor, Bath. b. Php300,000.00, as he is a holder for value to the extent of the difference between Bath's debt and the value of the note. c. Php500,000.00, as he is a holder for value to the extent of his lien. d. Php800,000.00, but with the obligation to hold Php500,000.00 for Bath's benefit.
