according to statement we can say No Continental Gin can not force Hornbuckle to pay the remaining because when he get equipment and deposit money in to Continental Gin account that time he has no doubt or obligation by the payment

so if he have doubt now on payment, then he should have ask on that time when he endorsement this check is accepted in full payment
