  Comments:
The example sentence given for 人払い shows a complete different word.


Sample Sentence:
この小切手は持参人払いだ。	This check is payable to the bearer.


In the sample sentence, the string of characters 人払い show up as part of a 
composite of 持参人 and 払い. 


Also, on a separate note, the nuance of 人払い is clearing out people to make room 
for an important person passing through or clearing out a room of people for a 
private conversation.  Didn't edit the entry since technically it's not mistaken, just a 
bit incomplete.
