I practice in Washington and you will need to confirm this locally with a lawyer in Montana, when a lender has funds on deposit from the borrower and the funds are due and not forthcoming ( a payment was missed ) the lender uses the right of set-off and they can deduct the payment from the funds on deposit.

The primary borrower may have had notice and usally they will notify the guarantor, however in my experince the withdrawal of the funds is notice. If you did not keep funds on deposit with the lender they would have called.

good luck
