1Opinion of the CourtBurnett, J.
The action was brought to recover the sum of $3,000 and interest, alleged to be due upon a promissory note of decedent in favor of respondent executed April 15, 1902. All the allegations of the complaint are admitted except the one in reference to nonpayment, which is denied, and there is an affirmative allegation in the answer “that said promissory note was fully paid, satisfied and discharged by said intestate, Theodore A. Light, during his lifetime.” The only question, then, on this appeal is, as stated by appellant, based upon said averment of full payment.
