The question raised in this case relates to the amount for which judgment should be entered on the postea.
The action is in contract and the declaration is in the form of a declaration in debt. It is founded on a bond of defendants acknowledging their indebtedness to plaintiff in the sum of $2,800, and binding them, jointly and severally, to pay the same to plaintiff. It sets out a condition annexed to the bond and assigns a breach thereof.
The pleas were the general issue and pleas tending to contest the alleged breach of the condition.
